Rock Grapple

  Share

 
The Rock grapple or five-fingered rock grapple is an extremely versatile attachment that allows the holding or clamping of objects into its two arms. The rock grapple adds to the versatility of the excavator, as it provides picking and placement of rocks, for marinas, landscaping, quarries and other applications that require extensive lift and carry or lift and load operations.

The rock grapple can be fitted to all excavators whether or not they have a quickhitch fitted with the same mounting brackets fitted.

There are no hydraulics or modifications required to the existing excavator stick, and are available in kit form for on-site assembly


Performance Statement

High performance excavator rock grapple from eiengineering will improve your productivity and performance through:

Improved geometry for more efficient loading and unloading of material

Heavy duty robust construction for increased strength and durability

Specially designed for superior performance

What to look for in a Rock Grapple

Superior design for more efficient load management

Designed for your particular application

Wear protection on grapple finger edges

High strength steel used in construction


eiengineering Rock Grapple Design

Our engineers calculate the proportions for the materials being loaded with the lifting capacity of the machine.

The finger protection ensures that the load has a minimum possibility of slippage

Can be fitted to machines with or without quickhitches.

All eiengineering Rock grapples are made from Bisalloy, which is 3.1 times stronger than mild steel. This ensures more strength and less weight which means greater capacities, less fuel consumption and less load on the excavator.

Rock Grapples are fitted with extra wear tips on each of the fingers of the grapple for highly abrasive applications


The Benefits

The benefits you will experience are:

Earn more money moving more material and different material types

Reduce fuel costs – normally hard to load objects require less time loading, carrying and unloading.

Increased safety as there is no need to balance large loads on bucket edges

Save time – easier loading means less time behind the controls, saving fuel and employee costs

Reduced servicing costs because the excavator is not working as hard

Bisalloy construction means longer working life of the attachment and less downtime carrying out expensive repairs or modifications
 

What you get as standard

All of our Rock Grapples are delivered with dipper arm bracket.
