Product Description

When the job calls for serious power and extra reach, the Ignite Attachments 68-Inch Root Grapple delivers. Built 6 inches wider than the 62-inch model, this heavy-duty skid steer attachment moves more roots, logs, brush, rocks, and debris in fewer passes — getting land cleared faster and with less effort.

Designed and manufactured in the USA with American-made parts, this root grapple is built to take a beating on the toughest job sites. The dual independent tines flex around uneven, awkward loads and lock them in tight — nothing slips, nothing drops. Two heavy-duty hydraulic cylinders give you serious clamping force when conditions get rough, and the open tine design lets dirt and soil fall through naturally so you're only moving what needs to go.

Hardened, greaseable 1¼-inch pins and tough nylon sleeves keep maintenance simple and service life long. Faster flat-faced hydraulic couplers snap in quickly even with pressure in the lines — less hookup time, more work time. And every unit comes off the line with laser-precision manufacturing for a tight fit and consistent strength you can count on from day one.

Fits most skid steers and loaders with a universal quick attach plate — compatible with major brands including Bobcat, Case, John Deere, Kubota, and Caterpillar.

Ideal For: Farmers, landowners, land clearing contractors, construction crews, demolition operators, and anyone who needs maximum coverage and power to move heavy material fast and clean.

Q&A

Q: What is the difference between the 62-inch and 68-inch root grapple?
A: The 68-inch model is 6 inches wider, weighs 40 lbs. more, and covers more ground per pass — making it the better choice for larger jobs where speed and coverage matter. Both models share the same build quality and features.

Q: Will this root grapple fit my skid steer or loader?
A: Yes. This grapple uses a universal quick attach plate compatible with most major skid steer and loader brands including Bobcat, Case, John Deere, Kubota, and Caterpillar. We recommend confirming your machine's attachment style and lift capacity before ordering.

Q: Can my machine handle the weight of this grapple?
A: The 68-inch root grapple weighs 840 lbs. Make sure your machine's rated operating capacity can safely handle that weight plus the load you plan to carry.

Q: Does the open tine design let dirt fall through while holding the load?
A: Yes — that is one of its best features. The evenly spaced tines let dirt and soil fall through naturally while the grapple holds your logs, roots, and brush firmly in place for a clean, efficient haul.

Q: Can I connect the hydraulic couplers with pressure still in the lines?
A: Yes. The faster flat-faced hydraulic couplers are designed to connect quickly and easily even with pressure in the lines — no tools or special equipment needed.

Q: How do I maintain the pins to make sure they last?
A: The 1¼-inch hardened pins are greaseable, so regular greasing is all it takes to keep them in great shape and extend the service life of your attachment.

Q: Is this root grapple good for moving rocks as well as roots and brush?
A: Absolutely. The 68-inch root grapple handles roots, logs, brush, stumps, rocks, and general heavy debris — anything hard to move and hard to handle on a job site.

Q: Is this attachment made in the USA?
A: Yes. The Ignite Attachments root grapple is designed and manufactured in the USA using American-made components.
