Clamshell Grabs – Perfect for Bulk Material & Port Handling

Clamshell grabs are essential tools for handling loose bulk materials in port operations, dredging, and industrial storage sites. Their versatile design allows for quick loading and unloading of heavy, granular, or soft materials — making them an industry standard for efficiency and reliability.

What is a Clamshell Grab?

A clamshell grab (or clamshell bucket) consists of two scooping jaws that open and close like a clam. These grabs are typically used on excavators, cranes, or material handlers to pick up and move loose material.

Commonly handled materials:

Sand, gravel, coal
Grain and fertilizers
Dredged sludge and mud
Bulk cargo at ports
