Product Overview

Orange peel grabs are specifically designed for materials that cannot be handled efficiently with conventional clamshell grabs.

The multiple-tine configuration allows the grab to penetrate, capture and securely hold irregular cargo such as:
  • Scrap metal
  • HMS scrap
  • Rocks
  • Boulders
  • Pig iron
  • Demolition debris
  • Bulk industrial waste
Their robust mechanical design makes them suitable for continuous duty operations where reliability and low maintenance are essential.
