The CAEL Non-Rotating Hydraulic Log Grapple is designed for excavator operators who need strong, reliable gripping performance without the added complexity of a rotating attachment. Built for 4–8 ton excavators, this grapple is suitable for log handling, firewood processing, land clearing, tree removal, brush management, and storm cleanup.

Its fixed-body design delivers a direct and robust connection, making it well suited for high-cycle material-handling applications where strength, durability, and simple operation are priorities.

Designed for Efficient Material Handling

The CAEL hydraulic grapple provides powerful clamping force for securely handling logs, timber, brush, branches, firewood, and storm debris.

Because the grapple does not rotate, its fixed construction provides a straightforward operating design for applications where continuous material positioning is not required. This makes it particularly suitable for repetitive handling and cleanup work.

Durable Construction for Rugged Conditions

A high-strength T1 steel frame provides structural durability, while AR400 steel reinforcement in high-wear areas helps resist impact and abrasion.

The replaceable pin-on teeth allow worn components to be serviced without replacing the entire grapple. Sealed hydraulic components are designed to support dependable operation in demanding outdoor environments.
