Like all grapples from Mack Manufacturing, the heavy-duty cylinders for this model are completely fabricated in Mack’s own machine shop.

The OPSIHCR-175-5 grapple is available with or without rotation, with the crane block ready to connect to any excavator or purpose-built material handler. Choose from a selection of tine designs, all equipped with weld-on replaceable teeth.
