What is a mechanical excavator grapple used for?

A mechanical excavator grapple grips and moves bulky, irregular material such as logs, rock, scrap metal, and demolition debris. It mounts to your excavator arm and uses the machine's bucket linkage to open and close its jaws, making it useful for land clearing, demolition cleanup, and sorting loose material.

Does a mechanical grapple need auxiliary hydraulics?

No, a mechanical grapple does not require auxiliary hydraulics. It actuates through the excavator's existing bucket linkage rather than a separate hydraulic circuit. That makes it a practical option for carriers without auxiliary lines and generally means fewer components to maintain compared with a hydraulic rotating grapple.

How do I know if this grapple fits my excavator?

Match the grapple to your excavator by carrier weight class and coupler type. Review the operating weight range and mounting details in the product spec table, then compare them to your machine. For fitment questions on a specific model, call Vovlift at +1 (307) 441-5529 before ordering.

How is the excavator grapple shipped?

The excavator grapple ships by insured LTL freight because of its size and weight. Freight handling protects the attachment in transit and is arranged for delivery to your location. Each listing also includes a manufacturer warranty as stated on the product page, so review those details before purchase.

How to Choose an Excavator Grapple Attachment

What is an excavator grapple attachment?

An excavator grapple is a jawed attachment that mounts to your excavator arm to grip, lift, and sort irregular material — logs, rock, demolition debris, and scrap. A mechanical grapple like the Geith model uses the machine's own motion to open and close the jaws, so it works without extra auxiliary hydraulic circuits.

Mechanical or hydraulic grapple — which do you need?

Choose a mechanical grapple when your excavator lacks auxiliary hydraulics or you want a simpler, lower-maintenance setup. Mechanical grapples such as the Geith Mechanical Excavator Grapple rely on the bucket linkage to actuate, making them a straightforward fit for bulk handling, land clearing, and demolition cleanup.

How do you match a grapple to your excavator?

Match the grapple to your machine by carrier weight class and coupler type before ordering. Confirm the operating weight range and mounting listed in the product spec table against your excavator, then call +1 (307) 441-5529 if you need help verifying fitment for your specific model.
