Product overview
Trusted and used by many of Europe’s largest sawmills, the GH timber grapple by Powerhand is engineered for log handling and loading on excavators, materials handlers and loader cranes in sawmills and loading yards.

Features

• Low-profile log handling grapple designed for improved machine stability and reach
• Constructed for long service life and reduced downtime
• Compact overall height for greater stability and access
• Hardened chrome-plated pivot pins
• Accessible grease points for straightforward maintenance
• Guarded hydraulic cylinders for component protection
• Capacity range by model: 0.6 m² to 1.0 m²

Benefits

• Consistent loads: Powerhand’s log-hugging leg geometry helps logs roll into position and reduces hollow pockets, minimizing risk of slippage from the centre of the load.
