Star Industries Root Grapple Buckets
Heavy-Duty Power for Land Clearing, Storm Cleanup, and Demolition Work
The Star Industries Root Grapple Bucket is built for contractors, landscapers, and cleanup crews who need reliable performance when moving bulky, uneven, or irregular loads. Designed with curved root grapple tines that angle upward, these buckets reduce the risk of catching cables, utility lines, or buried debris during storm cleanup or land clearing. Independent hydraulic cylinders allow each grapple to adjust separately, providing excellent grip and balance on uneven loads.
The open-bottom design lets dirt, sand, and small debris fall through while retaining large material like logs, roots, and rocks, ideal for site cleanup, waste management, and material sorting. Each grapple bucket features rugged, heavy-duty steel construction for long service life, with reinforced side plates, protected grease zerks, and shielded hydraulic cylinders to prevent accidental damage. Optional intermediate tines can also be added to close the gaps between bottom tines to approximately 4 inches for finer debris handling.
Whether you’re clearing storm debris, removing brush, or tackling demolition waste, the Star Industries Root Grapple delivers the strength, precision, and durability that demanding worksites require.

Safety & Operation
Ensure the grapple is securely locked onto the quick-tach plate before operation.
Inspect hydraulic hoses, fittings, and cylinders for leaks or wear; confirm all pins are secured with hairpins or cotter pins.
Never exceed the rated lift capacity of the grapple or skid steer.
Operate only on level, stable ground and keep loads low while traveling to maintain stability.
Use smooth, controlled movements when clamping or releasing material to avoid shifting or equipment strain.
Keep all personnel clear of the work area; never lift or carry loads over people.
After use, lower the grapple to the ground, relieve hydraulic pressure, and clean debris before storage.
