Skid Steer Grapples by TGEC

Skid steer grapples are hydraulic clamping attachments that mount via the universal quick-attach plate, turning auxiliary hydraulic flow into gripping force for handling bales, rocks, logs, debris and bulky materials. TGEC builds each grapple with heavy-duty steel, hydraulic cylinders and quick-attach frames compatible with standard and high-flow skid steer systems.

Recommended Products

TGEC skid steer grapples come in three application-focused configurations: hay bale grab for farm use, rock grapple for land clearing and debris, and log grapple for forestry and timber work. Each is detailed on its product page with specifications, hydraulic requirements and options.

Application Scenarios

Agricultural work: Handles round and square hay bales, silage bales and farm materials with secure clamping.
Land clearing: Moves rocks, roots, brush, stumps and demolition debris with skeleton tines that sift soil while retaining bulky items.
Forestry work: Lifts, rotates and positions logs, poles and timber with 180-degree hydraulic rotation.
Landscaping: Handles boulders, retaining wall blocks, nursery stock and bulky landscape materials with grip.
Recycling: Sorts and moves construction debris, scrap metal, green waste and recyclables in yards.
Municipal work: Clears storm debris, moves roadside brush and supports vegetation management.

Machine Compatibility

TGEC skid steer grapples use the universal quick-attach interface, compatible with Bobcat, Caterpillar, Case, New Holland, John Deere, Kubota, Takeuchi and most standard skid steer and compact track loaders. Hydraulic grapples require auxiliary flow of 40-80 L/min with pressure up to 20 MPa. Mini loader models fit compact equipment with narrower frames.

Verify your machine rated operating capacity (ROC), auxiliary hydraulic flow and mounting interface before selecting. Provide your skid steer make and model, and the TGEC team will confirm compatibility and recommend the grapple.
