HLA Attachments GR72 Regular Utility Grapple is a 72-inch hydraulic grapple-only assembly designed to fit a compatible 84-inch HLA fork or bucket. Built for material-handling applications, it opens up to 70 inches to accommodate bulky loads, including 4-foot round bales and materials such as manure. Hydraulic cylinders are included, allowing the grapple to add controlled gripping capability to a compatible host attachment. Please note that this product is the grapple assembly only; the 84-inch fork or bucket is not included.
The GR72 is intended to expand the functionality of an existing compatible HLA fork or bucket. Its 72-inch working width provides broad load coverage, while the 70-inch maximum opening allows it to close around large or irregular material. It is suitable for farm, livestock, property-maintenance, and general material-handling tasks where a standard fork or bucket needs additional load-retention capability.
With the ability to accommodate 4-foot round bales, the grapple can be used for common bale-handling work when installed on the appropriate host attachment. It is also suitable for gripping and moving materials such as manure. The hydraulic cylinders are supplied with the grapple, reducing the number of major components required when adding it to a compatible setup.
The HLA GR72 mounts to a compatible 84-inch HLA fork or bucket. Compatible HLA model families include SB, SBHV, MB, MBHV, MFE, and SFR. No independent quick-attach hitch is specified for the grapple because it is designed to be installed on the host fork or bucket rather than used as a standalone attachment.
Confirm that the intended host attachment is an 84-inch compatible HLA model before ordering. The fork, bucket, and machine-side mounting system are not included with this grapple-only assembly.
Hydraulic cylinders are included with the GR72. Hydraulic hoses are available separately in two optional 90-inch configurations: the HK90 hose kit with flat-faced couplers and the HK9090 hose kit with 90-degree flat-faced couplers. Hydraulic flow and pressure requirements are not specified.
