Blue Diamond Attachments has added a new attachment to its growing lineup of grapple and grapple buckets: the HDX rock grapple bucket.
Engineered for skid steers and compact track loaders up to 75 hp or 3,000-lb. lift capacity, the HDX rock grapple bucket joins the Blue Diamond series that includes the HDX root grapple and grapple bucket — attachments designed to grab bulky items in a single load, improving productivity in landscaping and cleanup projects.
At 72 in. wide and 39 in. deep, the HDX rock grapple bucket offers a maximum opening of 32 in., and has dual top clamps constructed of 1/2-in. steel to effectively clear debris and to securely carry rocks, brush or logs. It also can be used as a land plane and for lighter clearing.
The Blue Diamond HDX rock grapple offers key features designed for enhanced durability and performance.
• 3-in. tine spacing with reinforced gussets provide efficiency when sorting finer materials from larger ones.
• Fully welded hydraulic cylinders improve clamping force and increase durability for greater uptime.
• Greasable pivot points reduce wear to extend the attachment life and simplify maintenance.
• Upgraded cylinder and hose protection minimize the opportunity for damage to hydraulics, reducing downtime for repairs.
"For our customers who need a grapple attachment for their mid-duty machines, the HDX rock grapple bucket is the perfect fit, positioned to bridge the gap between our heavy-duty and severe duty models," said Drew Truan, chief operating officer of Blue Diamond Attachments. "Like all our attachments, this new model can be depended on for its ruggedness and reliability for tough jobs."
The Blue Diamond HDX rock bucket grapple comes with the Blue Diamond satisfaction guarantee and is backed by a 1-year warranty. For more information, visit bluediamondattachments.com.
