Video Overview
Overview

When you're moving large square bales across the farm, loading trailers at the end of a long day, or stacking hay in the barn before weather rolls in, you need an attachment that works as hard as you do. The Wheel Loader Bale Spear – Series 4 XD from Stinger Attachments is built to handle the demanding pace of hay season without slowing you down. Designed specifically for wheel loaders and telehandlers, this bale mover lets you transport large square bales quickly, safely, and efficiently — cutting down on the hours you spend shuttling hay and giving you more time to focus on everything else that needs your attention.

Manufactured by Stinger Attachments and distributed nationwide by Forge Claw, the Series 4 XD Bale Spear is engineered for operators who need to move serious volume without compromising on safety or durability. Whether you're running a cattle operation, managing a commercial hay business, or working with a contractor who needs reliable logistics support during harvest, this attachment delivers the performance you expect from American-made equipment. It's not just about moving one bale at a time — this spear is designed to handle two large square bales simultaneously with the addition of optional bolt-on supports, doubling your efficiency and reducing trips back and forth across the field or lot.

The 61-inch design provides the reach and stability you need to confidently handle heavy, awkward loads. Large square bales can weigh anywhere from 800 to over 1,500 pounds depending on moisture content and crop type, and moving them safely requires more than just brute strength. The Series 4 XD is built with heavy-duty construction that stands up to repeated use in tough conditions. From frozen ground in winter feeding operations to dusty summer fields during first cutting, this bale spear keeps working season after season.

One of the standout features of this attachment is the optional bolt-on support system. These supports aren't just an accessory — they're a game-changer if you're moving bales in any kind of volume. They create a secure cradle that keeps two bales stable during transport, even over uneven ground or when making tight turns. That means fewer dropped bales, less wasted time repositioning loads, and greater confidence when you're working near buildings, equipment, or other obstacles. For operations that move dozens or hundreds of bales in a day, this kind of efficiency adds up fast.

The Series 4 XD is offered with a wide range of ISO agricultural and construction mounts, which means it's designed to fit the machine you already own. Whether you're running a compact wheel loader, a larger agricultural loader, or a telehandler, Stinger Attachments has engineered this bale spear to integrate seamlessly with your equipment. That compatibility matters because it means you're not forced into costly workarounds or custom fabrication just to get an attachment mounted and working. You order the right mount, bolt it on, and you're ready to move hay.

Forge Claw is proud to distribute Stinger Attachments products because they consistently deliver the kind of quality and performance that operators depend on. We've worked with farm owners, ranch managers, and agricultural contractors across the country, and we know what it takes to earn trust in this industry. It's not flashy marketing or empty promises — it's durable equipment that shows up ready to work and keeps performing year after year. That's exactly what you get with the Series 4 XD Bale Spear.

This attachment is built in the USA, which means it's manufactured to exacting standards with quality materials and skilled craftsmanship. When you invest in American-made equipment, you're not just supporting domestic manufacturing — you're getting a product that's engineered to withstand the kind of abuse that comes with real-world agricultural work. Stinger Attachments doesn't cut corners, and it shows in the welds, the steel, and the overall build quality of every unit that leaves their facility.

From a practical standpoint, the Series 4 XD Bale Spear makes your operation more efficient in ways that directly impact your bottom line. Moving two bales at once instead of one cuts your fuel costs, reduces wear and tear on your loader, and frees up labor for other tasks. If you're paying someone by the hour to shuttle bales, cutting that time in half has an immediate return on investment. Even if you're doing the work yourself, getting done faster means more time for maintenance, family, or simply getting ahead on the next project.

The design is straightforward and functional, which is exactly what you want in a piece of equipment that's going to see daily use during peak season. There aren't a lot of complicated moving parts or finicky adjustments — just a solid spear with robust supports that do exactly what they're supposed to do. That simplicity translates to reliability, and reliability is what keeps your operation running smoothly when the pressure is on.

Forge Claw offers free nationwide shipping on this bale spear, just like we do on all our heavy machinery attachments. That means you can order with confidence knowing there won't be surprise fees or complicated freight arrangements to navigate. We handle the logistics so you can focus on what matters — running your operation and getting your hay moved safely and efficiently. Plus, we offer flexible financing options that make it easier to get the equipment you need without straining your cash flow during an already expensive time of year.

Benefits

The most immediate benefit of the Series 4 XD Bale Spear is the time savings. Moving two bales at once instead of one cuts your hauling time in half, plain and simple. If you're moving 100 bales from the field to storage, that's 50 trips instead of 100. Those saved trips add up to hours you can spend on other tasks, whether that's equipment maintenance, fence repair, or just getting ahead on tomorrow's work. Time is your most valuable resource during hay season, and this attachment gives you more of it.

There's also a real cost advantage that goes beyond labor savings. Fewer trips mean less fuel consumed, less wear on tires, and reduced engine hours on your loader or telehandler. Over the course of a season, that reduction in operating costs can be substantial. If you're running a commercial operation or managing a large herd, those savings directly improve your margins. Even for smaller operations, the reduced fuel and maintenance costs help offset the investment in quality equipment.

