Made of tough A-572 alloy steel, the Rancher Series grapples come in sizes from 69 inches to 94 inches and can be made to fit virtually any carrier.  It features an extra-wide, 75-inch opening for picking up large round bales, square bales or large brush piles. The 8-inch tine spacing provides the ability to forward and back rake fine hay and debris into easily manageable piles of material that can be picked up and relocated.

These grapples also feature serrated edges, which provide an extra strong bite and hold on loads, preventing them from slipping. Complete with 3,000 psi, heavy-duty welded cylinders, these grapples have outstanding clamping power for secure loads.

Long-time rancher Gerald Scholz explains a few features of his new Rancher Series grapple.

“The 8-inch spacing between the tines is perfect for picking up both small and large materials,” Scholz said. “And, as another great feature, there are wedges on the front of the fork, which will actually lift your dirt up, hold larger rocks tightly, then let the dirt fall out; it’s like a sifting effect.”

The new grapple provides livestock professionals a hardworking tool to reduce labor, increase efficiency and to simplify projects and chores. Great for maintaining fence rows, pulling fence posts, carrying fence posts, feeding livestock, placing heavy bales into feeders without damaging the feeders, picking up large amounts of silage or manure, and cleaning feedlots and pens.
