Not every product described as heavy duty is built from the same material.
A useful comparison starts with a named steel grade and continues through the attachment’s weight, hydraulics, reinforcement, and service points.
Ask three direct questions
What steel is used, where is it used, and why was it selected? Those answers reveal more than a generic claim about thickness or weight.
Key considerations
- Specific steel grade
- Working components made from that grade
- Strength relative to attachment weight
- Cylinder, hose, and fitting ratings
- Pins, bushings, and maintenance access
AR400F for impact and wear
ANBO uses USA-sourced AR400F in grapple tines because it balances abrasion resistance, toughness, formability, and weldability for demanding field work.
Require transparent specifications
A manufacturer that can explain the material and design choices gives the buyer a stronger basis for judging long-term value.
Put the right attachment on your machine.
