The lifting capacity of the heavy-duty skeleton grapple depends on the model and skid steer specifications. However, most models can lift materials up to 2500 lbs. It’s important to check the specifications to ensure the grapple is compatible with your skid steer and can handle the intended load.

The heavy-duty skeleton grapple typically requires a skid steer with standard hydraulic flow. Depending on the specific model, it may require a flow rate between 12 to 25 GPM (gallons per minute). For optimal performance, always verify the hydraulic flow requirements before use to ensure compatibility with your skid steer loader.

The open-frame design of the heavy-duty skeleton grapple enhances efficiency by allowing better visibility and easier material sorting. The absence of a full frame makes it lighter, reducing strain on the skid steer, while also providing more clearance for operators to maneuver through tight spaces. This design helps with faster material handling and reduces the risk of unnecessary damage to materials, making the grapple more efficient during demanding tasks.
