OVERVIEW
When you're working a busy farm or ranch, efficiency and reliability aren’t optional — they’re essential. The Haugen Square Bale Spear is built with exactly that in mind: a heavy-duty, skid steer compatible attachment engineered to handle large square hay bales with strength, stability, and ease. Whether you're feeding livestock, loading hay onto trailers, stacking bales in barns, or organizing storage, this attachment gives you the power and control required to get the job done fast and safely.
Built for Durability and Farm-Scale Use
At the core of this bale spear is a reinforced heavy-duty steel frame — robust enough for daily barn and field work. The frame supports multiple tines and heavy loads, designed to withstand the wear and tear of farm life.
You get two tine configurations depending on your preference and workload:
-
Cold-Rolled Tines — three 1 ¾″ diameter cold rolled steel tines with 29″ usable length for standard square bales.
-
Forged Tines Option — three Conus-style forged tines (e.g. 32.5″ total tine length, 28–34″ usable) for heavier-duty work or larger bales.
All tines are fully replaceable — a smart long-term design choice that reduces maintenance costs and prevents downtime.
Efficient Square Bale Handling for Skid Steers
Unlike round bale spears that use a single long spike, the triple-tine design offers superior stability and load distribution when handling square hay bales. This reduces bale shifting or tipping during transport — especially useful when stacking multiple bales or loading onto trailers.
The design is optimized for skid steer loaders: a universal quick-attach mounting system makes it compatible with many skid steer brands and models. This ensures fast attachment changes — saving you time and allowing you to switch between tasks easily.
Additionally, the integrated built-in operator step offers a small but important ergonomic benefit — providing easier and safer entry/exit for the operator, especially under muddy, wet, or snowy conditions.
Replaceable, Maintainable, Long-Lasting
Farming gear takes a beating. That’s why the replaceable tine design is such a big advantage. Rather than replacing an entire attachment if a tine wears out or bends, you can simply swap out the damaged tine — an efficient, cost-saving, maintenance-friendly solution.
The solid steel frame and quality construction also mean this spear will handle frequent use with minimal wear. Combined with durable tines (cold-rolled or forged), the unit is ready for years of heavy-duty bale handling without premature failure.
Versatile Use — From Farm to Ranch, Storage to Transport
The Haugen Square Bale Spear is ideal for multiple applications:
-
Feeding livestock (cattle, horses, dairy operations)
-
Loading hay trailers or wagons
-
Stacking bales in barns or storage sheds
-
Transporting large square bales from field to barn
-
Organizing hay for feeding season or bedding operations
Whether you’re managing a small horse farm or a large-scale cattle ranch, the versatility and reliability of this spear make it a valuable addition to your equipment fleet.
Designed for Safety, Stability & Performance
Safety and stability are key — the triple tine design distributes weight evenly, reducing the risk of bale slip or shift. The heavy-duty frame reduces structural stress. Replaceable tines ensure that any wear issues can be addressed quickly. The built-in step helps prevent slips when entering/exiting your skid steer. All together, the design helps deliver safer, more controlled bale handling — essential when dealing with heavy, awkward square bales.
