Original Grapple SET with 3000 Lb. Mini Skid Steer Quick Attach Frame
$1,172.50 – $4,424.00
Frame
Modular quick-attach frames can be used with Artillian pallet forks, grapples, stump buckets, hydraulic plows, & more. Includes built-in 2-inch receiver.
These fit Mini Track Loaders with the Common Industry Interface (CII) loader quick attach, including: Bobcat (with CII) | Boxer | Cormidi | Ditch Witch | Kanga | Ramrod | Toro | Vermeer
Grapple
The Artillian Sectional Grapple System mounts on the Artillian Pallet Fork Frame. Mix & match sections to best accomplish your tasks.
Grapple sections include hydraulic hoses, ready to plug into our hydraulic diverter kits, and go right to work!
When using Artillian Grapples on tractors with greater than 32 HP or with “True 3rd Function” hydraulics, we recommend adding the Artillian Hydraulic Flow Control Valve to provide the operator with additional control over the opening and closing speed of the grapple.
Using more than one Grapple requires a Hydraulic Splitter Manifold
Made in the USA
Frame
- MIG Welded Construction – Engineered for strength and professionally handcrafted
- Quality Materials – Built entirely in the USA with high-strength North American steel
- JDQA Hooks – Reinforced with cap plates for extra strength
- Durable Protection – Baked-on powder coat is augmented by our proprietary graphite coating on the fork rails for the easiest sliding of attachments
- Chain Slots – For 5/16 inch (8 mm) link chain at all four corners for easy lifting and securing of loads
- Trussed Frame – Every pound of excess weight is removed without losing strength
- Super High-Strength Upper & Lower Fork Rails – No cheap-formed steel here. Our frames are built like a real forklift carriage. These rails are laser cut from extremely high-strength and wear-resistant North American steel
Grapple
- Unlimited Uses – Designed for brush, roots, rocks, firewood processing, land grading, etc. This system can be used for work above or below grade
- Quality Components – We use welded hydraulic cylinders for better durability and longer life over the low-budget tie rod cylinders used by others
- Versatile – The rake sections can be used for widening the Grapple bed or by themselves as a ground scouring fire rake and all-purpose rock bucket. Clear away brush, grade the soil, and then scoop up the waste and haul it away
- Quick Installation – Permanently attached fast-action hardware secures Grapple and Rake Sections to the Artillian pallet fork frame in seconds
- Simple Connections – Grapple Sections include hydraulic hoses with 1/4″ male quick disconnect tips to plug right into our Diverter Kits
- Low Maintenance – Our Grapple hinge bushings are made of a custom high-load and high-wear-life material similar to carbon fiber, which requires no lubrication or maintenance
- Construction – CAD designed, CNC cut from high-strength North American steel and MIG welding
- Finish – Powder-coat black
- Choose combinations of Sectional Grapple and Rake Sections
- These units attach to Artillian Pallet Fork Frames
- Grapple Sections require a 3rd loader function, such as our Diverter Kits
- Grapples are rated for use on tractors below 50 HP
Frame
Designed for a maximum load of 3000 lbs. (1360 kg) at 18 inches (46 cm) Load Center. The maximum load may be limited by attachment weights.
- Frame Weight: 103 lbs. (46.72 kg)
- Built-in 2-inch hitch receiver
- Lift capacity: 3000 lbs.
- Side load capacity: 2000 lbs.
- Frame Rails: ½” thick ASTM A514/T-1 Alloy Steel
- Tubes: ASTM A513 Steel
- Mounting Trusses: ¼” HRPO 1010 Steel
- JDQA Hooks: ¼” ASTM A572 Grade 50 Steel
- JDQA Pins: Low Carbon Steel
- SSQA Plates: ¼” ASTM A572 Grade 50 Steel
- MSSQA Plates: ¼” ASTM A572 Grade 50 Steel
Grapple
Powerful – Each Grapple Section can provide up to 1020 lbs. of clamping force at the tips. Using multiple grapples doubles or triples these capabilities. On the high-force hinge setting, three grapples can apply over 3000 lbs. of crushing clamping force at the tips!
High Strength – Both Grapple and Rake Sections are made primarily of 3/8-inch thick ultra-high-strength and wear-resistant steel.
- Tines, Spine Plate, & Cylinder Mounts: 3/8” thick AR400 Abrasion Resistant Alloy Steel
- Tubes: ASTM A513 Steel
- Gussets: ¼” HRPO 1010 Steel
Lightweight – Through extensive engineering, a typical Rake-Grapple-Rake setup weighs about the same as your bucket but is far stronger than competitive products. These Grapples harness over 5000 lbs. of hydraulic cylinder force, but weigh just 90 lbs. Each Rake Section weighs just 40 lbs.
Compact: Grapple is 26” Long X 14-1/4” Wide X 23” High (not including hoses)
Using more than one Grapple requires a Hydraulic Splitter Manifold
These will only fit Artillian fork frames
Grapple Performance:
- Grapples are rated for use on tractors below 50 HP
- Grapple closing/opening time: 0.5-1 second
- Clamping force at the tips:
| Tractor Hydraulic Pressure, psi | Tip Force (max), lbs. | |
|---|---|---|
| @ Wide Open Setting | @ High Force Setting | |
| 3000 | 700 | 1020 |
| 2800 | 650 | 950 |
| 2500 | 570 | 850 |
| 2200 | 500 | 750 |
Clamping force varies through the range of clamp rotation and also depends on your tractor’s hydraulic pressure.
