Overview
MB-G500 S4 Sorting Grapple – Key Features & Specifications
MB-G500 S4 – Advanced Sorting Grapple for Midi Excavators
The MB-G500 S4 Sorting Grapple is a versatile, heavy-duty attachment engineered for excavators from 5 to 8 tons (5,000 – 8,000 kg). Its compact yet powerful design makes it ideal for demanding jobs such as moving stones, logs, brush, debris, and dry wall placement in construction, landscaping, forestry, and agricultural environments.
Featuring a wide jaw opening, the MB-G500 easily grips and positions bulky materials. A load-holding valve ensures maximum safety on site, while interchangeable blades can be reversed to extend their service life. The grapple is also fitted with Hardox® wear parts for unmatched durability in tough environments.
For excavators with only two hydraulic lines, the unit supports an optional electrical kit to enable smooth 360° hydraulic rotation. Additionally, a silent block minimizes vibration and noise, making it ideal for work in sensitive or urban zones.
