Virnig V50 STG84 Skeleton Tine Grapple for Skid Steers
Overview
The Virnig V50 STG84 is an 86-inch overall width skeleton tine grapple — the second-widest model in Virnig's V50 series. It's designed for skid steers and compact track loaders with a minimum 1,500 lb loader capacity. The 86-inch width covers more debris area per grab than the STG72 or STG78 models, useful for Canadian land clearing operations handling large brush piles and log debris. Dual serrated tines with a 9.3-inch gap handle bulk material efficiently.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You handle large boulders, rip-rap, or irregular rock that a bucket can't safely grip
- You work in quarrying, shoreline work, or heavy land clearing
⛔ Skip if…
- Your rock is small and uniform — a rock bucket moves volume faster
- You need to sort debris — a grapple with fingers works better for mixed piles
🔍 Also consider…
- Industrial grapple for mixed debris with some rock
- Rock bucket if you're loading and moving more than sorting
Wide attachment — verify your machine's rated operating capacity (ROC) before ordering. Best suited to large-frame machines (S750+ class or equivalent CTL).
