📘 Overview
The ANBO GR160HC-8 is a skid steer grapple rake built for tractors, wheel loaders and large skid steers up to 160 horsepower, supplied in 4 widths from 79" to 104" on 8-inch tine spacing. 8-inch spacing is the middle spacing in this series — it sheds loose dirt on the lift while still holding logs and heavy brush, which makes the GR160HC-8 the choice for brush piling, log handling and land clearing where dirt-free loads matter. As a High Capacity unit the GR160HC-8 runs longer bottom tines and a larger closed volume than the standard GR160, so each pass carries more material without moving up a machine class. The choice you make on this listing is width — 79", 87", 96", 104" — and it drives attachment weight from 1,139 lb up to 1,424 lb, so pick the widest unit your loader can still lift full. Every ANBO high capacity grapple is built in Colville, Washington from American AR400F steel, ships with a mount fabricated for your own machine plus hoses and couplers, and carries a two-year attachment warranty with three years on the cylinders.
⚙ GR160HC-8 Key Features
- Rated to 160 horsepower — ANBO sizes each model to the machine, so the GR160HC-8 is matched to loaders and tractors up to 160 hp rather than sold by width alone.
- 8-inch tine spacing — sheds loose dirt on the lift while still holding logs and heavy brush.
- 3/4" : 5/8" AR400F tines — outer to inner tine thickness on the GR160HC-8, in steel with a 150,000–180,000 PSI yield strength against 32,000 PSI for A36.
- 57" grapple opening — the jaw span of the GR160HC-8 when the clamshell is open.
- 3"x 10" hydraulic cylinders — fully welded, rear mounted and rated to 3,000 PSI, with a built-in pressure relief valve on the larger units to protect the machine's hydraulics.
- Clamshell design with a top grapple — the top bar closes over raked material, so the unit rakes, digs, grips and back-rakes without an attachment change.
- Greaseable, accessible pivot points — every pivot takes grease and can be reached without dismantling the rake.
- 2-wire R-16 hoses rated to 5,800 PSI — routed securely, with hose wrap offered to protect the supply lines.
- Two-piece mount, engineered position — most ANBO mounts are two-piece, keeping the centre of the rake open for visibility; mount location and angle are set to work on both tractors and skid steers.
- Longer bottom tines and a wider opening — the High Capacity frame holds more material when closed than the standard GR160 at the same horsepower rating.
- Made in the USA from American steel — designed, fabricated and assembled in Colville, Washington.
🔑 Why Buyers Choose the GR160HC-8
- An 1,139 lb attachment on a 160 hp machine leaves lift capacity for the load — AR400F is five times stronger than grade 36, so ANBO reaches the required strength without the extra plate thickness that a mild-steel grapple needs. The 79" GR160HC-8 weighs 1,139 lb; the weight you do not spend on the attachment is weight you can still pick up.
- 8-inch spacing decides what stays in the load — on the GR160HC-8 it sheds loose dirt on the lift while still holding logs and heavy brush, which is why this spacing is the one to pick for brush piling, log handling and land clearing where dirt-free loads matter.
- The top grapple lets you back-rake and carry in the same pass — material raked up is clamped and moved without swapping to a bucket, which removes a machine trip per pile.
- Greaseable pivots instead of sealed or welded ones — the wear points on the GR160HC-8 can be serviced on schedule, which is what decides whether a grapple lasts a season or a decade.
- Three years on the cylinders, one more than on the attachment — ANBO warrants the highest-wear hydraulic component for longer than it warrants the frame.
- More material per cycle at the same horsepower — the High Capacity frame carries a bigger closed volume than the standard GR160, so a forestry or production clearing job takes fewer trips without stepping up to a larger machine.

