HLA Attachments - 78" Debris Grapple Fork - 13 Tines - Hydraulic Material Handling [LA-SDB78BO500]

HLA Attachments SDB78BO500 78-Inch Debris Grapple Fork is a hydraulic material-handling attachment designed to collect brush, branches, loose debris and similar bulky material while allowing dirt to fall between the tines. Its 78-inch working width, 13 replaceable tempered tines and two independent grapples provide effective load control across the attachment. The BO500 skid-steer-style quick-attach configuration makes it suitable for compatible universal skid-steer-style carriers equipped with an appropriate auxiliary hydraulic circuit.

Built for Brush and Debris Handling

The open fork design helps separate wanted material from loose soil during cleanup and loading work. Thirteen tines are positioned on 6-inch centers, providing broad support for irregular loads without creating a solid floor that would carry excess dirt. Each tine measures 39 inches overall with 32 inches of usable length, giving the fork the reach needed to gather and retain brush or debris.

Unlike designs that use a support bar across the tine points, the SDB78 eliminates the tine-point support bar. This helps reduce material lodging and jamming during unloading, allowing brush and debris to release more cleanly when the grapples are opened.

Two Independent Grapples

Two independent grapples help secure uneven or irregular loads across the 78-inch attachment. This configuration allows the grapple sections to follow the shape of the material more effectively than a single full-width grapple. Hydraulic operation is provided by two 2-1/2 by 8-inch cylinders, which are fully protected from debris for demanding material-handling applications.

Key Features

• 78-inch hydraulic debris grapple fork for brush and debris collection

• Two fully protected 2-1/2 x 8-inch hydraulic cylinders
• Thirteen replaceable tempered tines
• Conus II cranked Kverneland tine design
• 39-inch overall tine length with 32 inches of usable length
• 6-inch tine spacing
• No tine-point support bar, helping reduce lodging and jamming during unloading
• BO500 skid-steer-style quick-attach interface
• Approximate attachment weight of 1,065 lb

Replaceable Tempered Tines

The SDB78 uses replaceable tempered Conus II cranked Kverneland tines. Their cranked profile and 32-inch usable length provide an open working area for gathering material, while the replaceable design supports practical maintenance if individual tines become worn or damaged. With 13 tines distributed at 6-inch centers, the fork combines load support with enough open space for dirt to pass through.

Carrier Compatibility

This SDB78BO500 variant is supplied with HLA mounting code BO500, a skid-steer-style quick-attach configuration. It is intended for universal skid-steer-style quick-attach carriers represented by this HLA mounting code. Confirm the carrier’s quick-attach interface, hydraulic capability and rated operating capacity before installation. The carrier must be capable of safely handling the attachment’s approximate 1,065 lb weight in addition to the intended load.

Hydraulic Requirements

An auxiliary hydraulic circuit is required to operate the two grapple cylinders. Hydraulic flow, pressure and coupler requirements are not specified. Available hydraulic options include the HK90 90-inch hose kit with flat-faced couplers, the HK9090 90-inch hose kit with 90-degree flat-faced couplers and the SHMK spring hose mount kit.
