Product Overview:

Viking West G-series Power Clam grapples are designed to perform in the most demanding logging operations. Our flexible design enables you to configure the grapple for maximum productivity in your specific application while our painstakingly detailed engineering design, manufacturing and real-world testing procedures ensure superior uptime with low maintenance and repair costs.

Configurable Design – Our G-Series power clam grapples are designed for maximum flexibility. Whether you are looking for 8, 10 or 12 cubic foot jaws, planning to attach to your carrier with wedge lock or direct pin on lugging, or wanting to use our standard fixed outriggers or optional hydraulic outriggers to handle full-length timber, these options are easy to configure at the time of order or implement later when the need arises.

Heavy-duty Bearing – Moving wood faster means increased demands on your grapple and dramatically increased forces on the main bearing. Viking West is the first grapple manufacturer to provide a heavy-duty double-row main bearing, which comes standard on all G-Series power clam grapples.

High-pressure Cylinders – Our thumb cylinders are designed and individually proof tested to 5800PSI for use with modern excavator high-pressure hydraulic systems.

AMCA Valve – Our G-Series power clam grapples feature an AMCA control valve, which has a superior design for high-vibration applications. This valve utilizes precision dowels to lock individual sections to each other, thereby greatly reducing susceptibility to leaking between sections caused by vibration and mounting surface flex.

Eaton Motors – Our G-Series power clam grapples feature dual Eaton VIS motors complete with precision ground drum profile pinion teeth for optimal tooth loading and extended life.

Integrated Flow Divider – Our G-Series power clam grapples feature an integrated flow divider for jaw movement synchronization.

Bull Nose Grapple Tips – Our bull nose grapple tips minimize damage to timber during loading, thereby protecting the value of your timber and are easily replaceable in the future if you wear them out.

Peace of Mind – Every Viking West G-Series power clam grapple comes with an industry-leading 24-month warranty. If you need our support, we promise to have service parts in stock and qualified technicians available to get you back up and running.
