Description

HLA Attachments SGB54-BO500 54-Inch Scrap Grapple Bucket is a hydraulic material-handling attachment built for controlling awkward, abrasive loads with a loader or skid steer. Its 54-inch inside width combines an 11.9 cu ft struck capacity with a 15.3 cu ft SAE heaped capacity, while two independently operating hydraulic grapples help secure uneven material across the bucket. This model is equipped with the HLA BO500 quick-attach mounting configuration and is designed for demanding loading, cleanup, sorting, and material-handling applications.

Heavy-Duty Bucket Construction

The SGB54 is constructed with 1/4-inch bucket material and 3/8-inch end plates to withstand contact with abrasive and irregular loads. A 3/4 x 6-inch bevelled cutting edge supports effective bucket entry and material pickup. For operators who want an additional replaceable wear surface, the bucket is also drilled to accept a standard bolt-on cutting edge.

With an overall height of 31 inches and an overall depth of 34 inches, the bucket provides practical material capacity in a compact 54-inch-width configuration. Its approximate 1,000 lb attachment weight should be considered when matching it to the host machine’s rated operating capacity.

Independent Hydraulic Grapples

Two independently operating grapples help the attachment conform to mixed, uneven, or offset loads. Each grapple is powered by a 2-1/2 x 8-inch hydraulic cylinder. Because the grapples operate independently, they can apply control across material that may not sit uniformly within the bucket, making the SGB54 suitable for handling awkward scrap and other difficult loads.

The attachment requires auxiliary hydraulics from the host loader or skid steer to operate both grapple cylinders. A verified hydraulic flow or pressure requirement is not published for this model, so the machine’s hydraulic suitability should be confirmed before installation.

Compatibility

The SGB54-BO500 is configured for loaders and skid steers using the HLA BO500 quick-attach mounting code. HLA lists BO500 for selected New Holland agricultural loaders and models equipped with skid-steer-style carriers. Because the BO500 code appears across multiple manufacturer and model listings, compatibility must be verified against the specific host machine and loader carrier before purchase.

Host Machine Requirements

The host machine must have a compatible BO500 quick-attach carrier and auxiliary hydraulic service for operating the two grapple cylinders. Confirm the machine’s attachment handling capacity, hydraulic compatibility, carrier dimensions, and loader model before installation. The bucket’s approximate 1,000 lb weight must be included when evaluating the machine’s available lifting and operating capacity.
