{"title":"Skid Steer Root Grapples | Forge Claw","description":"\u003cp\u003eSkid steer root grapples turn a tough clearing job into a one-machine operation. Stumps, root balls, boulders, tangled brush — the tines close around all of it, shake the dirt loose, and drop the debris in a pile. No hand labor. No second trip. Your skid steer already has the power. A root grapple just puts it to work where it counts. Available in widths from 60 inches to 84 inches, these attachments fit small-frame machines through large-frame loaders. Built heavy enough for daily abuse on land clearing and demolition sites, sized right for the work you actually do.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"universal-clam-grapple","title":"Skid Steer Root Rake Clamshell Grapple | For High Power Skid Steers | Extreme-Duty | 60\" Jaw Opening","description":"\u003ch2\u003eVideo Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"video\" style=\"display: block;\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UVycy5szUXc\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"video\" style=\"display: block;\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/47WHPJYRSro?si=7d17CD965RjHVcuZ\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOverview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen your work demands more than what standard equipment can deliver, you need a grapple built to match the power of your machine and the intensity of your workload. The CG-XD Clam Grapple from Stinger Attachments is engineered specifically for extreme-duty applications where lighter grapples simply won't cut it. Whether you're running a high-horsepower skid steer, a utility tractor, or a medium-duty wheel loader, this grapple is designed to handle the toughest commercial and heavy-use jobs without backing down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is proud to distribute the CG-XD Clam Grapple nationwide, bringing you a tool that doesn't just meet expectations—it exceeds them. This isn't your everyday attachment. It's a beast of a grapple that combines brute strength with intelligent design to give you maximum versatility and control on the job site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the CG-XD apart is its proven independent dual grapple design. Unlike single-jaw systems that struggle with uneven or awkwardly shaped loads, this grapple features two independently moving jaws that adapt to whatever you're picking up. The result is a solid, secure clamp on materials that would slip out of lesser grapples. You get better grip, better control, and better productivity—especially when you're dealing with irregular piles of brush, logs, demolition debris, or scrap materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe massive 60-inch opening is another game-changer. That kind of reach means you can tackle larger loads in fewer passes, cutting down on cycle times and keeping your projects moving forward. Whether you're clearing land, handling storm cleanup, sorting scrap at a recycling yard, or loading materials for transport, the wide opening lets you grab more with each clamp. If your machine can pick it up, this grapple can handle it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability is where the CG-XD truly shines. Stinger Attachments built this grapple using AR200 steel, a material known for its exceptional toughness and abrasion resistance. AR200 offers the strength you need to stand up to punishing work while keeping the overall weight manageable. That means you get a grapple that's incredibly durable without overtaxing your machine's hydraulic system or lifting capacity. It's the sweet spot between heavy-duty performance and practical efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in three sizes—86 inches, 96 inches, and 107 inches—the CG-XD Clam Grapple can be matched to your specific equipment and job requirements. Smaller operations benefit from the 86-inch model's maneuverability, while larger machines and high-volume jobs are perfectly suited to the 96-inch or 107-inch widths. No matter which size you choose, you're getting the same extreme-duty construction and independent jaw design that makes this grapple so effective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw understands that heavy equipment operators need attachments they can rely on day in and day out. That's why we partner with Stinger Attachments, a manufacturer known for building American-made products that deliver real-world performance. When you order the CG-XD Clam Grapple from Forge Claw, you're not just getting a piece of equipment—you're getting nationwide support, shipping calculated at checkout, and a commitment to quality that runs deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grapple is purpose-built for commercial contractors, land clearing professionals, tree service companies, demolition crews, and agricultural operators who push their equipment hard. If your work involves handling large volumes of material, dealing with challenging loads, or operating in demanding environments, the CG-XD is engineered with you in mind. It's the kind of attachment that pays for itself through increased efficiency, reduced downtime, and the ability to take on jobs that would otherwise require additional equipment or labor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe independent jaw design also means you're not limited to perfectly level ground or neatly stacked piles. Real-world job sites are messy, uneven, and unpredictable. The CG-XD adapts to those conditions, giving you the flexibility to clamp securely onto loads even when the material is scattered, irregular, or sitting on sloped terrain. That adaptability translates directly into time saved and frustration eliminated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw makes it easy to get the equipment you need without the usual headaches. We offer flexible financing options so you can get your CG-XD Clam Grapple on site and working for you without delay.

It's built to last, designed to perform, and backed by a manufacturer and distributor who stand behind every unit.

