Product Evolution: The Next-Generation Grapple bucket in Testing!

The Grapple bucket is a high-performance bucket for all situations where it is difficult to grip material with a conventional bucket. Based on your feedback, we have developed an improved version of our grapple bucket, which is more robust and offers better protection for the hydraulic system.

Évolution Produit : Le Rétro Griffe Nouvelle Génération en Test !

We’re pleased to announce that the new version of the Grapple bucket is currently being tested by the client of our partner, 13TP Services.
This evolution is the result of your valuable feedback and our ongoing commitment to improving our products to better meet your needs in the field.

Your feedback:

  • Fittings and hoses too exposed, risking being torn off due to their orientation.
  • Hose clutter, especially problematic on smaller modules.

Our improvements :

  • New simplified design for more efficient manufacturing.
  • Redesigned hydraulic system: integration of two cylinders with a block, reducing the number of hoses between the cylinders.
  • Better hose integration: added a protective housing to conceal and shield them from external damage.

Deployment :

This new profile is already available on modules 0 to 3, suitable for machines from 800 kg to 7.5 tons.
It is available in Morin Original and S systems, and is also compatible with all other couplers.

No Additional Cost :

This evolution comes at no extra cost.
Our goal remains the same: to provide you with a product that is ever more reliable, robust, and suited to your needs.

What is a Rétro Griffe bucket used for?

The Rétro Griffe is a high-performance bucket for situations where gripping material is difficult with a standard bucket.
Two independent claws allow material to be clamped against the bucket for loading, rock placement, or handling operations.
It is operated via the excavator’s standard auxiliary line, and the claws are held in position by check valves, ensuring safety and efficiency.
