Orange Peel Grapple Key Features:

  1. Hydraulic Operation: The grapple is powered by a hydraulic cylinder that provides powerful and precise control of the teeth. This allows the operator to efficiently grab and release materials.
  2. Rotation Mechanism: Many orange peel grapples feature 360-degree hydraulic rotation. This provides greater flexibility in positioning the grapple, making it easier to grab materials from different angles without having to reposition the entire machine.
  3. Tooth Design: The teeth (or “claws”) are typically made of high-strength steel and shaped to interlock when closed. This design helps to securely grab irregularly shaped objects.
  4. Durability: These grapples are built to withstand harsh working environments and frequent use. They are typically reinforced to withstand the stress of lifting and transporting heavy objects.
  5. Versatility: Orange peel grapples are versatile tools used in a variety of industries, including recycling, demolition, forestry, and construction. They are particularly useful in operations that require materials to be handled quickly and efficiently.
  6. Size Variation: These grapples come in a variety of sizes and capacities to match different machines and material handling requirements.