With its independent dual jaw design and 60-inch opening, you can grab more material per cycle and secure loads that would take multiple attempts with lesser grapples. That means fewer passes, less repositioning, and more material moved per hour. For contractors and operators billing by the job or working against tight deadlines, those time savings translate directly into increased profitability and the ability to take on more work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability is a major cost factor in heavy equipment operation, and the CG-XD delivers exceptional return on investment through its AR200 steel construction. This material resists wear, abrasion, and impact damage far better than standard steel, meaning your grapple maintains its structural integrity and performance even after months or years of hard use. Fewer repairs, less downtime, and longer service life all contribute to a lower total cost of ownership. When you're not constantly fixing or replacing equipment, you're saving money and staying productive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe independent jaw design offers a level of versatility that fixed or single-jaw grapples simply can't match. Whether you're handling logs of different sizes, piles of demolition debris, or mixed scrap materials, the CG-XD adapts to the load rather than forcing you to adapt your workflow. This flexibility means you can use one attachment for multiple tasks, reducing the need to switch between different grapples or tools throughout the day. That kind of efficiency keeps your operation moving smoothly and eliminates the hassle of constantly swapping attachments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor land clearing professionals and tree service companies, the CG-XD's wide opening and strong clamping force make it ideal for handling brush, limbs, and whole trees. You can grab large piles of branches in a single pass and move them to a chipper, trailer, or burn pile without losing material along the way. The secure grip means you're not constantly stopping to pick up dropped branches or reposition loads. That kind of operational efficiency is what separates profitable jobs from ones that eat up your time and resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CG-XD also excels in demolition and recycling applications where you're dealing with irregular, heavy, or awkwardly shaped materials. The independent jaws conform to the load, giving you a solid grip on everything from concrete chunks to twisted rebar to mixed demolition waste. You can sort, move, and load materials quickly and safely, keeping your site organized and your crew productive. In scrap yards and recycling centers, the ability to handle diverse materials with one attachment streamlines operations and reduces equipment costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProductivity improvements with the CG-XD aren't just about moving faster—they're about working smarter. The grapple's design reduces operator fatigue by making it easier to secure loads on the first attempt. Less time spent repositioning and re-grabbing materials means less wear on both the operator and the machine. When your crew can work efficiently without fighting their equipment, morale stays high and job quality improves. That's the kind of real-world benefit that doesn't always show up in spec sheets but makes a huge difference on the job site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, the CG-XD's combination of strength and manageable weight means you're getting maximum performance without pushing your machine to its limits. The AR200 steel construction provides the durability you need while keeping the grapple's weight in check, preserving your equipment's lifting capacity and hydraulic efficiency. You can work harder and longer without overtaxing your machine, extending its service life and reducing maintenance costs over time. That balance of power and practicality is what makes the CG-XD such a smart investment for serious operators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CG-XD Clam Grapple is ideal for contractors, land clearing professionals, demolition crews, tree service companies, scrap yard operators, and agricultural professionals who regularly handle large volumes of heavy or irregular materials. It's particularly well-suited to high-production environments where downtime is costly and equipment needs to perform reliably under constant use. If your operation involves moving brush, logs, demolition debris, scrap metal, or other bulky materials, this grapple is built to handle the workload.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is straightforward—the CG-XD is designed for high-horsepower skid steers, utility tractors, and medium-duty wheel loaders. Before ordering, confirm your machine's hydraulic flow rate, lifting capacity, and mounting system to ensure proper fitment. Forge Claw's team is available to help you select the right size and verify compatibility with your specific equipment. Proper matching of grapple size to machine capacity ensures optimal performance and safety on the job site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating the CG-XD effectively means taking advantage of its independent jaw design. Position the grapple over your load and allow the jaws to conform naturally to the material's shape as you close them. This approach gives you the most secure grip and reduces the risk of material slipping during transport. For best results, keep the grapple's pivot points and cylinders clean and lubricated according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Regular inspection of hoses, fittings, and structural components helps catch potential issues before they become costly problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance requirements are minimal but important. Daily visual inspections for leaks, damage, or loose hardware take just a few minutes and can prevent bigger issues down the road. Greasing pivot points and keeping hydraulic connections tight ensures smooth operation and long service life. The AR200 steel construction is highly resistant to wear, but periodic inspection of high-stress areas like jaw tips and mounting points helps you stay ahead of any potential wear. With basic care and attention, the CG-XD will deliver years of reliable performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by Stinger Attachments, this product is covered under the manufacturer's 2-year warranty for defects in materials and workmanship.

