Product Description

Connect Work Tools Rotating Grapple | Model CG15 | Width 33.5" | Jaw Opening 65" | 9 To 19 Ton | For Excavators

DESCRIPTION

The Connect Work Tools CG15 Rotating Excavator Grapple is engineered for professionals who demand superior control, durability, and efficiency in material handling applications. Designed with advanced 360-degree hydraulic rotation, this grapple allows operators to precisely grab, position, and place materials from any angle making it ideal for tight job sites and complex tasks.

Built with high-strength steel construction, the CG15 is made to withstand the harshest environments, including demolition, land clearing, and recycling operations. Its fully guarded hydraulic cylinders provide enhanced protection against debris and damage, reducing downtime and extending the life of your equipment. The reversible bolt-on cutting edges further increase longevity while simplifying maintenance, allowing operators to quickly flip worn edges and continue working without interruption.

With a wide 65-inch jaw opening and optimized grapple geometry, the CG15 ensures a secure grip on logs, scrap, and irregular materials. Designed for excavators in the 9–19 ton range, this attachment delivers consistent performance, increased productivity, and long-term reliability making it an essential tool for demanding job sites.

Key Features

  • 360° Hydraulic Rotation Precision Control: Gain complete operational flexibility with full 360-degree hydraulic rotation, allowing precise positioning of materials from any angle. This feature significantly improves efficiency in confined spaces and complex job sites, reducing the need for constant repositioning of the excavator while enhancing overall workflow and productivity.
  • Heavy-Duty Steel Construction Durability: Manufactured from high-strength, wear-resistant steel, the CG15 grapple is built to endure the toughest working environments. Whether handling demolition debris or heavy logs, its robust structure ensures long-lasting performance and minimizes the risk of structural failure under extreme loads.
  • Fully Guarded Hydraulic Cylinder Protection: The CG15 features strategically enclosed hydraulic cylinders that protect critical components from debris, impact, and harsh conditions. This design reduces maintenance requirements, prevents costly damage, and ensures consistent, reliable performance over extended periods.
  • Reversible Bolt-On Cutting Edge System: Extend the lifespan of your grapple with reversible bolt-on cutting edges. When wear occurs, simply flip the edges instead of replacing them, saving both time and maintenance costs while maintaining optimal cutting and gripping performance.
  • Optimized Grapple Jaw Geometry Grip Strength: Engineered for superior gripping power, the jaw design ensures secure handling of logs, scrap, and irregular materials. This optimized geometry enhances load stability and reduces material slippage during lifting and transport.
  • Wide 65-Inch Jaw Opening Capacity: Handle larger and bulkier materials with ease thanks to the expansive 65-inch maximum jaw opening. This allows for improved material handling efficiency, reducing the number of cycles needed to complete tasks.
  • Efficient 21 GPM Hydraulic Flow Performance: Designed to operate at 21 GPM, the CG15 ensures smooth, responsive hydraulic performance. This optimized flow rate delivers consistent rotation and gripping power without overloading the excavator’s hydraulic system.
  • 14.2 ft³ Material Handling Capacity: Increase productivity with a high-capacity design that allows operators to move more material per cycle. This reduces operational time and boosts overall job site efficiency.
  • Versatile 9–19 Ton Excavator Compatibility: Specifically designed for mid-sized excavators, the CG15 offers seamless compatibility and balanced performance, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
  • Precision Sorting for Recycling Operations: Enhance sorting accuracy with precise control, making it easier to separate materials such as metal, wood, and debris. This improves recycling efficiency and material recovery rates.
  • Low Maintenance Design Efficiency: Engineered with durability and simplicity in mind, the CG15 minimizes maintenance requirements, reducing downtime and operational costs over the long term.
  • Secure Mounting System Integration: Includes a reliable mounting bracket and pins for quick and secure installation, ensuring the grapple stays firmly attached during demanding operations.
  • Enhanced Jobsite Productivity Output: By combining rotation, grip strength, and capacity, this grapple significantly reduces handling time and increases operational output across various applications.
  • Multi-Application Performance Versatility: Ideal for demolition, land clearing, storm cleanup, and recycling, the CG15 adapts easily to different job requirements, making it a highly versatile attachment.

Customer photo review of Forax Gas Powered Mulcher | Model GP40 | 40" Cutting Width | 14-15 HP | For Tractors

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops. Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

Forax Ultralight Mulcher | Model HP40 | Cutting Width 40" | Carrier 2-4-Ton | For Excavators

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
