Strong, Reliable, and Built for Hard Work
If you own a skid steer, adding a grapple bucket can make your job easier—and your machine more useful. At Melecio Attachments, we build high-quality skid steer grapple buckets that help you tackle tough tasks like moving logs, cleaning up debris, and handling heavy or awkward loads.
What Is a Grapple Bucket?
A grapple bucket is a special kind of bucket with strong, claw-like arms that open and close. These arms help you grab, lift, and hold onto things that a regular bucket might drop or spill. Think of it like a big, powerful hand that attaches to your skid steer.
Grapple buckets are great for construction, farming, landscaping, and even clearing brush or trees in forestry work.
Why Choose a Melecio Skid Steer Grapple Bucket?
We’re a family-run company based in Mendota, Illinois, and we take pride in building products that last. Here’s what sets our grapple buckets apart:
✅ Built Tough
Our buckets are made from high-strength steel and designed to stand up to heavy-duty use. Whether you’re picking up big rocks, pulling tree limbs, or moving scrap, our welds and reinforcements make sure your bucket holds strong.
✅ Powerful Gripping
Our grapple arms have tight, reliable grip strength, so you don’t have to worry about things falling out. They’re perfect for gripping uneven or bulky items, like brush piles, logs, or construction debris.
✅ Smooth Operation
Each grapple bucket is built with easy hydraulic hook-ups, smooth cylinders, and thoughtfully designed curves or tines—so they perform well in real-world conditions, not just on paper.
🇺🇸 USA-Made Quality
All of our grapple buckets are made right here in the USA. We care about quality and it shows in every weld, cylinder, and powder-coated finish.