Forge Claw is proud to distribute this rugged attachment nationwide, designed specifically for operators who need to move logs, rocks, brush, bales, and everything in between without constantly switching tools or making multiple trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis isn't just another grapple with a couple of arms. The CG Clam Grapple features two independently controlled jaws that open horizontally up to 46 inches, giving you the clearance to grab large round bales, hefty logs, and irregular rock formations with confidence. Each jaw operates on its own, so you can fine-tune your grip and adjust on the fly without repositioning your machine or losing your load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from AR200 abrasion-resistant steel, this grapple holds up under the kind of punishment that breaks down lesser equipment. The enclosed back design transforms it from a simple grapple into a true workhorse that can scoop loose materials like gravel, manure, or mulch just as easily as it grips timber or stone. That closed back gives you a solid base to work with, so fine materials don't slip through while you're moving across the jobsite or property.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame is reinforced with 2-1\/2-inch structural tube supports, and the grapple pivots on a 1-inch greaseable shaft that's built to handle thousands of cycles without play or slop. Two welded hydraulic cylinders rated at 2-by-8-inches and 3,000 PSI provide the clamping force you need to hold onto awkward loads and keep them secure during transport. This is the kind of build quality that keeps equipment running year after year, not just season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStinger Attachments designed the CG Clam Grapple with real-world compatibility in mind. It's available with a Universal Quick-Attach carrier that works with most skid steers, as well as a John Deere 100-500 series carrier for operators running Big Green iron. The bolt-on mount design adds another layer of flexibility, letting you swap carriers if your fleet changes or if you want to share the attachment across multiple machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou also get multiple hydraulic coupler options right out of the gate. Whether you're running flat-face couplers, quick couplers, or another common setup, this grapple adapts to your machine without requiring custom hoses or adapter kits. That means less downtime during installation and fewer headaches when you need to move the attachment between machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapple comes in three widths to match your machine size and application. The 66-inch model weighs approximately 855 pounds, the 75-inch version comes in around 915 pounds, and the 84-inch grapple tips the scales at about 1,025 pounds. All three sizes share the same 46-inch jaw opening and rugged construction, so you're getting the same grip strength and durability no matter which width you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith 10 tines on the top jaw and 9 on the bottom, spaced 9 inches apart, you get excellent penetration into brush piles and debris while still maintaining enough surface area to hold solid objects securely. The tines are welded to the same AR200 steel framework, so they resist bending and breaking even when you're prying rocks out of hard ground or pulling apart compacted piles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grapple is rated for skid steers and utility tractors in the 50 to 100 horsepower range, making it a perfect match for mid-sized machines that handle the bulk of property maintenance, land clearing, and construction support work. If you're running a machine in that power class and you're tired of wrestling with materials that don't fit neatly into a bucket, the CG Clam Grapple changes how you work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw ships this attachment free anywhere in the country, so you're not stuck paying extra freight charges that eat into your budget.

Jobs that used to take all afternoon get done before lunch, freeing up your machine and your crew for other tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability translates directly into cost savings. The AR200 steel construction resists the kind of wear that forces other grapples into early retirement, and the greaseable pivot shaft keeps the moving parts in good shape with minimal maintenance. You're not replacing bent tines or worn-out cylinders every season, and that means more money stays in your pocket instead of going toward repairs or replacement parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe enclosed back design gives you versatility that pays off across a wider range of jobs. You can use the same grapple to move a pile of gravel in the morning and stack firewood in the afternoon without swapping attachments. That flexibility reduces the need for multiple specialized tools and keeps your operation lean and efficient. One attachment does the work of two or three, and your machine spends more time working and less time sitting in the yard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProductivity improves when you have the right tool for the job. The independent jaw control lets you adjust your grip on the fly, so you're not constantly repositioning or losing your load halfway across the site. The 46-inch jaw opening handles materials that other grapples can't touch, and the powerful hydraulic cylinders keep everything locked in place even over rough terrain. You move more material per hour, and the job gets done with fewer hassles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CG Clam Grapple is built for operators who need equipment that works as hard as they do. It handles the ugly jobs—pulling stumps, moving manure, clearing storm debris—without complaint, and it keeps working long after lighter-duty attachments have called it quits. That reliability means you can take on more work, tackle tougher projects, and build a reputation for getting things done no matter what the job throws at you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast nationwide shipping from Forge Claw removes one more obstacle between you and better productivity. You're not hunting for local dealers or paying inflated freight charges just to get the equipment you need. Order it, receive it, mount it, and put it to work. That's how equipment buying should be, and that's what Forge Claw delivers every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Skid Steer CG Clam Grapple is ideal for contractors handling site cleanup and material transport, landscapers managing organic debris and hardscaping materials, tree service professionals moving logs and brush, and ranch or farm owners dealing with hay, manure, and general property maintenance. It's equally at home on construction sites, rural properties, and municipal maintenance yards. If your work involves moving materials that don't fit neatly into a bucket, this grapple belongs on your machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is straightforward. The Universal Quick-Attach carrier fits most modern skid steers without modification, and the John Deere-specific carrier integrates seamlessly with 100-500 series loaders. The bolt-on mount design means you can swap carriers in the field if needed, giving you flexibility as your equipment lineup changes. Hydraulic flow requirements are modest, so the grapple works efficiently with mid-sized machines in the 50 to 100 HP range without taxing your hydraulic system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating the CG Clam Grapple effectively comes down to using the independent jaw control to your advantage. When grabbing uneven loads like rock piles or brush, open one jaw wider than the other to match the material's shape. For loose materials, use the enclosed back as a scoop and close the jaws to secure the load. Keep the pivot shaft greased according to the manufacturer's recommendations, and inspect the tines periodically for damage or excessive wear. A quick visual check before each use catches potential problems before they become costly repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is minimal but important. Grease the pivot shaft regularly to keep it moving smoothly and prevent premature wear. Check hydraulic hoses and fittings for leaks or damage, especially if you're working in rough conditions. Keep the tines free of debris buildup, and touch up any paint chips or scratches to prevent rust from taking hold. Treated right, this grapple will outlast your machine and move on to the next one without missing a beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by Stinger Attachments, this product is covered under the manufacturer's 2-year warranty for defects in materials and workmanship.

