The HCN BM44 Lifting hook is a industrial & material handling designed for installation on Wheel Loaders. It is manufactured at HCN Attachments' ISO 9001:2015-certified facility in Xuzhou, China, and supplied to contractors, rental fleets, OEM partners, and equipment distributors in more than 60 countries. When sourcing hydraulic grapple, material handling attachment, industrial forklift attachment, rotating grapple, bale handler, warehouse attachment for export or fleet replacement, verify carrier weight class, hydraulic output, and mounting interface before order confirmation — HCN provides free compatibility checks on request.
HCN industrial attachments — hydraulic clamps, rotating grapples, bale handlers, container spreaders, and drum handlers — extend the capability of forklifts, reach stackers, wheel loaders, and telehandlers for efficient material handling in warehouses, ports, recycling facilities, and manufacturing logistics operations.
Available model designations: BM4450. Specification values in the table below apply to the listed model range. If your carrier falls outside the published weight class, contact HCN engineering with the machine make, model, operating weight, and pin-to-pin dimensions — custom bracket fabrication is typically available within 15–30 working days.
HCN BM44 Lifting hook units leave factory with CE conformity documentation, operator manual, and QC records. Standard in-stock configurations ship within 7–15 working days; custom specifications require 15–30 working days. Export terms are quoted FOB Qingdao or Shanghai unless otherwise agreed. Submit an RFQ with your machine model, working conditions, and destination country for pricing, lead time, and bracket fit confirmation.
The BM44 Lifting hook is specified on the following project types. Each application below reflects real field use — not generic marketing claims.
On this type of project, the BM44 Lifting hook reduces cycle time compared with manual methods by allowing the operator to work from the carrier cab. Scrap metal sorting and loading at recycling depots using sorting and orange-peel grapples
On this type of project, the BM44 Lifting hook reduces cycle time compared with manual methods by allowing the operator to work from the carrier cab. Log and timber handling at sawmills and wood processing facilities
On this type of project, the BM44 Lifting hook reduces cycle time compared with manual methods by allowing the operator to work from the carrier cab. Bale handling for hay, straw, silage, and industrial waste bales
On this type of project, the BM44 Lifting hook reduces cycle time compared with manual methods by allowing the operator to work from the carrier cab. Container stuffing and yard stacking at port terminals and intermodal facilities
On this type of project, the BM44 Lifting hook reduces cycle time compared with manual methods by allowing the operator to work from the carrier cab. Bulk material transfer in industrial plants using clamshell and orange-peel buckets

Grapple jaw geometry determines material retention and sorting efficiency. Match the jaw type to your primary material class.
| Selection Criteria | Sorting Grapple (Multi-Tine) | Orange-Peel Grapple |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw design | Independent tines — conforms to irregular shapes | Curved shells — high volume bulk grab |
| Best application | Demolition sorting, scrap metal, mixed debris | Bulk loading, logs, aggregate, port cargo |
| Material retention | High clamp force on irregular pieces | Maximum volume per cycle |
| Procurement note | Preferred for recycling and demolition yards | Preferred for port and bulk transfer |
Hook and sling methods suit regular-shaped loads. Rotating grapples are specified for irregular scrap, demolition debris, and log sorting where sling rigging slows cycle time.
| Method | Manual / Conventional Approach | HCN Attachment |
|---|---|---|
| Typical use | Hook, chain, or sling rigging — requires ground crew, slow on irregular shapes, repositioning carrier for placement | 360° hydraulic rotating grapple — grips irregular loads, precise placement without carrier repositioning |
| When to specify | Specify a rotating grapple when load shape variability exceeds 50% of cycles or ground crew rigging time exceeds 30 seconds per pick | |
When reviewing Industrial & Material Handling for a purchase decision, these parameters determine whether the unit will perform on your site:
The HCN BM44 Lifting hook is engineered for Wheel Loaders within HCN's rated weight and hydraulic output range. Send your exact carrier make, model, and pin-to-pin dimensions for a free compatibility confirmation before order placement. OEM-fit brackets are available for Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, Volvo, Doosan, Bobcat, and 30+ brands.
A rotating grapple (also called a hydraulic grapple or material handling grapple) is an attachment for excavators and wheel loaders that uses hydraulically powered jaws to grip and pick up irregular material. The rotation function — typically a continuous 360° hydraulic motor-driven system — lets the operator position material precisely without moving the carrier, improving productivity in scrap handling, log sorting, and demolition applications.
Yes. HCN demolition and scrap-handling grapples feature multi-tine jaw designs that conform to irregular material shapes — car bodies, rebar bundles, pipe sections, and mixed demolition debris. The wide jaw opening and high clamping force prevent dropping loose material during transport.
