Description
HLA Attachments MB84GR72BO500 84-Inch Regular-Duty Loader Bucket with GR72 Grapple combines a standard front-end loader material bucket with a hydraulic Regular Utility Grapple for more controlled material handling. The bucket provides an 84-inch inside width, approximately 86-inch outside width and 24.9-cubic-foot SAE heaped capacity, while the GR72 grapple opens as wide as 70 inches. Built with reinforced structural areas, tapered self-cleaning end plates and two hydraulic cylinders, this package is designed for front-end loaders equipped with a compatible BO500 skid-steer-style quick-attach carrier.
Standard Material Bucket with an Integrated Utility Grapple
This HLA Attachments package pairs the MB84 regular-duty material bucket with the GR72 Regular Utility Grapple. The grapple helps retain and control material within the bucket, providing greater versatility than a standard open bucket. Its maximum 70-inch opening accommodates a broad range of loading and material-handling tasks, while two 2-1/2 by 8-inch hydraulic cylinders operate the grapple.
The bucket has a struck capacity of 19.7 cubic feet and an SAE heaped capacity of 24.9 cubic feet. At 28 inches deep and 25 inches high, it offers useful volume in a regular-duty configuration. The complete bucket and grapple package weighs approximately 955 pounds.
Reinforced Bucket Construction
The MB84 bucket is manufactured from 3/16-inch material and includes 1/4-inch end plates. A reinforced top lip adds strength along the upper edge, while the reinforced round back and end plates support durability and promote easy filling and cleanout. The round-back construction allows material to move smoothly into and out of the bucket.
Tapered, self-cleaning end plates are designed to reduce material buildup. Along the bottom edge, a 3/4 by 4-inch beveled cutting edge supports bucket loading performance. The bucket is also drilled to accept an optional bolt-on cutting edge, allowing it to be equipped for applications where an additional replaceable edge is desired.
Practical Operator Features
The flat bucket top serves as a convenient level indicator, helping the operator judge bucket position from the loader seat. The approximately 86-inch overall width provides broad coverage, while the integrated grapple supplies positive retention and control over the material in the bucket.