The Skid Steer Root \u0026amp; Rock Grapple from Stinger Attachments delivers exactly that. Designed to bridge the gap between heavy-duty rock grapples and wide-opening root grapples, this attachment brings together the best of both worlds in a lighter, more versatile package that's perfect for residential jobs, hobby farms, and lighter commercial work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this grapple apart is its smart design. With a 6-inch opening between the tines, it's narrower than traditional root grapples, which means less weight on your machine without sacrificing strength or capability. That makes it ideal for operators running smaller skid steers or compact tractors who still need serious grabbing power. The half-inch serrated cutting edge borrowed from Stinger's rock grapple line adds aggression and bite, letting you dig into piles, break apart tangled brush, and grip irregular loads with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual independent grapples open a full 48 inches, giving you plenty of room to wrap around stumps, logs, root balls, and piles of storm debris. Each grapple operates on its own 2500 psi cylinder, so you get independent control and a secure grip every time. Whether you're loading a trailer, stacking firewood, or clearing fence lines, that wide opening and strong clamping force mean fewer trips and faster work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from Grade 50 steel throughout, this grapple is designed to handle years of hard use. The bucket itself uses 3\/8-inch Grade 50 material for the tines, reinforced with double pipe supports running between each tine for added rigidity and impact resistance. The top is framed with 4x4-inch tubing and the bottom with 3x3-inch tubing, both quarter-inch thick, creating a solid structure that won't flex or bend under load. The half-inch serrated cutting edge is welded across the front, giving you a clean, aggressive bite whether you're scraping, digging, or cutting into compacted material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is proud to distribute Stinger Attachments because they build equipment the right way. Every weld, every tube, every cylinder is chosen with the end user in mind. This isn't an attachment that'll give out after a season or two. It's built to last, and it's built right here in the USA with materials and craftsmanship you can count on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest advantages of the RRG Series is its versatility. It's light enough for compact machines but strong enough for serious work. If you're a landowner managing a few acres, a landscaper tackling brush removal jobs, or a contractor cleaning up job sites, this grapple handles it all. You can scoop gravel, grab logs, move rocks, clear storm debris, and load mulch without switching attachments. That kind of flexibility saves time and makes your machine more valuable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapple comes standard with hydraulic hoses and half-inch flat-face couplers, so you're ready to hook up and go as soon as it arrives. Forge Claw ships this attachment fast nationwide, and it arrives ready to work. The universal skid steer mount plate fits most machines on the market, and if you're running something unique, Stinger offers custom mounting options. Just give us a call and we'll make sure it fits your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in four widths—60, 66, 72, and 78 inches—you can match the grapple to your machine size and the type of work you do most. The 60-inch model weighs in at 726 pounds, while the 78-inch tops out at 820 pounds. That range gives you options whether you're running a small frame skid steer or a full-size loader. All four sizes share the same rugged construction, proven grapple design, and serrated cutting edge, so you're getting the same quality and performance no matter which width you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreaseable pivot points keep the grapples moving smoothly and extend the life of your cylinders and pins. A little maintenance goes a long way, and Stinger makes it easy to keep this attachment running like new for years. The thoughtful engineering shows in the details—reinforced stress points, quality welds, and a design that's built to be serviced in the field, not thrown away when something wears out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've been using a standard bucket to move brush or debris, you already know how much time you waste chasing loose material and making multiple trips. A grapple changes that. You grab the load, clamp it tight, and move it where it needs to go. No spillage, no chasing, no frustration. The RRG gives you that control in a package that won't overload smaller machines or break the bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw has built a reputation on honest service, quality products, and standing behind what we sell. When you order from us, you're not just getting an attachment. You're getting a partner who understands the work you do and the equipment you depend on.

This isn't the cheapest grapple on the market, and it's not trying to be. It's built for operators who want an attachment that works hard, lasts long, and makes every job easier. When you factor in the shipping calculated at checkout, the two-year manufacturer's warranty, and the proven durability of Stinger's construction, the value becomes clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're clearing land for a new project, cleaning up after a storm, managing pasture and fence lines, or just keeping your property tidy, the Skid Steer Root \u0026amp; Rock Grapple gives you the grabbing power and durability to handle it all. It's the kind of attachment that becomes your go-to for dozens of jobs you didn't even think about when you bought it.

