MB Crusher has introduced MB-G400 and MB-G500 sorting grapple attachments for handling demolition materials on construction sites. The MB-G400 weighs 441 lbs. and is designed for mini excavators from 5,500 lbs. to 8,900 lbs. The MB-G500 weighs 926 lbs. and can be used on mini excavators from 11,200 lbs. to 15,700 lbs.
These new sorting grapples have a wide claw opening, allowing them to move and handle large materials. A load-holding valve prevents accidental opening of the claws in the event of a sudden drop in pressure from the carrier machine. The products also have a silent block, which allows the attachments to be used in areas where noise needs to be kept under control. The wear parts are made of Hardox.
Both models are designed for installation of an electrical kit for two-hose function, enabling the grapple to rotate 360° even on excavators that only have a two-hose auxiliary set up. Replaceable blades can be turned upside down to extend their wear life.
Both models are available in two variants, with or without a rotating tower. The attachments can also can be paired with a selection of accessories that simplify material handling tasks: a clam shell kit, for picking up and handling small material, loading soil, gravel and sand; a serrated side plate kit, for handling material of specific shapes; and for the MB-G500, a rubber protection kit, for handling blocks of linear and delicate material and a grip improvement kit.
