  • Crushing construction waste for recycling processes

With their high forces and stable joints, the grapples are ideal for large construction projects where productivity and durability are crucial.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about demolition grapples for large excavators

How are the grapples mounted on the excavator?

They are mounted using standard or quick-change systems. Adapter plates are available for almost all excavator types.

What is the difference between models for 5 t and 70 t excavators?

Larger models have stronger hydraulic cylinders, wider openings and higher crushing forces - adapted to the weight and power of the excavator.

How are the hydraulics controlled?

Via the excavator's hammer hydraulics or additional circuits. Control is precise via the excavator lever or a separate control valve.

What maintenance is required?

Only regular checks of the lubrication points and hydraulic connections. All components are arranged for easy servicing.

Are there models for special applications?

Yes - such as grapples with 360° rotating head or special jaws for concrete, steel or wooden structures.