Instead of making multiple trips with a standard bucket, chasing loose material and re-stacking loads, you grab everything in one pass and move it where it needs to go. That means fewer hours spent on cleanup, land clearing, and debris removal, and more time moving on to the next job or project. For contractors billing by the hour or landowners managing their own property, that efficiency adds up fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lighter weight of this grapple compared to full-size root grapples means you can run it on smaller machines without overloading your skid steer or compact tractor. That opens up capability you might not have had before, letting you tackle jobs that used to require renting a larger machine or calling in help. The return on investment comes quickly when one attachment can handle brush removal, log moving, gravel work, and general cleanup without switching tools or machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability is where this grapple really shines. Grade 50 steel throughout, double pipe reinforcement, and a serrated cutting edge built to last mean you're not replacing bent tines, cracked welds, or worn-out cylinders after a few months of use. Stinger Attachments builds this grapple to handle years of hard work, and that long-term reliability means lower total cost of ownership. You buy it once, maintain it properly, and it keeps working season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProductivity improvements show up in ways you might not expect. When you can grab a pile of brush, lift it high, and shake out the dirt before loading it, you're not hauling unnecessary weight or making a mess. When you can clamp down on a log and carry it across uneven ground without it rolling off, you're working safer and faster. The independent grapples let you adjust your grip on irregular loads, giving you control that a fixed bucket or fork simply can't match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor operators who do a variety of work, the versatility of the RRG Series means one attachment covers dozens of tasks. You're not buying a specialized tool that only does one thing. You're adding a true multi-purpose attachment that earns its keep every time you hook it up. Whether you're clearing fence lines, loading firewood, moving rocks, cleaning up storm damage, or prepping a site for construction, this grapple handles it all with the same confidence and capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real-world value becomes obvious the first time you use it. Jobs that used to take all day get done by lunch. Tasks that required extra help become one-person operations. Equipment that used to sit idle because it couldn't handle certain jobs suddenly becomes your most-used attachment. That's the kind of value that goes beyond the price tag and shows up in your bottom line, your schedule, and your ability to take on more work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grapple is ideal for landowners managing residential acreage, hobby farmers maintaining pastures and woodlots, landscaping professionals handling brush removal and site cleanup, and contractors working on smaller-scale land clearing and demolition projects. It's particularly well-suited for operators running compact equipment who need serious capability without the weight and cost of full-size attachments. Tree service professionals, municipalities managing parks and trails, and rental yards looking for versatile, durable equipment will all find value in the RRG Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe universal skid steer mount plate ensures compatibility with most machines on the market, and the hydraulic system works with standard auxiliary hydraulic circuits. If you're running a compact tractor with a loader, Stinger offers custom mounting options to fit your setup. The included hydraulic hoses and flat-face couplers mean you can hook up and start working as soon as the grapple arrives. Just connect your hydraulics, check your flow, and you're ready to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating this grapple is straightforward, but a few best practices will keep it running smoothly and extend its life. Always grease the pivot points regularly, especially if you're working in dusty or dirty conditions. When grabbing irregular loads, use the independent grapples to your advantage—clamp one side first, adjust your position, then close the second grapple for a secure grip. Avoid dragging the grapple with the arms closed, as this puts unnecessary stress on the cylinders and pivot points. Let the bucket and cutting edge do the work when scraping or digging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is simple and straightforward. Keep the pivot points greased, check hydraulic hoses for wear or damage, and inspect welds and structural components periodically for cracks or stress. The serrated cutting edge will wear over time with heavy use, but the half-inch thickness gives you plenty of material to work with before replacement is needed. Store the grapple under cover when possible to protect the hydraulic cylinders from the elements, and bleed the hydraulic lines if the attachment will sit unused for extended periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by Stinger Attachments, this product is covered under the manufacturer's 2-year warranty for defects in materials and workmanship.

