Titan Attachments

[Navvet]

I have their toothbar and clamp on forks and I think they work great! Had to do a bit of grinding to get the toothbar to fit nice and snug, but that is probably because my bucket is "used" pretty well. Good pricing on their stuff and good delivery time, no complaints at all.

The more I look at their bolt on tooth bar i am thinking I will weld the tooth bar on.

My bucket is 3 years old and showing a dip in the center. If I weld the tooth bar, that should give the bucket more strength ....

A few months ago, I bought a pair of their 48" pallet forks and I made my own frame for them to slide on. Quality seems very good. I haven't bent them yet!

I think the tomahawk 66" single lid like I got is only 415#. Dont really notice any difference when compared to the OEM HD bucket.

This is off the top of my head but I think the Kubota HD bucket is something like 400 or 450lbs. It is darn heavy - I think my grapple is around 700ish and I have no problems on my MX with it.

Titan historically is a little hit and miss on fit and finish. But value and heavy duty have always been there in my opinion.

I didn't know there was an HD bucket. I believe the one I bought said something about Light or med. duty bucket. I knew I got taken. LOL

This is off the top of my head but I think the Kubota HD bucket is something like 600 or 650lbs. It is darn heavy - I think my grapple is around 700ish and I have no problems on my MX with it.

Which grapple do you have ? I looked at the tomahawk. I just would prefer the dual cylinders like on the titan, or everything attachments 200# grapple

Which EA model grapple is 200 lbs?

They say their 55 inch wicked root rake grapple is around 209 #

Funny you ask - I am not really sure. Found it locally and it was unbranded but VERY solid! I only went with a 48" due to the weight but I do only have a single cylinder style. I know the tines are ½" and the main frame is heavier. Honestly it is over built for a tractor but I thought I may buy a skid steer someday and thought I would be able to use it on that also.

There is company called WildKat I bought a stump bucket from a good while back. They were reasonable and had decent quality for the price. Granted it was a bucket and sort of hard to screw that up but the welds were good and it held up good. Here is their website in case you are interested:

Just saw this on Craigslist and thought of your thread:
5' 2 Cylinder HD Grapple - farm & garden - by owner - sale

I've got the 55" EA grapple, it's been great so far. I really like the full width lid which makes grabbing stuff that you can't approach head on easy.

yes, I really like the single lid. The cylinders and lines are tucked away on the sides making them more protected than the ones that mount on top.

The fact that it only weights a little over 200 # means it doesn't reduce my loader lift capacity .

They tested this grapple on a 61 ? hp tractor and it seemed to hold up fine .. I will be installing it on a 50 HP tractor

RAKE grapple. Gotcha. I was thinking L grapple

Yeah they did a nice job of hiding the lines on the back of the grapple.

Yea, talking about two different types of grapples here.

I was thinking the Kubota HD round bucket was like 370# or something.

LD1 Your a LOT closer than I originally was - I was wrong, the reference I just found listed it at 400lbs (HD 72"), and 465lbs with the cutting edge bolted on. I been looking for a 84" mulch/trash/snow bucket myself so I figured I would get an idea of what my normal one weights.

I'm looking at their hydraulic flail mowers that seem to be a very good price. I think they're a new product for them so I haven't actually found anyone who owns one yet.

I've also been looking at their tree puller.

The Titan equipment (with very few exceptions) is all imported from china. The flail mowers are all over Alibaba and imported/sold by a couple other vendors (like Betsco) - Best I can remember they are selling the AGL and AGF series mowers.
You can search here for those models as well as Betsco to see the discussion on the products. I remember one thread where a fellow that works for/with one of the manufacturers in China said that there are different factories putting out the same equipment so quality can vary from factory to factory on the same model mower.

I have been interested in them myself for quite some time (long before Titan carried them & I even contacted Titan about carrying them). My take on what I have found so far is they seem to be of decent (not top or premium) quality for the money. There are certainly better / higher quality mowers on the market (at twice the dollar cost) and only you can decide which one(s) fit your usage & budget requirements.

My thoughts on buying a grapple when I was shopping.....

Buy cheap.

I don't need a monster 1000# grapple that cost $3k
I don't need a super engineered featherweight for $2k+

I need simple and effective. So i took the approach of $1000 will buy me 400+/- pounds of steel, all cut to shape and tack welded in place, hydraulics included.

Knowing full well that I may have to fix bad welds, add some gussets, or repair some stress cracks after some hard use. Was worth it to save thousands IMO.

The fact that I have had to do nothing and have used it pretty hard.....that's a bonus for me.

The rake-type grapples wouldn't work well for me. I like to watch on to the end of logs and drag them, or pick them up by the end for bucking.

This one is about 4" on the small end and about 10" on the big end and about 25-30' long. Makes for easy bucking

Seems like you could do the same thing with the wicked grapple. I don't plan on ripping roots out of the ground, just moving trees, and brush. I have a bucket thumb on my yanmar. I'm just looking for something different for the Kubota

Hummm, you started this thread asking about Titan Attachments, and it looks like you have steered this thread as a sales pitch for EA. And I have noticed hundreds of threads doing the same thing. Just seems all to common on TBN. something smells funny as some one is using many fake user accounts to control the narrative for sales.
