POWERHAND timber grapples
Perfect for continuous use on excavators and handling machines
POWERHAND grapples are mainly used in the areas of rail loading, port handling, the timber industry, ship loading and in sawmills. Wherever a particularly robust and hard application and ground pose special challenges to the attachments.
The design and manufacture of the very stable and high-quality grapples from POWERHAND are based on almost 100 years of experience. The history of the parent company Wm Clark & Son goes back to the year 1924.
The development and production of POWERHAND grapples take place in Dumfries, Scotland. All development and production stages are in the hands of POWERHAND. It is very important to the company to incorporate the experiences of the end users into the development of their grapples. POWERHAND is driven by the quest for constant product optimization – to improve the productivity of its customers.
With the GH POWERHAND grapples we can provide you with high-quality equipment for handling machines and excavators.
The GH grapples from POWERHAND impress with their large volume, low overall height, high weight, special width and high stability. The raw material for the POWERHAND grapples is high-quality Swedish steel. Engineering skills and almost a century of experience in development and production result in high-quality attachments for handling machines and excavators. Manufactured from high quality steel, with high material thickness at the claw cutting edges (inside 40 mm, outside 20 mm) and the tubes, as well as the double cylinder for even load and high holding-force, the GH grapples are very suitable for storage areas with hard ground, which are often found in railway loading, port handling and in sawmills. The GH grapples can also withstand a rough impact.
Furthermore, the POWERHAND GH grapples are durable and easy to maintain. For example, the bolts are easy to remove due to their removable thread in order to change the bushings. The cylinders and hoses are well protected.
All POWERHAND grapples of the GH series have a stable mount for the INDEXATOR Rotator XR300.
