Our Advanced Mechanical Jaws Offer Exceptional Strength and Durability
This premium machinery comes with many excellent features that make it stand out from standard attachments on the market.
The heavy equipment uses high-quality steel to build the outer structure, which helps it resist heavy wear and tear in harsh working conditions.
Every single hydraulic orange peel grab is designed with strong cylinders that are protected inside the main frame to avoid accidental damage from sharp scrap pieces.
Depending on your specific job site needs, you can choose models that perfectly match your excavator size. For example, our smaller model fits a 6-9T machine and weighs around 355/420kg, while our heavy-duty version fits a larger 18-25T excavator and has a total weight of 1700/1950kg.
With a maximum working pressure reaching up to 320bar and a maximum structural capacity of 1.0m³, this durable hydraulic orange peel grapple provides smooth operations and long-lasting performance for all material handling tasks.
How Does the Orange Peel Grab Actually Work?
The hydraulic orange peel grab works using the power of hydraulic oil. The excavator sends pressurized oil into the grab’s hydraulic cylinder. That cylinder pushes a rod that moves all the jaws at the same time. When the oil flows one way, the jaws open wide like a flower. When the oil flows the opposite way, the jaws close tightly around the material. The curved shape of each jaw helps hold things inside without dropping them. As the operator moves the lever, oil flows faster or slower, so you can open and close the grab gently or quickly.
The jaws are made of strong steel with sharp tips that dig into loose piles. Once the grab closes, you lift the whole load and move it to another place. Then you open the jaws to release. This simple but smart design lets one person do the work of several workers with shovels. That is why the orange peel grab is so popular in recycling and demolition jobs.
This Grab to Work in Many Places
This versatile heavy attachment is incredibly popular across many different fields due to its ability to handle random, irregular materials.
You will frequently see this equipment working in large metal recycling facilities, where it easily moves tons of old cars, steel pipes, and metal turnings into large crushing machines.
Port docks also use this multi-claw tool to quickly unload bulk cargo from giant ships, helping logistics companies save a lot of time and labor costs.
Municipal workers find it highly useful for cleaning up city waste, fallen tree branches, and construction debris after severe weather events.
Furthermore, demolition teams rely on this tool to clear away broken concrete blocks and iron bars from old building sites safely.
Advantages of the Hydraulic Orange Peel Grapple
First, the unique multi-jaw shape provides multiple contact points, which means the hydraulic orange peel grab can hold loose materials much more securely without spilling small pieces on the ground.
Second, the wide opening lets you grab more material in each cycle. For example, the YG-08B model can hold one cubic meter per grab. That means fewer trips back and forth.
Third, this attachment can be specialized rotation systems that allow the entire attachment to spin a full 360 degrees, giving operators excellent flexibility to reach tight corners easily.
Fourth, it is very durable. We use high-strength steel and hard-to-wear pins. The cylinders have dust wipers to keep dirt out. Every single hydraulic orange peel graple undergoes strict quality control checks before leaving the manufacturing factory.
Fifth, it works with many excavator brands. We also can provide customization services for the orange peel grapple according to your excavator. Get in touch with us to learn more details.
