Caterpillar has introduced a pair of new orange peel grapples the company says are designed for a variety of material handling and construction applications.
Replacing the GSH20B-Series grapples, the new GSH425 and GSH525 feature a design with horizontal cylinders, which Cat says creates a profile allowing for greater material penetration and more efficient bulk-material handling.
For added durability, the grapples boast a high-grade, impact-resistant steel construction that protects vulnerable areas such as the hydraulic cylinders. They also feature high quality bushings with lubrication grooves and hardened pins in all the pivot points. The tines have replaceable cast tips made from a wear-resistant material.