🔄 GR160HC-8 Specifications by Width
The GR160HC-8 spans 79" to 104" and 1,139 lb to 1,424 lb across 4 part numbers. Every one shares the same 8" tine spacing, the same 57" opening and the same 3"x 10" cylinders.
| Part number | Width | Attachment weight | Cylinders |
|---|---|---|---|
| GR160HC-8-79 | 79" | 1,139 lb | 3"x 10" |
| GR160HC-8-87 | 87" | 1,187 lb | 3"x 10" |
| GR160HC-8-96 | 96" | 1,330 lb | 3"x 10" |

📋 Choosing Your GR160HC-8 Width
This listing covers the GR160HC-8 — tine spacing is fixed at 8" Tines across every part number on the page. The width option is the selection you make at checkout:
- 79" — part number GR160HC-8-79, 1,139 lb attachment weight
- 87" — part number GR160HC-8-87, 1,187 lb attachment weight
- 96" — part number GR160HC-8-96, 1,330 lb attachment weight
- 104" — part number GR160HC-8-104, 1,424 lb attachment weight
A wider GR160HC-8 covers more ground per pass but adds 285 lb between the narrowest and widest unit. Match the width to what your loader can lift full, not to the widest unit offered.
🔗 What Is the ANBO GR160HC-8 Used For?
ANBO builds the High Capacity Grapple Rake line for brush piling, log handling and land clearing where dirt-free loads matter. On the GR160HC-8 specifically, the jobs it is bought for are:
- Forestry cleanup and slash handling
- Large brush piles
- Moving more material per pass
- Stump and root removal
- Production-rate land clearing
The GR160HC-8 ships complete and ready to run — the grapple, the mount built for your machine, hoses and couplers.
Buyers shop this class of attachment under several names. ANBO grapple and skid steer rock rake both describe what the GR160HC-8 is — a clamshell rake that grips. If your search started with root rake grapple, root grapples or compact tractor grapple, the GR160HC-8 is the 160-horsepower unit in that family.
🚜 Which Machines Fit the ANBO GR160HC-8?
The ANBO GR160HC-8 is built to order with a mount made for your specific machine. It is not a fixed-interface attachment: ANBO fabricates the mount to the loader, tractor or skid steer you name when you order, so fitment is confirmed at build time rather than assumed from a standard.
| Fitment factor | ANBO GR160HC-8 |
|---|---|
| Machine horsepower | Up to 160 hp — this is the primary fitment limit on the GR160HC-8 |
| Machine types | Tractors, wheel loaders and large skid steers up to 160 horsepower |
| Grapple opening | 57" — the largest single piece the GR160HC-8 will close on |
| Mount | Custom-built to your machine. Universal skid steer quick attach and John Deere are the common options; ANBO builds most other mounts as well |
| Mount construction | Two-piece on most units, which keeps the centre of the rake open for visibility. Build-backs reduce lift capacity and are only used where a machine requires one |
| Hydraulics required | One double-acting auxiliary hydraulic circuit to open and close the grapple. Cylinders are rated to 3,000 PSI |
| Supplied with | Mount, hoses and couplers |
Horsepower is the deciding number, not width: ANBO names each model for the machine size it is built for, and running a 160-hp-rated grapple behind a bigger machine is what bends attachments. Have your machine make, model and horsepower ready and call eskidsteer.com at (866) 757-8337 to confirm the mount before ordering.
❓ ANBO GR160HC-8 Questions, Answered
What size machine does the ANBO GR160HC-8 fit?
The ANBO GR160HC-8 is rated for tractors, wheel loaders and large skid steers up to 160 horsepower. ANBO names each model for the machine size it is built for, so a 160-hp rating is a ceiling rather than a suggestion: putting a larger machine behind the GR160HC-8 is the most common way a grapple gets bent.
Which width of the GR160HC-8 should I order?
The GR160HC-8 comes in 4 widths from 79" to 104". Attachment weight runs from 1,139 lb at 79" to 1,424 lb at 104", so the limit is what your loader can still lift once the grapple is full. A wider unit clears more ground per pass; a narrower one leaves more of your rated capacity for the load.
