Grapples

HKM grapples, excavator and log grapples, safely grip debris, rock, pipe and timber. Precise hold for recycling, demolition and forestry work.

Grapples

HKM grapples turn your excavator into a precision-focused, high-efficiency material-handling solution. With models from EG05 to EG35 fitting 5-35 t carriers, they deliver superior control, strong gripping and structural durability in demanding demolition, recycling and sorting applications.

Wide jaw openings, high-torque rotation systems and a reinforced steel body excel in both precise sorting and heavy demolition, reducing repositioning, extending maintenance cycles and lowering total operation time.

Will it fit your machine?

This tool performs a pre-selection based on catalogue values and is not a binding quotation. Attachments without a hydraulic supply, such as rippers, have no flow or pressure rows; those models are unaffected by the flow filter. The final choice is made together, based on material, workload and the hydraulic equipment of the carrier.
