{"product_id":"star-industries-170-72-heavy-duty-root-grapple-bucket","title":"Star Industries 170-72 Heavy Duty Root Grapple Bucket","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Star Industries 170-72 Heavy Duty Root Grapple Bucket delivers the extra width and capacity serious operators need when tackling large-scale land clearing, demolition clean-up, and heavy debris handling. At 72\" wide with a 17.2 cuft grapple capacity, the 170-72 moves more material per cycle than the 66\" model — reducing passes, cutting cycle times, and boosting overall productivity on wide-area job sites. The separated bottom tine design allows dirt and fines to sift out naturally during loading, so you're picking up and moving exactly what you need without carting excess soil along with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eConstructed with ½\" plate steel sides and ½\" thick grapple and tine assemblies, the 170-72 is built to absorb the punishment of daily heavy-duty use across construction, agricultural, and demolition environments. The integrated covers protect hydraulic fittings and cylinders from rocks, stumps, and debris impact, while the protective tubes around the grease zerks ensure fast, reliable lubrication in the field without risk of damage to the service points. With HD welded hydraulic cylinders measuring 2\" × 10\" × 1½\" and flat-faced couplers included, this grapple is ready to deliver consistent, powerful clamping force straight out of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFor the most demanding applications, the 170-72 is available in a Demolition Grade configuration, specifically recommended for track-style skid steers and machines rated at 70 HP or 3,500 lbs. capacity or greater. An optional set of intermediate bottom tines further reduces tine spacing to approximately 4\" for tighter material control when handling smaller debris or mixed loads. Proudly made or assembled in the USA by Star Industries, a trusted manufacturer of heavy equipment attachments since 1982.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eFeatures \u0026amp;