You need something that can grab, lift, and shake — something that holds onto awkward loads while letting the dirt and small debris fall away. That's exactly what the Skid Steer Root Grapple from Stinger Attachments delivers, and Forge Claw is proud to distribute this workhorse attachment to contractors, landscapers, tree service professionals, and land managers across the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis root grapple isn't just another attachment. It's built to tackle the toughest jobs where you're dealing with roots, rocks, stumps, logs, brush piles, construction debris, and everything in between. The open-bottom design is what sets it apart from a traditional grapple bucket — material gets scooped up and held securely by the twin independent grapples, but dirt, gravel, and small debris shake right through. That means less weight per load, cleaner material handling, and more efficient trips back and forth across the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat really makes this grapple stand out is the aggressive front tine design. These aren't just for show. The tines dig into piles of debris, root balls, and tangled brush, acting like a wedge that forces the bucket deeper into the mess so you can grab more material in one scoop. When you're clearing land, those tines pull roots and small stumps right out of the ground. On demolition sites, they break apart piles and let you grab big chunks of concrete, timber, and metal without losing your grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStinger Attachments engineered this root grapple with two heavy-duty independent grapples, each powered by its own 2500 psi cylinder. That gives you a massive 45 to 48-inch opening — plenty of room to handle full-size trees, large root balls, pallets of block, and oversized debris. The dual-cylinder setup means you get serious clamping force on both sides, so even awkward or unbalanced loads stay put while you're moving across rough terrain or lifting high to load a truck or trailer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's a feature you don't see on many grapples: the grapple arms are completely removable in less than 10 minutes. No special tools, no complicated process. That means if you need to use the attachment as a standard open-bottom bucket for a particular task, you can pull the grapples off quickly and reinstall them just as fast when you need them again. It's a simple design choice that adds serious versatility to your operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw offers this root grapple in three sizes: 66 inches, 75 inches, and 85 inches. The 66-inch model weighs in at 746 pounds, the 75-inch at 795 pounds, and the 85-inch at 843 pounds. All three sizes are built with the same grade 50 steel construction, the same tine depth, and the same heavy-duty grapple system. Your choice comes down to the width of your skid steer and the types of jobs you're running. Smaller machines pair well with the 66-inch model, while larger skid steers and high-flow machines can take full advantage of the 75 or 85-inch widths for maximum productivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery root grapple is manufactured in the USA by Stinger Attachments using grade 50 structural steel. This isn't mild steel or mystery metal — it's high-strength material that engineers rely on for bridges, heavy equipment frames, and structural applications where failure isn't an option. The bucket frame is reinforced with 4x4x1\/4-inch top tubing and a 2.875-inch front support pipe that runs the width of the attachment. These aren't cosmetic touches. They're load-bearing reinforcements that keep the frame square and strong even when you're prying out a stump or lifting a full load of logs overhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tines themselves are cut from 3\/8-inch grade 50 steel plate and welded to the bucket with a one-piece gusset design that you can see in the product photos. That gusset ties each tine directly into the main frame, spreading the load across a larger area and preventing stress cracks at the weld points. The tines are spaced 9 inches apart on center, which is wide enough to let debris fall through but tight enough to grab smaller material like branches and chunks of concrete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach tine measures 4.5 inches deep, giving you serious digging and prying power. When you drive into a pile of brush or root ball, those tines don't just skim the surface — they dig in and hold. The depth also adds rigidity to the bucket, so the frame doesn't flex or twist under side loads or when you're pulling laterally on a stubborn root.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapples themselves are built with greaseable pivot points, which is exactly what you want on a piece of equipment that's going to see dirt, mud, water, and constant use. A quick hit with the grease gun every few weeks keeps the pivot pins moving smoothly and extends the life of the cylinders and mounting hardware. The twin 2500 psi cylinders provide fast cycle times and serious clamping force, so you can grab a load and get moving without waiting around for slow hydraulics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis root grapple comes ready to hook up and run. Stinger Attachments includes 1\/2-inch flat-face hydraulic couplers with every unit, so you can connect to your skid steer's auxiliary hydraulics without hunting down adapters or making a trip to the hydraulic shop. The universal skid steer mounting plate fits all major brands including Kubota, Bobcat, John Deere, Case, New Holland, Gehl, Mustang, ASV, Takeuchi, and more. If you're running a different mounting system or need a custom setup, give Forge Claw a call — we can help you sort out the right configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal-world performance is what matters, and this attachment delivers. Tree service crews use it to handle logs, stumps, and brush piles without switching between a bucket and a grapple. Land clearing operations rely on it to pull roots and rocks while keeping dirt on the ground where it belongs. Demolition contractors load trucks faster because the grapples hold awkward debris securely, even when they're driving over rough ground or up a ramp. Farm and ranch owners find it indispensable for cleaning fence lines, moving rock piles, and handling hay bales or pallets of feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is a top-rated nationwide distributor for heavy machinery attachments, and we've built our reputation on reliability, quality products, and straightforward service.

The open-bottom design means you're not wasting time shaking dirt out of a closed bucket or making extra trips because half your load is soil instead of the material you actually want to move. You grab what you need, the dirt falls through, and you keep moving. Over the course of a day or a week, that efficiency adds up to fewer passes, less fuel burned, and more material moved per hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual-grapple system gives you control and security that a standard bucket can't match. When you're loading a truck or stacking material, you don't have to worry about a log rolling off or a pile shifting mid-lift. The grapples clamp down and hold, even when you're driving over rough ground or making tight turns. That means fewer dropped loads, less rework, and safer operation around other workers or equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability is where this attachment really proves its value. Grade 50 steel construction and heavy reinforcement mean this grapple is built to last season after season, job after job. You're not replacing bent tines or cracked frames after a few months of hard use. The one-piece gussets and structural tubing are designed to handle the shock loads and side forces that come with prying stumps, breaking apart root balls, and handling demolition debris. That's less downtime, fewer repair bills, and a longer working life before you need to think about replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProductivity goes up because you can do more with one attachment. Instead of switching between a bucket for digging, a grapple for grabbing, and forks for handling pallets, you've got a single tool that covers multiple tasks. The front tines dig and pry, the open frame handles bulk material, and the grapples secure awkward loads. That's fewer attachment changes, less wasted time, and more flexibility to tackle whatever the job throws at you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReturn on investment comes quickly when you're running this grapple on commercial jobs. Faster cycle times mean you can finish land clearing projects ahead of schedule and move on to the next job. Cleaner loads mean less time sorting material at the dump or burn pile. The ability to handle demolition debris, tree work, and site prep with the same attachment means you're not tying up capital in multiple specialized tools. For contractors running tight margins, that efficiency and versatility translates directly to profit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe removable grapple feature adds unexpected value. There are times when you need the open frame of the bucket without the grapples in the way — maybe you're spreading gravel, loading loose soil, or working in tight spaces where the grapple arms would catch on overhead branches. Being able to pull the grapples off in 10 minutes and reinstall them just as fast means this attachment adapts to your work instead of forcing you to work around its limitations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor owner-operators and small crews, this root grapple is a force multiplier. One operator can move material that would otherwise require two people with hand tools or a second machine. You can grab a full tree, pull it to a staging area, and pile it for chipping or hauling without climbing off the machine. That's fewer labor hours, less physical strain, and more work done with the equipment you already own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis root grapple is ideal for contractors, tree service professionals, landscapers, land clearing operations, demolition crews, farm and ranch owners, and property managers who deal with brush piles, storm cleanup, site prep, or regular material handling. It's equally at home on residential lots, commercial job sites, rural properties, and municipal projects. If your work involves moving logs, stumps, rocks, brush, pallets, or demolition debris, this attachment will earn its place on your machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe universal skid steer mounting plate fits all standard quick-attach systems used by major skid steer manufacturers. If you're running a machine with high-flow hydraulics, you'll see faster cycle times and more responsive grapple action. Standard-flow machines work perfectly well — you'll just have slightly slower cylinder movement. If you're unsure about compatibility or hydraulic requirements for your specific machine, Forge Claw can walk you through the details and make sure you're set up correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating this grapple is straightforward, but a few best practices will help you get the most out of it. Use the tines to break into piles and pull material toward the bucket before closing the grapples. When pulling stumps or roots, curl the bucket back slightly as you lift to keep tension on the load and prevent the front of the machine from lifting. Keep the pivot points greased, and take a minute every few weeks to check the cylinder rods for damage and inspect the welds for cracks. Catching small issues early keeps the attachment working hard for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is minimal but important. Grease the pivot points regularly, especially if you're working in muddy or dusty conditions. Check hydraulic hoses and fittings for leaks or wear, and keep the mounting plate hardware tight. At the end of the season or after a big project, hose off the attachment and touch up any paint chips to prevent rust. Store it off the ground if possible, and keep the cylinders retracted to protect the rods from the elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by Stinger Attachments, this product is covered under the manufacturer's 2-year warranty for defects in materials and workmanship.

