The CMP Hydra Grapple is a heavy-duty excavator attachment built for large-scale land clearing, storm recovery, and precision debris sorting. Its bypass tine design grips everything from full-size logs to loose brush, making it a core tool for site prep, emergency cleanup, and demolition support.
Pre-Construction & Subdivision Site Prep
Before grading starts, the site has to be clear. The Hydra Grapple’s bypass tines close fully around a single downed log or scoop up a scattered brush pile without swapping attachments, cutting the number of passes a crew needs to clear a lot.
Brush and Stump Removal for Agriculture & Trails
Ripping stumps and clearing new farm ground or trail corridors takes real breakout force. The Hydra Grapple’s rotational torque pulls stumps free and drags brush clear in one motion.
Invasive Species & Overgrown Vegetation Removal
Cutting back invasive brush doesn’t work if the roots stay in the ground. The grapple’s precision grip pulls plants out by the root ball, so they don’t just grow back next season.
Removing and Relocating Downed Trees
After a windstorm, timber is tangled, heavy, and unpredictable. The Hydra Grapple’s high-tensile steel body and rotational grip handle that load without the guesswork of chains or straps.
Utility Trench Cleanup
Clearing debris near buried lines and trenches means working close without making contact. The grapple’s controlled rotation lets operators place material precisely instead of dragging it blind.
Sorting Scrap Metal, Concrete, and Demo Materials
Property Cleanup: Fence Posts & Root Balls
Old fence posts and small root balls slow down renovation jobs. The Hydra Grapple pulls both clean, speeding up prep before new construction starts.
