Root Grapple | Mini Skid Steer Attachment | Hydraulic | Single Tine | 3/8" Steel | 2" x 10" Cylinder | Toro Dingo & Bobcat MT50 Mount Options | 36"–50"

When you're clearing brush, pulling stumps, or hauling debris on tight job sites, you need a grapple that grabs hard and won't let go. The Root Grapple Single Tine from Loflin Manufacturing is built for operators who work in tight spaces where every inch counts and every move needs to be precise. With its single-tine design and 34-inch opening width, this grapple delivers serious gripping power while letting dirt and debris fall through naturally, so you're moving what matters and leaving the rest behind.

This isn't just another attachment you bolt on and hope for the best. Loflin Manufacturing designed this root grapple from the ground up for mini skid steers, compact tractors, and machines like the Toro Dingo and Bobcat MT-SO mount systems. The single tine on top is built from 3/8-inch thick steel, powder coated for long-term durability in the dirt, mud, and weather that define your workday. The 2-inch by 10-inch cylinder delivers reliable hydraulic force, and every hinge point is fully greasable so you can keep this grapple working season after season without fighting wear and breakdown.

What makes this grapple stand out is how it handles real-world tasks. The single-tine design allows you to slide along the top of the ground without digging in or tearing up underground utilities, irrigation lines, or drainage systems. That's a huge advantage when you're working around established landscapes, near buildings, or on properties where damaging what's beneath the surface costs you time and money. You get control, precision, and the confidence to work fast without worrying about what you might hit.

Forge Claw proudly distributes this root grapple nationwide, and we back it with free shipping to your door. We work with contractors, landscapers, tree service pros, and landowners who need attachments that show up ready to work and don't quit when the job gets tough. This grapple comes equipped with Parker brand hoses, fittings, and couplers, so it's job-site ready the moment it arrives. No hunting for parts, no mismatched fittings, no wasted morning trying to get hydraulics to cooperate.

The grapple is available in 36-inch, 42-inch, and 48-inch widths for mini skid steers, and Loflin Manufacturing offers custom sizes and mounts if your machine or application needs something specific. Tine spacing ranges from 4-11/16 inches to 7-7/16 inches, with custom spacing available depending on what you're grabbing. Whether you're pulling roots, moving brush piles, handling logs, or clearing fence lines, this grapple adapts to the task without forcing you to work around its limitations.

The hydraulic cylinder is fully covered to protect it from impacts, debris, and the kind of abuse that comes with land clearing and demolition work. Hoses are fully protected and routed to keep them out of harm's way, which means fewer service calls and less downtime. The quick attach is reinforced to handle the stress of lifting, twisting, and pulling without bending or cracking under load. These aren't just features listed on a spec sheet—they're the difference between an attachment that lasts years and one that needs constant repairs.

Loflin Manufacturing calls this the original root grapple design, and it shows. The engineering is thoughtful, the construction is heavy-duty, and the performance is exactly what you need when the job requires more than just brute force. You're not fighting the attachment to get work done. You're using a tool that works with you, responds predictably, and handles the kind of punishment that breaks lesser equipment.

Forge Claw works with professionals who can't afford to buy twice. You need attachments that earn their keep from day one and keep earning it year after year. This root grapple delivers that kind of value. It's not the cheapest option out there, and it's not trying to be. It's built for operators who understand that reliability, durability, and performance cost less in the long run than replacing budget attachments that fail when you need them most.

Whether you're a contractor clearing lots for new construction, a landowner managing your property, or a tree service professional hauling brush and debris, this grapple gives you the control and capacity to work faster and smarter. The single-tine design is especially useful when you're working in areas where a multi-tine grapple would be overkill or too aggressive. You get the precision to pick up individual logs, roots, or limbs without dragging half the ground with you, and the strength to handle heavy loads without worrying about bending or breaking.

The powder-coated finish isn't just for looks. It protects the steel from rust and corrosion, which matters when your grapple sits outside between jobs or works in wet, muddy conditions. You're not spending your weekends grinding rust and repainting. You're spending them getting ready for the next job, knowing your equipment is holding up the way it should.

Ordering from Forge Claw means you're working with a distributor that understands the equipment and the work you do. We don't just ship boxes. We make sure you're getting the right attachment for your machine and your application, and we're here if you have questions before, during, or after your purchase. Free nationwide shipping means you're not eating freight costs that cut into your budget, and our flexible financing options make it easier to get the equipment you need without waiting.

