Selection guidance

Choose the tine arrangement around the material

Four-, five- and six-tine configurations change how the grab engages with loose or irregular material. The wider catalogue also includes Z-series and waste-handling PLY-W configurations for more specific duties.

  • Material type, density and typical piece size
  • Required volume, load and throughput
  • Crane or carrier details and working geometry
  • Available pressure and flow
  • Required rotation and suspension arrangement

Rotator and system

Specify the attachment and rotator together

The catalogue recommendation is a starting point. Rotator load ratings, flow, connections and the complete suspension arrangement must be checked against the selected grab and duty.

Talk to us

Send us the material, machine and duty

We can narrow the range and recommend the configuration around what you need to handle and what the grab is going onto.
