Paladin Rock Bucket & Grapple Attachment
Built for Strength. Engineered for Versatility.
When you need to dig through heavy rock, load debris, or grab irregular materials, the Paladin Rock Bucket & Grapple attachment is your heavy-duty solution. Designed for skid steers, excavators, or loaders, this tool combines the durability of a rock bucket with the gripping power of a grapple to streamline tough material handling tasks.
Key Features & Highlights
Heavy-Duty Rock Bucket Design — Reinforced sidewalls, wear bars, and thick cutting edges built to handle abrasion, impact, and rock load.
Integrated Grapple / Clam Shell Arms — Removable or fixed grapples allow you to grasp roots, logs, boulders, scrap, and other odd shapes.
Optimized Tine Spacing / Bucket Floor Design — Narrow gaps reduce slipping while letting fine soil or fines pass through.
Full Opening Grapple Capability — Arms open wide to dump or maneuver bulky payloads.
High Strength Frame & Mount — Forged pins, gussets, and weld reinforcements ensure structural integrity.
Bolt-On Wear Parts — Replaceable heels, side cutters, and blade segments simplify maintenance.
Multi-Fit Mount Systems — Available in universal skid steer quick attach style or machine-specific couplers (e.g. pin on, quick coupling).
Hydraulic Circuit — Often 1 or 2 hydraulic lines required for grapple actuation; built with durable hoses, fittings, and ram protection.
Positive Clamping Force — Grapple arms designed to maintain grip under load, with minimal flex or drift.
Versatility Across Tasks — Useful for rock clearing, demolition, forestry, land clearing, site prep, recycling, and demolition debris handling.
Performance & Benefits
Single-attachment efficiency — Instead of switching between bucket and grapple tools, this combination unit reduces changeovers and boosts productivity.
Improved control over irregular material — Grapple arms allow you to securely grab logs, rocks, roots, or scrap while the bucket handles bulk.
Durability for harsh work — Reinforcements and replaceable plates extend life even in abrasive, rocky ground.
Precision loading & placement — The grapple ensures better control when placing rocks or materials in tight spots.
Lower downtime & maintenance — Easy access to wear parts and modular replacement design keeps your attachment working longer.
Cost efficiency — One attachment handling multiple functions reduces tool inventory and investment costs.