When you buy American-made equipment, you're getting access to parts, service, and support that's faster and more reliable than dealing with overseas manufacturers. You're also getting a product that's designed and tested for the conditions, loads, and expectations of American job sites.

This root grapple saves you time on every job by letting you grab, lift, and move material in one smooth motion instead of making multiple passes or switching between attachments. The single-tine design gives you the precision to pick up individual pieces without scooping up extra dirt and debris, which means fewer trips to the dump and less time shaking loads to separate what you want from what you don't. When you're working by the hour or trying to finish before weather moves in, that efficiency adds up fast.

Durability translates directly into cost savings. The reinforced construction, protected hydraulics, and greasable hinge points mean you're spending less on repairs and replacement parts over the life of the grapple. The powder-coated finish resists rust and corrosion, so you're not dealing with structural degradation that forces you to replace the attachment prematurely. You're getting years of reliable service from a single investment, which lowers your cost per job and improves your return on investment.

The 34-inch opening width gives you the capacity to handle substantial loads without requiring a larger, heavier grapple that might exceed your machine's lifting capacity or hydraulic flow. You're maximizing what your equipment can do without pushing it beyond safe operating limits. That balance between capacity and compatibility means you can take on bigger jobs without upgrading your entire machine, which saves capital and keeps your operation running with the equipment you already own.

Job site versatility is another key advantage. The ability to slide along the ground without digging in makes this grapple ideal for working around existing structures, near property lines, or in areas where you can't risk damaging what's below the surface. You're not limited to wide-open spaces or jobs where tearing up the ground doesn't matter. You can work confidently in residential areas, around commercial buildings, and on properties where precision and care are just as important as speed.

Productivity improves when your equipment works the way you expect it to, every time. The Parker brand hydraulic components ensure consistent performance without leaks, pressure loss, or connection failures that slow you down. The reinforced quick attach lets you swap this grapple on and off quickly when you need to switch tasks, and the greasable hinge points keep the motion smooth and responsive so you're not fighting stiff or binding joints that waste energy and strain your machine's hydraulics.

The open design that allows dirt to fall through means you're not hauling unnecessary weight, which reduces fuel consumption and wear on your machine. You're moving only the material you need to move, which speeds up each cycle and reduces the strain on your equipment. Over the course of a long project, those small efficiencies compound into significant time and cost savings that improve your bottom line.

When you buy from Forge Claw, you're also getting the peace of mind that comes with nationwide support, free shipping, and access to flexible financing. You're not on your own after the sale. You're working with a distributor that stands behind the products we sell and the manufacturers we partner with, so if you need help or have questions, you're talking to people who understand the equipment and the work you do.

This root grapple is ideal for contractors doing land clearing, site prep, and demolition work where space is limited and precision matters. Landscapers will find it invaluable for moving brush, hauling logs, and clearing debris without damaging turf or irrigation systems. Tree service professionals can use it to handle cut limbs, stumps, and root balls efficiently, while landowners and property managers will appreciate its versatility for maintaining trails, clearing fence lines, and managing woodlots.

The grapple is designed to fit mini skid steers, compact tractors, and specific mounts like the Toro Dingo and Bobcat MT-SO systems, but Loflin Manufacturing offers custom sizing and mounting options if your machine requires something different. Before ordering, confirm your machine's hydraulic flow rate and lifting capacity to ensure compatibility. Most compact machines in this class will handle the grapple without issue, but checking specs up front prevents surprises and ensures safe operation.

Operating this grapple is straightforward. Connect the hydraulic couplers, test the open and close function before loading, and work within your machine's rated capacity. Keep hinge points greased according to the maintenance schedule, inspect hoses and fittings regularly for wear or damage, and store the grapple on level ground when not in use to prevent stress on the cylinder. These simple practices will extend the life of the attachment and keep it operating smoothly for years.

Maintenance is minimal but important. Grease the hinge points every 10 to 20 hours of operation, check hydraulic connections for leaks, and inspect the tine and welds for cracks or damage after heavy use. The powder-coated finish is durable, but if you scratch through to bare metal, touch it up with paint to prevent rust from taking hold. Proper care keeps this grapple working at full capacity and protects your investment over the long term.
