Northshore Manufacturing Adds New Grapple to Attachment Lineup

Northshore Manufacturing, Two Harbors, Minn., has added a new grapple, the Heavy Duty, Butt Tine Utility Grapple, to its line of attachments. In a press release, Northshore notes that the grapple is ideal for handling a wide variety of materials, including Jersey barriers, pipe, wood matting, railroad ties, logs, railroad rails, various tools, scrap automobiles and rock.

Features of the grapple include:

• 360-degree continuous rotation on a heavy duty bearing with an advanced, high torque motor and a high pressure hydraulic swivel. The hydraulic motor does not require a case drain line.
• High tensile steel used throughout.
• Arm tips made from hardened, abrasion-resistant material.
• Oversized, hardened cylinder and arm pivot pins with replaceable bushings.
• High pressure cylinders with holding valves.
• Easily accessible, yet well protected grease zerks.
• Can be outfitted with an optional sand bucket attachment that is easy to attach and detach for handling sand, gravel and other small, loose material.
• Made in the United States

The grapple can be mounted to both truck-mounted material handlers as well as excavators.
