The robust clamshell bucket is for handling loose material such as sand, gravel, soil perfectly matched to heavy duty work on vehicle mounted cranes.

• Excellent filling characteristics of the rugged grapple due to the special shape of the buckets and the wide separation between their axes that enables wide opening

• Practically no material left overs to be picked up as the working edges are vertical when the buckets are open, which allows a deep plunge into a pile of material

• High stability through reinforced buckets, torsion-free frame, generously dimensioned bearing system and the use of 500 HB steel in the manufacture of cutting edges

• Combination of compensator mechanism and cylinder guard has many advantages: parallel action, longer life for piston rod and seals, significant weight savings

• A special V-section sealing ring prevents the ingress of water and dirt

• Efficient handling with a high closing force of 28 kN at an operating pressure of 260 bar
