Skid Steer Large Square Bale Spears - CONUS Tines - Haugen Attachments

📘 Overview

Haugen's large square bale spears with forged Conus tines cover three configurations: MLSBS-C2 (four 39" Conus 2 tines, 66" frame, 245 lbs), MLSBS-HB (same tines with extra-heavy high-back extensions, 90" tall, 66" frame, 700 lbs), and MDBS-C49 (four 49" Conus 49 tines, 87" wide frame for moving two round bales simultaneously). All feature German-made forged Conus tines, 15-degree back angle, replaceable tines, and Universal Quick Attach. The large square bale spear conus tine series is designed for the heaviest bale handling demands. Made in USA.

🔑 Benefits

• Forged Conus tines are the premium standard in agricultural bale handling — Conus tines are German-engineered forged bale spear tines used by agricultural OEMs globally. Forging aligns the steel's grain structure along the tine's stress axis, providing superior fatigue strength compared to machined or cast tines of the same diameter. The tapered Conus profile allows easier bale penetration while the forged construction provides the strength needed for heavy commercial bale stacking.
• MLSBS-HB 90" high-back prevents top-stack bales from rolling over the frame — when stacking large square bales to height (3+ bales high), the bale weight and momentum during forward travel creates a risk of the top bale rolling over the spear frame. The 90" high-back extension prevents this, enabling stable high-stack bale transport on farms where 3-4 high bale handling is routine.
• MDBS-C49 with 87" frame and 49" tines enables double-round bale handling — the MDBS-C49's 87" frame width and four 49" Conus 49 tines are configured to simultaneously spear and carry two large round bales side-by-side. This halves the number of trips needed to move a field of round bales, directly cutting bale-handling time and fuel cost on large hay operations.
• Replaceable Conus tines maintain consistent performance throughout the attachment's life — all Conus tines are standardized and replaceable. When a tine is damaged or worn, it can be swapped individually without replacing the frame. Replacement Conus tines are widely available from agricultural dealers.

📊 Specifications

🔗 Attachment Compatibility

Universal Quick Attach. The MLSBS-HB at 700 lbs and MDBS-C49 handling two full bales (potentially 1,200–2,400 lbs of bale load) require a high-capacity skid steer. Verify your machine's rated operating capacity at the applicable load center before stacking or carrying double loads.

🚜 Machine Compatibility

Compatible with skid steer loaders and compact track loaders with Universal Quick Attach:

Requires two auxiliary hydraulic circuits (independent grapple arms). Check your machine's rated operating capacity against attachment weight before operating.
