Ignite Attachments has expanded its lineup of construction equipment offerings with three new mini grapple attachments. The new mini bucket, mini rock and mini rake grapples are available in 36- and 44-in. working widths.
A dual interface facilitates paring with various brands of mini track loaders making this a solution for rental centers and mixed-fleet landscape operations.
“When it comes to working in the tightest spots, more and more people are turning to mini track loaders or skid steers,” said Trisha Pearson, business director for Ignite Attachments. “Ignite Attachments works to meet owners/operators where they are, not the pigeonhole our stagnant industry tries to put them in. We recognize the need for cost-effective mini solutions that are dependable, versatile and easy to use.”

Mini Bucket Grapple
Like the company's line of full-size grapples, the mini bucket grapple, and others in the new offering, feature a laser-cut Grade 50 steel design. This results in a tight fitting attachment with a long service life. The mini bucket grapple strikes a balance between weight and strength.
With a grapple opening of 26.6 in. and a minimum height of 22.1 in., the Ignite mini bucket grapple maneuvers in tight spaces. The design puts the single 2.25-in. bore by 1-in. rod cylinder behind the bucket, rather than on top, for protection in demanding applications. Combined with standard flat-faced couplers and full-length nylon hose sleeves, this design also promotes service life.
Mini Rock Grapple
The mini rock grapple features many of the same base capabilities, including Ignite’s dual interface. These attachments pair with both mini Bob-Tach and CII machines thanks to the faceplate design, allowing for integration with mixed fleets or new carrier investments.
The grapple opening on this offering is 25.9 in. with a tine spacing of 3 in. for rock and debris removal.
Ignite Attachments
Mini Rake Grapple
The mini rake grapple features slightly wider tine spacing, 6.75 in. on the 36-in. model, which allows operators to remove debris with less soil disturbance. It offers a 36-in. grapple opening.
Greaseable pins and heavy-duty cylinder protection promote service life in a range of applications.
“Compact equipment owners and operators are constantly looking for easier, more cost-effective ways to get the job done,” said Pearson. “Our lineup of mini grapples are reliable, cost-smart and productive no matter your carrier brand. They’re designed to stand up to the toughest challenges and, when they outlast your existing machine, they’ll easily transfer to your new model.”