Durability is another major benefit that sets the Series 4 XD apart. This isn't a light-duty attachment that'll bend or crack after a few hundred bales. It's built with heavy-duty steel and designed to handle the kind of punishment that comes with moving dense, heavy loads day after day. You're not going to be welding repairs or replacing parts every season. The attachment is engineered to last, which means you're making a one-time investment in a tool that'll serve your operation for years.

Productivity improvements extend beyond just moving bales faster. The stability provided by the optional bolt-on supports means you can travel at higher speeds without worrying about losing a bale mid-transport. You can take corners more confidently and navigate uneven terrain without constantly slowing down or stopping to reposition loads. That consistent, reliable performance keeps your operation running smoothly and reduces the frustration and downtime that comes with dropped or shifted loads.

Safety is a benefit that's easy to overlook but critically important. Large square bales are awkward, heavy, and potentially dangerous if they shift or fall during transport. The secure support system on the Series 4 XD minimizes that risk, protecting both your equipment and anyone working nearby. Fewer accidents mean fewer injuries, less damaged equipment, and lower insurance costs. It's the kind of peace of mind that lets you focus on getting the job done instead of worrying about what could go wrong.

From a return on investment perspective, the Series 4 XD Bale Spear pays for itself quickly in any operation that handles large square bales regularly. Whether you're a custom hay hauler, a dairy farmer, or a cattle rancher, the combination of time savings, reduced operating costs, and improved efficiency creates measurable value. You'll notice the difference in your first season, and that value compounds year after year as the attachment continues to perform without major repairs or replacement.

Additional Information

The Series 4 XD Bale Spear is ideal for a wide range of users and environments. If you're running a commercial hay operation, this attachment is a must-have for keeping up with the demands of harvest season. Custom operators who move bales for multiple clients will appreciate the speed and efficiency gains. Cattle ranchers and dairy farmers who handle large volumes of hay for winter feeding will find this spear indispensable. Even smaller farms and hobby operations benefit from the time savings and ease of use, especially if you're working alone or with limited help.

Compatibility is straightforward as long as you select the correct ISO mount for your specific wheel loader or telehandler. Stinger Attachments offers multiple mount options to fit a variety of machines, so it's important to verify your equipment's mount type before ordering. If you're unsure, Forge Claw's team is available to help you identify the right configuration. Proper mounting ensures safe operation and maximizes the attachment's performance, so don't skip this step.

Operating the bale spear is simple, but a few best practices will help you get the most out of it. Always approach bales squarely and at a consistent height to ensure even penetration. When using the dual bale supports, make sure both bales are seated securely before lifting or moving. Take your time on the first few loads to get a feel for how the attachment handles weight and balance. Once you're comfortable, you'll be able to work quickly and confidently. Keep an eye on ground conditions — wet or muddy terrain can affect traction and stability, so adjust your speed accordingly.

Maintenance requirements are minimal, which is one of the advantages of a well-built, straightforward design. Inspect welds and structural components regularly for any signs of cracking or wear, especially during heavy use periods. Keep the spear tips clean and free of debris to ensure easy penetration. If you've added the bolt-on supports, check the bolts periodically to make sure they're tight and secure. A little preventive maintenance goes a long way toward keeping this attachment in top working condition for years to come.

How does moving two bales at once improve my operation's efficiency?

The Series 4 XD Bale Spear with optional bolt-on supports cuts your hauling time in half by enabling dual bale transport. If you're moving 100 large square bales from field to storage, that's 50 trips instead of 100. Those saved trips translate directly to reduced fuel consumption, fewer engine hours on your loader or telehandler, and less wear on tires and drivetrain components.

For commercial hay operations or ranches handling serious volume during peak season, this efficiency gain means more time for other critical tasks like equipment maintenance, fence repair, or simply getting ahead on tomorrow's work. The time and cost savings compound throughout the season, with measurable reductions in both labor hours and operating expenses that directly improve your bottom line.

Will this bale spear fit my wheel loader or telehandler?

The Series 4 XD is offered with multiple ISO agricultural and construction mount options designed to fit a wide range of wheel loaders and telehandlers. Stinger Attachments engineered this bale spear to integrate seamlessly with your existing equipment, whether you're running a compact wheel loader, larger agricultural loader, or telehandler.

The key is selecting the correct ISO mount type for your specific machine. Before ordering, verify your equipment's mount configuration to ensure proper fitment. If you're unsure about which mount option you need, Forge Claw's team can help identify the right configuration for your machine. Proper mounting is essential for safe operation and maximizing the attachment's performance, so taking time to confirm compatibility upfront ensures you'll be moving bales efficiently from day one.

What makes the bolt-on support system worth the investment?

The optional bolt-on supports are a genuine productivity multiplier if you're moving bales in any significant volume. These supports create a secure cradle that keeps two bales stable during transport, even over uneven ground or when making tight turns around buildings and equipment. The stability they provide means you can travel at higher speeds without worrying about losing a bale mid-transport, which keeps your operation running smoothly and reduces frustration.

