Don't know much about the Titan but sure like my Wicked 50 inch single lid. I especially like the way the upper and lower tines come together so I can pick up small sticks and rocks.

The weight of the Titan 48" has been discussed in another thread. They list it as either 450 or 500 lbs, but similarly constructed grapples with the same tine width are in the 300 lb category. Titan ships in a metal frame crate and speculation is they list shipping weight. The wicked is a nice grapple but fairly expensive. I can't see how you you could go wrong with the Titan, particularly if it is in the 300 lb range, preserving your lift capacity. I have one of their other grapples, their forks and one of their adapter plates. Never have had a failure of any sort. But look at the wicked for sure, many people like them.

I haven't done a write up yet, but I purchased the Everything Attachments Compact Utility grapple back in the summer and I love it. They rate it for up to 35 hp tractors but I put it on my 40 hp Kubota L4060 and have had zero issues. My tractor also weighs almost 6000# so I don't think weight would be an issue either.

It's much cheaper than the Wicked and a lot lighter than the Titan.

I have the Titan 48" and I have been very pleased with its performance.

They are solid for sure. Is there any way you can measure the weight of it? Other 48" grapples with the same 3/8" tine thickness and roughly the same dimensions list out in the 300 lb range. Titan ships in a steel frame and on a pallet and I think their listing on 500 lbs is too high, likely a high estimate shipping weight.

I emailed titan and they said the 48 inch grapple weighed 450lb.that does not leave me much to work with on a la524 loader.thanks for your help guys

The problem I see with the 48" Titan grapple for MY uses is that the lid does not have a center "tooth". So, if you want to pick up a rock or something small, you need to use one side or the other of the grapple in order to have the lid clamp down on it.

Their 60" grapple solves that problem by adding a center tooth.
