Loflin Fabrication Skid Steer Standard Duty Root Grapple

Loflin’s grapple buckets feature spaced tines that allow dirt to sift through while independent tines powered by 2" x 10" cylinders deliver up to 9,500 lbs of grappling force. Built with 1/2" thick steel and a reinforced quick-attach, they’re designed for machines up to 75 HP. Durability is built in with fully protected hoses, covered hydraulic cylinders, greasable hinge points, and oversized 1 1/4" greasable pins.

With a 34 ½" opening width, these grapples slide smoothly over the ground without digging in or causing damage. Equipped with genuine Parker hoses, fittings, and couplers, they’re job-site ready. Sizes range from 60" to 84" with custom tine spacing available to fit your needs.

Not sure if the attachment you're considering will fit your machine? Here’s a complete guide to ensuring attachment compatibility.

1. Attachment Mounting Type

Your machine’s mounting plate must match the attachment’s plate for a proper fit. While most manufacturers now follow a "universal" standard, making many attachments interchangeable, there are still exceptions—so always double-check compatibility.

2. Hydraulic Connections and Flow Rate

If the attachment requires hydraulics, ensure that both the machine and attachment have compatible hydraulic couplers. Additionally, the machine’s auxiliary hydraulic flow rate must fall within the attachment’s required range. If the attachment doesn’t use hydraulics, you can skip this step.

3. Machine Lift Capacity

Your machine’s rated operating capacity (ROC) must be able to handle the attachment’s weight. For attachments like buckets and concrete mixers, don’t forget to factor in the weight of the material they’ll be carrying to avoid exceeding your machine’s limits.

If you're unsure about your machine's make or model, check your operator's manual or consult your equipment dealer.