Fewer dropped bales means less wasted time repositioning loads and less crop loss from damaged bales. For operations moving dozens or hundreds of bales daily, the efficiency gains pay for the supports quickly through reduced fuel costs, saved labor hours, and improved throughput. The investment makes particular sense for custom operators, commercial hay businesses, or large cattle operations where time truly equals money during harvest season.

How does this attachment hold up to daily use during hay season?

The Series 4 XD is built with heavy-duty steel construction and professional-grade welds specifically to withstand the demanding pace of daily agricultural use. Large square bales create tremendous stress on equipment through repeated lifting, carrying, and stacking operations, especially when you're working with bales at maximum moisture content or density. This attachment is engineered to handle that punishment season after season without bending, cracking, or requiring constant repairs.

The American-made construction quality means you're getting materials and craftsmanship that meet exacting standards, not overseas shortcuts. Operators report using these bale spears for years without structural issues, moving thousands of bales through conditions ranging from frozen winter ground to dusty summer fields. Minimal maintenance requirements and robust design mean you spend time moving hay, not fixing equipment.

What safety advantages does this bale spear provide?

Large square bales are inherently dangerous to handle due to their awkward dimensions and substantial weight, often exceeding 1,500 pounds. The Series 4 XD addresses these safety concerns through its secure support system that minimizes the risk of bales shifting or falling during transport. The optional bolt-on supports create a stable platform that keeps loads secure even when navigating uneven terrain, making tight turns, or working near buildings and other equipment.

This stability protects both your operators and anyone working nearby, reducing the likelihood of accidents that can result in serious injuries or equipment damage. The 61-inch spear length provides proper penetration depth for balanced load distribution, preventing tipping or uncontrolled shifts. From an operational standpoint, fewer accidents mean lower insurance costs, less downtime, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your team can work confidently without unnecessary risk.

How quickly will this attachment pay for itself?

Return on investment happens quickly for any operation handling large square bales regularly. The combination of halved hauling time, reduced fuel consumption, and lower equipment wear creates measurable value from your first season. If you're paying hourly labor to move bales, cutting that time in half has an immediate financial impact. Even owner-operators benefit substantially by reclaiming hours that can be spent on revenue-generating activities or essential maintenance tasks.

Custom hay haulers moving bales for multiple clients will see the efficiency gains translate directly to increased daily capacity and improved profitability. The durability of the Series 4 XD means you're making a one-time investment rather than replacing cheaper equipment every few seasons. Over a five to ten year service life, the total cost of ownership is significantly lower than alternatives while delivering superior performance throughout.

What maintenance does this bale spear require?

One of the advantages of the Series 4 XD's straightforward design is minimal maintenance requirements. During heavy use periods, regularly inspect welds and structural components for any signs of cracking or unusual wear. Keep the spear tips clean and free of accumulated debris to ensure easy penetration into bales. If you've added the bolt-on supports, periodically check that mounting bolts remain tight and secure, especially after the first few days of operation when everything is settling in.

Beyond these basic checks, the attachment requires little ongoing attention. There aren't complicated hydraulic systems, moving parts, or finicky adjustments to maintain. A simple preventive maintenance routine keeps this bale spear performing reliably for years. The robust construction means you won't be welding repairs or replacing worn components every season like you might with lighter-duty alternatives. Quality engineering reduces your maintenance burden so you can focus on productivity.

Can I use this for applications beyond moving hay bales?

While the Series 4 XD is specifically designed and optimized for handling large square bales, the robust construction and versatile design make it suitable for moving other bundled materials as well. Operators use similar spear attachments for transporting compressed straw bundles, bedding material packages, and other agricultural products that are bound in similar square configurations. The heavy-duty build quality means the attachment can handle a variety of dense, heavy loads beyond just hay.

However, the spear length and spacing are engineered primarily with large square bales in mind, so effectiveness with other materials depends on their dimensions and binding method. The attachment excels at what it's built for: efficiently and safely moving the rectangular bales that are standard in modern hay production and livestock operations. For dedicated bale handling, this specialized design delivers better results than trying to adapt general-purpose material handling equipment.

How does American-made construction benefit me as an equipment owner?

American manufacturing represents more than patriotic preference; it translates to tangible quality advantages in materials, craftsmanship, and engineering standards. Stinger Attachments manufactures the Series 4 XD in the USA using quality steel and skilled welders who understand the demands of agricultural equipment. Domestic production means stricter quality control throughout the manufacturing process, from raw materials to final assembly.

You're getting an attachment built to withstand real-world agricultural abuse, not engineered to meet a price point through overseas cost-cutting. The welds are clean and penetrating, the steel thickness is appropriate for the loads involved, and the overall build quality reflects pride in workmanship. When issues do arise, parts availability and customer support are handled domestically without dealing with international shipping delays or language barriers. Supporting American manufacturing also strengthens the domestic agricultural equipment industry that serves your operation's long-term needs.

What financing and shipping options does Forge Claw offer?