When you're clearing brush, removing storm debris, or piling up pruned branches and overgrown shrubbery, you need a grapple attachment that grabs hold and doesn't let go. The Root Rake Grapple from Eip Manufacturing is built specifically for professionals who need a reliable, no-nonsense solution for fast cleanup and efficient material handling on the job site. Whether you're a contractor managing land clearing projects, a landscaper tackling seasonal cleanups, or a property owner maintaining acreage, this grapple keeps materials under control from pickup to pile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this grapple apart is its thoughtful design. Serrated teeth on both the top and bottom jaw create a serious grip that holds everything from tangled brush piles to loose debris without constant repositioning. That dual-tooth design means you're not chasing materials around the job site or dealing with branches slipping out mid-transport. You grab it once, move it where it needs to go, and drop it in a neat pile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 40-inch maximum opening gives you the capacity to handle larger loads without making multiple trips. That kind of opening range means you can scoop up bulky piles of brush, grab awkward root balls, or clamp down on storm-damaged limbs in a single pass. When you're working against the clock or trying to finish before weather rolls in, that efficiency adds up fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with 3\/8-inch tines and 3\/8-inch side plates, this grapple is constructed to handle the punishment that comes with real-world land clearing and debris management. These aren't lightweight components that bend or buckle under pressure. The tines are sized to penetrate material piles and hold tight, while the side plates provide structural support that keeps the entire unit rigid during lifting and transport. Eip Manufacturing didn't cut corners on the build—this is a grapple designed to work season after season without backing down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hydraulic cylinders are another standout feature. With 2-inch by 8-inch cylinders driving the clamping force, you get strong, consistent grip power every time you close the jaws. That kind of hydraulic strength means you're not babying the attachment or worrying about whether it'll hold when you're moving a heavy load across uneven terrain. It clamps down hard and stays that way until you're ready to release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is proud to offer the Root Rake Grapple with fast nationwide shipping, so you can get this attachment delivered to your door without hidden freight costs eating into your budget.

Tree service professionals use it to pile limbs and branches after pruning or removal jobs. Landscapers rely on it to clear overgrown lots and prepare sites for new plantings or hardscaping. Contractors working on land development projects use it to gather and move brush, saplings, and root masses quickly. Farm and ranch owners turn to it for pasture maintenance, fence line clearing, and cleanup after storms or seasonal brush cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest advantages of the Root Rake Grapple is how it improves your workflow. Instead of raking materials into piles by hand or using a bucket to scoop and chase loose debris, you grab everything in one motion and move it exactly where you want it. That means less back-and-forth across the property, less time spent repositioning loads, and less wear and tear on your machine from unnecessary maneuvering. You work smarter, not harder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact 32-inch height and 16 1\/4-inch depth make this grapple easy to maneuver in tighter spaces without sacrificing capacity. You can navigate between trees, work along fence lines, or operate in areas where a larger, bulkier attachment would struggle. That kind of versatility matters when you're dealing with real-world job sites that don't always offer wide-open working conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability isn't just about thick steel and heavy welds.

The Root Rake Grapple is designed to handle mud, rocks, wet brush, frozen debris, and everything else that comes with outdoor work. The serrated teeth don't dull easily, the cylinders are built to resist wear, and the overall construction is meant to keep working without constant repairs or adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor operators who value control and precision, this grapple delivers.

