Engcon’s new sorting grab

Engcon has developed a new sorting grab specifically for mini excavators. The new grab, the SK02, is suited to use with mini excavators in the 1.5-3tonne class. The new, smaller grab has been in demand for a long time by Engcon's mini excavator customers who find the larger SK05 too big for their machines. With a weight of only 109kg, a width of 400mm and a maximum grab strength of 5.7kN, the new SK02 is ideal for mini-diggers. Like most of Engcon's hydraulic tools, the top bracket is bolt-on and can

Like most of Engcon's hydraulic tools, the top bracket is bolt-on and can be easily adapted to the hitch that the digger-owner already has. The SK02 also has bolt-on cutting blades, prepared for digging teeth, and can be delivered with side cheeks so it can also be used as a clamshell bucket.
