The R18 Rotating Log Grapple is engineered to expand the handling capability of your R18 excavator by providing enhanced control through a rotating grapple design. Unlike fixed grapples, the rotating function allows operators to position logs, debris, and bulky materials at the ideal angle, improving workflow efficiency and reducing the need to reposition the machine.
Designed with a reinforced steel structure built for demanding jobsite environments, this attachment enables efficient lifting, sorting, and loading of materials during land-clearing, forestry, and construction cleanup operations. The rotating capability makes it especially useful when working in tight spaces or when precise placement is required, helping operators improve productivity while maintaining smooth control.