You rake it up, then you pile it, then you haul it off — and sometimes you're back-dragging dirt just to smooth things out. That's three separate passes with three different attachments. The Medium Duty Root Grapple from Loflin Manufacturing changes that. This skid steer attachment handles all three jobs in a single pass, and it does it without tearing up your topsoil or snagging underground lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForge Claw is proud to distribute this versatile tool to contractors, landscapers, farm owners, and tree service professionals nationwide. It's built for operators running smaller skid steers — machines around 50 horsepower and under — who need serious capability without the bulk. Whether you're clearing brush after a storm, sorting demolition debris, or cleaning up a logging site, this root grapple keeps material under control while letting dirt fall through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design is straightforward and effective. Independent hydraulic cylinders let each grapple tine adjust on its own, so uneven loads don't throw you off balance. The tines themselves are curved upward, which means they slide across the ground instead of digging in. That's critical when you're working around utilities, irrigation, or freshly graded surfaces. You get the grabbing power you need without the collateral damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLoflin Manufacturing engineered this grapple with enclosed cylinders and fully protected hoses. That's not just a convenience — it's a maintenance saver. Exposed hydraulics get snagged, punctured, and worn down fast on rough job sites. With everything tucked inside, you're spending less time on repairs and more time getting work done. The hoses, fittings, and couplers are all Parker brand components, so you're starting with quality parts that hold up under real-world pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe round bottom bar serves double duty as a backfill tool.

You're saving time, reducing equipment wear, and keeping your workflow smooth from start to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the biggest advantages here is capacity. The larger opening width — over 34 inches — means you're grabbing more material per scoop. That translates directly into fewer trips back and forth across the site. Whether you're loading a truck, stacking brush piles, or separating rock from lumber, you're moving faster and burning less fuel. For contractors working on tight schedules or landowners tackling big cleanup projects, that efficiency adds up fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis grapple is available in 60-inch, 66-inch, and 72-inch widths, and Loflin Manufacturing also offers custom sizing if your operation calls for it. The tine spacing runs between 8.5 and 9 inches depending on the width you choose, which gives you a good balance between grabbing power and dirt separation. The 3\/8-inch thick steel tines are built to handle repeated impacts without bending or cracking, and every hinge point is fully greasable so you can keep things moving smoothly over the long haul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForge Claw has seen this attachment become a go-to for all kinds of work. Tree service crews use it to load logs and haul brush without switching between a grapple and a rake. Demolition contractors appreciate how well it separates rebar and concrete chunks from dirt and filler. Landscapers rely on it for site prep, especially when they need to clear rocks and roots without disturbing the topsoil underneath. Ranch owners and farm operators find it indispensable for pasture maintenance, fence line clearing, and general property cleanup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reinforced quick attach plate ensures a solid connection to your skid steer, and the greasable pins on the top tines make maintenance straightforward. There's also a treaded step built into the frame, which is a small detail that makes a real difference when you're hooking up or inspecting the grapple in the field.

Instead of making multiple passes with different attachments, you're raking, piling, and backfilling in one smooth operation. That cuts job times dramatically, especially on larger properties or multi-day projects. Contractors working on fixed bids can finish faster and move on to the next job, while landowners tackling cleanup on their own schedule get more done in a weekend than they would in a week with conventional tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabor cost reduction follows naturally from that efficiency. When one operator with one machine can do the work of two or three separate setups, you're saving on fuel, equipment wear, and man-hours. For tree service companies and excavation contractors, that's a direct boost to the bottom line. You're also reducing the physical strain on your crew, which means fewer injuries and less downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDurability is built into every part of this grapple. The 3\/8-inch steel tines stand up to repeated impacts from rocks, logs, and concrete debris. The enclosed hydraulic cylinders resist damage in the kind of rough conditions that would destroy exposed hoses and fittings. Loflin Manufacturing uses Parker hydraulic components because they're proven in demanding environments, and every greasable point is designed to be serviced quickly so the attachment stays in top working condition year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProductivity improvements show up in the details.

The open tine design speeds up material separation, so you're not wasting time shaking dirt out of a solid bucket or manually sorting debris piles. When you're working on a timeline — whether it's a commercial contract or storm cleanup — those small gains add up to major differences in output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReal-world job site value comes from versatility. This isn't a single-purpose tool. You're using it for land clearing, demolition cleanup, fence line maintenance, site prep, stump removal, brush piling, rock sorting, and backfilling. That means one attachment is earning its keep across multiple types of work, which improves your return on investment and reduces the need to stock a large inventory of specialized tools. For smaller operations and independent contractors, that flexibility is especially valuable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lighter design optimized for compact skid steers also delivers a hidden benefit: better machine longevity. When you're not overloading your hydraulic system or fighting an attachment that's too heavy for your loader, you're reducing wear on pumps, cylinders, and drivetrain components. That means lower maintenance costs on your skid steer and fewer unexpected breakdowns in the middle of a job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Medium Duty Root Grapple is ideal for contractors and operators running compact skid steers in the 50-horsepower range or below.

Grease all hinge points and pins regularly, especially if you're working in dusty or muddy conditions. Check hydraulic hoses and fittings before each use to catch any wear or damage early. When moving heavy loads, take advantage of the independent cylinders to balance uneven material and avoid putting side stress on the frame. The upward-curved tines are designed to glide over the ground, but you'll get the best results by keeping your approach angle shallow and letting the grapple do the work rather than forcing it into the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaintenance requirements are minimal thanks to the enclosed design and quality components.
