| Skid Steer Brush Grapple GRX-80
More of what you want! Announcing the GRX-TREME series of grapples. While our competitors keep trying to make cheaper versions of our grapples, we have been working on ways of making them bigger, stronger and more powerful.
The GRX-TREME - 80 features 13 raker teeth with 12 top grapple teeth. The main tine width is 5/8" while the outer grapple teeth are 3/4" thick. All tines are made from AR-400. The maximum opening of this grapple is 65" as opposed to our standard heavy duty series which opens 51" and closed it measures 38" high. Actual Width is 80". Weight is a heavy 1365 lbs.
It uses 2 x (3" x 10") Stroke welded Skid Steer grade US made 3000 PSI cylinders (we never use import or agricultural cylinders). These cylinders are protected behind the main frame so they cannot be damaged. The hoses are routed internally behind the frame to keep them out of harm. Any exposed hoses are protected with nylon hose wrap.
There is a main rear beam that runs through the back of the bottom tines. This is for added strength. Think of it as a floor beam in your house, you could lay your boards across your joists, but what really holds the weight is the beam. Our grapple beam is uses 3/8" wall steel tubing measuring 8" x 6". Any way you look at it, this is one mean grapple. It is recommended for those of you with bigger machines, 80 HP and above and those of you looking for extreme duty performance.
Any way you look at it, this is a professionally built piece of equipment built by people who know skid steer loaders.
A lot of our competitors have been making their grapples cheaper and cheaper and have been trying to convince you that theirs are better. Read what we have to say about it in our latest Technical Paper.
