Multi-Purpose Grabs – also known as excavator grabs or selector grabs – are universal pieces of equipment in the construction field used for sorting, demolition and transporting tasks. They are used for safely and easily lifting and moving materials such as bricks, concrete blocks, rubble or even small pieces of scrap metal.
A multi-purpose grab features large jaws that apply pressure to either side of an object or pile of mixed materials. Operators are then able to grab, select, handle, move, rotate and lift materials. They feature a heavy-duty structure, full 360° hydraulic rotation when supplied with correctly specified rotator and linkage and have a wide grab area. The unique design of the grab creates excellent wide opening geometry allowing rapid productivity.
Multi-purpose grabs are essential for construction tasks that involve the selection, handling and transportation of materials. Our RiteSpec Serie BSG is a versatile bucket which is suited to building, earthmoving and recycling tasks.
These grabs are also widely used in the demolition industry for primary stripping works and then the subsequent clearance of sites. In the recycling industry, multi-purpose grabs are a useful partner for the sorting and selection of skip and other waste products in waste transfer yards.
Multi-purpose grabs are essential to the construction industry as they enable workers to move large amounts of materials quickly and efficiently. Bricks, earth and rubble are heavy and cumbersome building materials and a durable, robust handling tool is required. Materials can be transported around a site, or onto or out of a larger tipper lorry.
PCM Handling stocks the RiteSpec Serie BSG. These hydraulic grab buckets are specifically designed for moving and transporting bricks, concrete blocks and mixed materials and have a maximum lifting capacity of 2000kg for BSG 750 and BSG 750 TG models. Our multi-purpose sorting grabs are available for 1-tonne through to 10-tonne machines.
Our RiteSpec Serie BSG has excellent durability for working in tough construction environments. The load jaws are interchangeable according to the given material and the wear blades can also often be changed and reversed. Teeth can also be mounted to the grabs to improve efficiency and reduce maintenance costs. The design of the grabs creates excellent wide opening geometry allowing rapid productivity.