Why does the GR160HC-8 use 8-inch tine spacing?
8-inch spacing is the middle spacing. On the GR160HC-8 it sheds loose dirt on the lift while still holding logs and heavy brush. That is what makes this the right unit for brush piling, log handling and land clearing where dirt-free loads matter — spacing decides what stays in the load and what falls back on the ground.
What hydraulics does the ANBO GR160HC-8 need?
The GR160HC-8 needs one double-acting auxiliary hydraulic circuit to open and close the clamshell. The cylinders are fully welded, rear mounted and rated to 3,000 PSI, and the hoses are 2-wire R-16 rated to 5,800 PSI. The larger ANBO units include a built-in pressure relief valve to protect your machine's hydraulic system.
Does the GR160HC-8 come with a mount for my machine?
Yes. ANBO builds the mount for the specific machine you name at order time and the GR160HC-8 ships complete with mount, hoses and couplers. Most ANBO mounts are two-piece, which keeps the centre of the rake open so you can see the load. Have your machine make, model and horsepower ready and call eskidsteer.com at (866) 757-8337 before ordering.
What is AR400F steel, and why does ANBO use it?
AR400F is an abrasion-resistant alloy with a yield strength of 150,000–180,000 PSI against 32,000 PSI for A36 mild steel — roughly five times stronger. The F is for formability: it is less brittle than standard AR400, so it bends rather than cracking under shock load. Because the steel is stronger, the GR160HC-8 does not need the extra plate thickness a mild-steel grapple uses, and the weight saved stays available as lift capacity.
What warranty comes with the ANBO GR160HC-8?
ANBO provides a two-year manufacturer defect warranty on the attachment from the date of delivery to the original purchaser, and three years on the cylinders. The warranty does not cover use beyond rated capacity, misuse, unauthorised modification, or normal wear on ground-engaging tines. For a warranty question on a GR160HC-8 bought from us, call eskidsteer.com at (866) 757-8337.
What servicing does the GR160HC-8 need?
Grease every pivot point on schedule — ANBO makes all pivots greaseable and accessible on the GR160HC-8 so this can be done without dismantling the rake. Check the hose routing and the hose wrap for abrasion, and inspect the tines for wear. Tines are ground-engaging parts and wear is not a warranty item.
Should I get the 8" GR160HC or a wider tine spacing?
eskidsteer.com stocks the GR160HC in 8" as well as 6", 12". The 8" GR160HC-8 sheds loose dirt on the lift while still holding logs and heavy brush. A wider spacing sheds more soil and fines, which is what you want when you are moving timber and brush rather than picking rock. Spacing does not change the machine rating — every GR160HC is built for machines up to 160 horsepower.
What is the difference between the GR160HC-8 and the standard GR160-8?
The GR160HC-8 is the High Capacity version. It uses longer bottom tines and holds a larger volume when closed, with a wider opening than the standard unit, so it moves more material per pass at the same 160 hp machine rating. The standard GR160-8 is the better pick if you are raking and digging more than you are carrying volume.
How big a piece can the GR160HC-8 pick up?
The GR160HC-8 has a 57" grapple opening, which is the largest single piece the clamshell will close on. Anything larger has to be cut or handled in the rake rather than gripped.
Is ANBO grapple the same thing as the GR160HC-8 grapple rake?
ANBO grapple and skid steer rock rake are two names for the class of attachment the GR160HC-8 belongs to — a loader-mounted clamshell that rakes and grips. ANBO calls the GR160HC-8 a grapple rake because the lower tines rake and dig while the top grapple closes over the load. If your search started with root rake grapple or root grapples, the GR160HC-8 is the 160-horsepower unit in that family.
How is the ANBO GR160HC-8 shipped and how much is freight?
The GR160HC-8 ships by LTL freight. Shipping is calculated at checkout — add the width you want to your cart, enter your delivery address, and the shipping charge is shown before you complete the order. Lift gate service is available for residential deliveries and can be selected at checkout.
