CURTIS ARTILLIAN rock grapple

GRAPPLE RAKES

Modular design. Sectional components.

Customize your Artillian Pallet Fork Frames with any combination of Artillian grapples and rakes. Ideal balance between capacity and strength.

Fits Artillian JDQA, SSQA*, & MSSQA Frames

*Requires Skid Steer Loader meeting SAE J2513 standard.

Unlimited Uses – Designed for brush, roots, rocks, firewood processing, land grading, etc. This system can be used for work above or below grade

Quality Components – We use welded hydraulic cylinders for better durability and longer life over the low-budget tie rod cylinders used by others

Versatile – The rake sections can be used for widening the Grapple bed or by themselves as a ground scouring fire rake and all-purpose rock bucket. Clear away brush, grade the soil, and then scoop up the waste and haul it away

Quick Installation – Permanently attached fast-action hardware secures Grapple and Rake Sections to the Artillian pallet fork frame in seconds

Simple Connections – Grapple Sections include hydraulic hoses with 1/4″ male quick disconnect tips to plug right into our Diverter Kits

Low Maintenance – Our Grapple hinge bushings are made of a custom high-load and high-wear-life material similar to carbon fiber, which requires no lubrication or maintenance

Construction – CAD designed, CNC cut from high strength North American steel and MIG welded

Finish – Powder-coat black

COMBINATIONS

• Rake-Grapple-Rake (Single grapple)
• Grapple-Rake-Grapple (Dual grapple)
• Grapple-Grapple-Grapple (Triple grapple)
• DELUXE OPTION - bucket sides, fang teeth, debris guards

Powerful – Each Grapple Section can provide up to 1020 lbs. of clamping force at the tips. Using multiple grapples doubles or triples these capabilities.  On the high-force hinge setting, three grapples can apply over 3000 lbs. of crushing clamping force at the tips!

High Strength – Both Grapple and Rake Sections are made primarily of 3/8-inch thick ultra-high-strength and wear-resistant steel.

• Tines, Spine Plate, & Cylinder Mounts: 3/8” thick AR400 Abrasion Resistant Alloy Steel
• Tubes: ASTM A513 Steel
• Gussets: ¼” HRPO 1010 Steel

Lightweight – Through extensive engineering, a typical Rake-Grapple-Rake setup weighs about the same as your bucket but is far stronger than competitive products. These Grapples harness over 5000 lbs. of hydraulic cylinder force, but weigh just 90 lbs. Each Rake Section weighs just 40 lbs.

Using more than one Grapple requires a Hydraulic Splitter Manifold

These will only fit Artillian fork frames

Grapple Performance:

• Grapple closing/opening time: 0.5-1 seconds
• Clamping force at the tips:

Clamping force varies through the range of clamp rotation and also depends on your tractor’s hydraulic pressure.
