The 6–10 tonne excavator folding grab is a heavy-duty hydraulic grab with 7 interlocking HB400 steel tines, 3 on one side and 4 on the other. It sits between a manual grapple and a selector grab: fully hydraulic, so it moves more freely and accurately than a manual grapple, with more points of contact than a selector grab.
The interlocking tines work together to hold material tight against the grab housing, which cuts the risk of slippage. That makes it ideal for logs, stumps, brash and forest debris, and it also handles heavy material like stone and scrap metal.
It runs off one double-acting hydraulic circuit, or two if you add the 360° rotator, and it comes with a headstock tailored to fit your machine.

With or Without the Rotator?
Without the rotator, the grab costs less and runs on one circuit. The rotator version turns through 360°, so you can place material precisely without repositioning the machine. It needs a second double-acting circuit.
Where It Works Best
- Handling logs, stumps and forest debris
- Moving brash and timber on land clearance jobs
- Handling stone and rocks
- Moving scrap and other bulky debris
- Loading skips and trailers
Hydraulic Requirements
The grab needs one double-acting hydraulic circuit, or two with the rotator, and works at 200 bar. Connections vary between machines and quick hitches, so send us details or photos of yours before ordering. Don't assume hoses, couplings or installation parts are included unless they are listed on your quote.
Excavator and Quick-Hitch Compatibility
Machine weight is only a starting point. Excavators in the same weight class can use different pin sizes, linkage widths, quick hitches and auxiliary hydraulics, so please send us the following when you order:
- Excavator make and model
- Machine operating weight
- Quick hitch make and model, if you run one
- Pin diameter and pin centres
- Dipper width
- Details of your auxiliary hydraulic circuits
Our guide on how to measure an excavator for a new bucket shows how to take the pin measurements. If you can't measure, send us photos of your hitch and we'll help.
Delivery and Ordering
Each folding grab is supplied with a headstock to suit your confirmed machine and hitch. Delivery is usually within 7 to 10 working days, although factory lead times can change this. If you need the grab for a fixed date, contact us before ordering so we can confirm the current lead time.
6–10 Tonne Folding Grab FAQs
How is a folding grab different from a manual grapple?
A manual grapple works off the dipper cylinder with its inner jaw locked in place, which limits how it moves. The folding grab uses your excavator's hydraulics, so it opens and closes independently and moves more freely and accurately.
How is it different from a selector grab?
The 7 interlocking tines give it more points of contact than a selector grab, so it holds logs, brash and irregular material tight against its body.
What hydraulics does it need?
One double-acting hydraulic circuit, or two if you choose the 360° rotator.
Is the headstock included?
Yes. It comes with a headstock tailored to fit your machine, so send us your excavator and hitch details when you order.
Will it fit my 6–10 tonne excavator?
Machine weight is the starting point, but excavators in the same class can use different pins, linkage widths and quick hitches. Send us your machine model and hitch details and we'll confirm fitment before the grab is supplied.
