RBC Cotton Wool Paper Bundle Clamp Forklift Attachment Bale Clamp

Forklift Bale Clamp — Cotton, Wool, Paper Bundle Attachment

The forklift bale clamp is a hydraulic clamp attachment designed specifically for handling baled materials — cotton bales, wool bales, waste paper bundles, and recycled fiber bales — using two hydraulically-actuated clamp arms that close inward to grip the bale from the sides. Unlike forks that require pallets and can only lift from below, the forklift bale clamp grips the bale directly, enabling faster loading and unloading of baled materials in textile mills, recycling plants, and paper mills. A leaking clamp cylinder, worn arm pivot bearings, or damaged clamp pads on a forklift bale clamp causes uneven clamping force, bale slippage during transport, and potential load drop — a serious safety hazard when handling heavy bales at height.

Manufactured with heavy-duty welded arm assemblies, integrated double-acting hydraulic cylinders, and replaceable clamp pads, this forklift bale clamp is the RBC-type specification for cotton, wool, and paper bundle handling. For attachment components, browse our relevant attachment parts.
