Grapple Bucket | Skid Steer Attachment | Hydraulic | 9,500 lb Grapple Force | Independent Tines | 3/4" x 6" Cutting Edge | Up to 75 HP | Quick Attach | 60"–84"

When you're moving brush piles, loading demolition debris, or cleaning up after storm damage, you need an attachment that does more than just grab and go. The Standard Duty Grapple Bucket from Loflin Manufacturing is built to handle three essential tasks in a single pass—and that's exactly why contractors, landscapers, and property owners across the country count on it every day.

This grapple bucket rakes away debris, secures it into a manageable pile, and gives you the control to move it wherever the job demands. The round bottom bar doubles as a backfill tool, so you're not switching attachments mid-project. You'll load logs, brush, rocks, building materials, and demolition debris without breaking stride. It's designed to separate dirt from rock or lumber with minimal effort, which means cleaner piles and faster sorting on-site.

Forge Claw is proud to distribute this attachment because it delivers real productivity gains where it matters most—on the job site. Larger capacity means fewer trips back and forth. Fewer trips means lower fuel costs, less machine wear, and shorter project timelines. You'll finish faster and keep labor costs down without cutting corners on quality or safety.

The hydraulic cylinders on this grapple bucket operate independently, so uneven loads aren't a problem. Whether you're picking up a twisted pile of tree limbs or grabbing a mix of rock and dirt, the grapples adjust to grip securely. That independent action gives you better control and reduces the chance of material slipping or shifting during transport.

Loflin Manufacturing encloses the cylinders and hoses as a standard feature. That's not a premium upgrade—it's how this bucket comes from the factory. Protected hydraulics mean less downtime for repairs and fewer replacement parts over the life of the attachment. You're not constantly checking for leaks or replacing damaged hoses because they're shielded from debris, branches, and job-site hazards.

The tines curve upward to slide smoothly across the ground without tearing up topsoil or snagging underground utilities. If you're working on finished landscapes, near gas lines, or around irrigation systems, that upward curve protects what's below while still giving you the aggressive grab you need above ground.

This grapple bucket delivers 9,500 pounds of grappling force through a pair of 2-inch by 10-inch cylinders. That's enough power to secure heavy loads without overworking your skid steer's hydraulic system. It's recommended for machines with 75 horsepower or less, so it pairs well with compact and mid-size skid steers that are common on residential and light commercial projects.

Forge Claw stocks this attachment in multiple widths—60, 66, 72, 78, and 84 inches—so you can match the bucket to your machine and your typical load sizes. Custom sizes are also available if your operation demands it. Every unit comes equipped with Parker brand hoses, fittings, and couplers, which means it's job-site ready the moment it arrives. You're not hunting down adapters or making extra trips to the hydraulic shop.

The quick attach plate is reinforced to handle repeated cycles of loading and dumping without flexing or cracking. Oversized, greasable pins measure 1¼ inches and provide smooth, reliable movement even after hundreds of hours in tough conditions. A treaded step gives you safe footing when you need to climb up and check a load or clear debris from the tines.

The bottom of the bucket is built from ¼-inch reinforced steel and comes standard with a ¾-inch by 6-inch cutting edge. That edge helps you scrape ground level clean and bite into compacted material when needed. If you want even more versatility, you can add the optional bolt-on reversible double edge for extended wear life and the ability to flip the edge when one side dulls.

The opening width measures just under 32 inches, giving you a wide bite that captures more material per scoop. The reinforced back and bottom are designed to take the punishment that comes with loading sharp rocks, concrete chunks, and knotted root balls. This isn't a light-duty attachment dressed up with marketing language—it's a working tool built by a manufacturer that understands what happens on real job sites.

Whether you're running a tree service, managing a landscape installation, clearing land for new construction, or maintaining trails and pastures, this grapple bucket gives you the flexibility to tackle multiple tasks without changing attachments. That's time saved, which translates directly into more billable hours and happier clients.

This is the kind of attachment that pays for itself faster than you'd expect.

When you can rake, grab, and backfill without stopping to swap attachments, you're simply more productive.

The ability to rake, grab, and backfill in a single pass saves you from constant attachment changes. That means less downtime, less wear on your quick attach system, and more time actually moving material. When you're billing by the hour or working against a deadline, that efficiency translates directly into profit.

Lower labor costs come naturally when one operator and one machine can do the work that used to require multiple hands and several pieces of equipment. You'll reduce the size of your crew on certain jobs or redeploy workers to other tasks, which improves overall productivity across your operation.

Durability is built into every part of this grapple bucket. The enclosed hydraulics, reinforced steel construction, and oversized pins are designed to hold up under punishment. You're not replacing hoses every few months or welding cracks in the frame. That reliability means fewer service interruptions and lower long-term ownership costs.

The independent cylinder action gives you real-world advantages when loads aren't perfectly balanced. Tree limbs don't stack neatly, and demolition debris doesn't sort itself into even piles. This grapple adjusts to the material, not the other way around, so you spend less time repositioning and more time loading.

Larger capacity means fewer trips to the burn pile, dumpster, or sorting area. Whether you're clearing a lot, cleaning up after a storm, or moving materials around a construction site, you'll cover more ground in less time. Fuel savings, reduced machine hours, and faster project completion all contribute to a better bottom line.

The protected tines and smooth ground contact make this grapple bucket a smart choice for working near utilities, irrigation systems, and finished landscapes. You won't tear up lawns or catch on buried cables, which reduces the risk of costly repairs and keeps clients happy.

When you order from Forge Claw, you're getting more than just an attachment. You're getting free nationwide shipping, honest advice, and the confidence that comes from working with a distributor that understands your needs. Combine that with Loflin Manufacturing's reputation for quality, and you've got a tool you can count on for years.

This grapple bucket is ideal for contractors handling land clearing, storm cleanup, demolition debris removal, and general site preparation. Landscapers will appreciate the ability to move rock, mulch, and plant material without switching attachments. Tree service professionals rely on it for loading brush, logs, and stumps quickly and safely. Farm and ranch owners use it to clear fence lines, manage pasture debris, and handle a wide range of property maintenance tasks.

It's designed to work with skid steers rated at 75 horsepower or less and fits standard universal quick attach mounting systems. Before ordering, confirm your machine's hydraulic flow and pressure specifications to ensure optimal performance. The Parker hydraulic components are industry-standard and compatible with most skid steer hydraulic systems.

For best results, grease the pins regularly and inspect hoses and fittings before each use. Even though the hydraulics are fully protected, a quick visual check helps catch small issues before they become big problems. When working in rocky or abrasive conditions, inspect the cutting edge periodically and rotate or replace it as needed to maintain performance.

If you're new to grapple buckets, start with lighter loads to get a feel for how the independent cylinders respond. Once you're comfortable with the controls, you'll find this attachment intuitive and easy to operate. Keep the tines clear of packed dirt and debris to maintain full range of motion, and avoid overloading beyond your skid steer's rated capacity.
