Rotating Five Finger Grapples

All five finger grapples have the following features:

• Excellent CLAMPING FORCE using over sized pistons to securely grip any load.
• EXCLUSIVE LONG FINGER design - 5 heavy duty tines give easier penetration & greater bunching in every load.
• Belly plate to protect cylinder underneath - designed for minimum downtime.
• Every pin greaseable with protected grease nipples - designed for a long life.
• All excavator series made from the highest quality steel available - HARDOX.
• Built by a company specialising in grapples for over 20 years.
• Optional overcentre valves.
• Intermercato's fully hydraulic five finger grapples allow the operator to still have full control of the tilt cylinder so objects can be picked up and placed precisely with more ease. The tilt cylinder can also be used for efficient raking if desired.

Worm Drive Rotator

Worm drive rotators are DESIGNED TO HOLD LOADS AT ANY ANGLE. For positioning vertical poles, using a shear or chainsaw or just where perfect holding of the load is required. The compromise is speed, however the load can be positioned extremely accurately.

All worm drives have been balanced in torque and speed to give you a LONG operating life. The new NSL - non self locking is designed for further protect the worm drive in harsh conditions. The rotators low profile keeps the load centre in tight, and massive torque is developed from the worm gears. Strong steel gears are used in the WD series, perfect in forestry applications where shifting forces are constantly occurring.
