Virnig V60 Large Capacity Skeleton Grapple | Models LCG72 & LCG84 | Widths 73" & 85" | Hydraulic Flow 15 To 25 GPM | For Skid Steers
DESCRIPTION
The Virnig V60 Large Capacity Skeleton Grapple is the ultimate heavy-duty skid steer attachment for land-clearing professionals, tree service operators, mulch yards, storm cleanup crews, and anyone who needs to move massive, uneven, or tangled loads with absolute control. Built for brute strength and long-term durability, this grapple is engineered to handle logs, brush, debris, and oversized materials that standard grapples simply cannot secure.
Designed with Virnig’s signature Grade 80 skeleton tines, NITROSTEEL® cylinder rods, and Teflon®-coated pivot bushings, the V60 Skeleton Grapple delivers exceptional clamping force, smooth operation, and extended service life in the harshest working environments. Its wide jaw opening of 62.8 inches allows operators to bite into large piles with ease, while fully gusseted tine tips maintain structural strength under heavy loads.
Compatible with all modern skid steers delivering 15–25 GPM hydraulic flow and boasting more than 2,400 lb rated operating capacity, this attachment is built to match today’s high-performance machines. If your work demands extreme strength, massive capacity, and reliable grip this grapple is your new go-to.
Estimated Skid Steer Horsepower Requirement:
Most skid steers with >2,400 lb ROC typically fall within the 65–95 HP range. If your machine meets the hydraulic flow and lift capacity requirements, it has adequate horsepower to run this grapple effectively.
