The heavy-duty bale clamp (BKZ) from Kemp is designed for lifting and moving bales. Thanks to its strong construction and high clamping force, the clamp is suitable for heavier wheel loaders, tractors and telehandlers. The bale clamp has a robust construction and is available in several versions.
Advantages
The BKZ is our heavy-duty bale clamp for very intensive use.
This bale clamp has a heavier-duty construction than the BK, BKS and BKC and is suitable for applications requiring high clamping forces. The BKZ is suitable for use with wheel loaders, telehandlers and tractors from approximately 120 hp.
Construction
The heavy-duty bale clamp (BKZ) features a very heavy-duty construction with clamping arms and four sliding box sections made from 8 mm thick steel, ensuring stable and reliable operation. The use of four sliding box sections allows the clamping arms to be kept narrow, making it easier to pick up and place bales from a stack.
A 20 mm reinforcement strip is welded into the corners of the clamping arms, providing additional strength and making the construction suitable for intensive use.
The clamping arms are bent from a single 76 × 7.1 mm tube, preventing weak points in the tube. The clamping arms have a height of approximately 480 mm, ensuring that the clamping force is distributed effectively across the bale. The working length of the clamping arms is 1,120 mm.
Plastic guides are fitted inside the sliding box sections. This reduces wear and makes the bale clamp low-maintenance in use.
The cylinders have dimensions of 35 × 60 × 800 / 900 mm and provide sufficient clamping force for handling bales.
The clamping arms are fully galvanised. The zinc coating protects the machine against corrosion, weather and dirt, ensuring a long service life.
The heavy-duty bale clamp has an empty weight of approximately 450 kg.
Versions
The heavy-duty bale clamp (BKZ) comes standard with a pilot-operated check valve and a removable frame for a second bale, allowing two bales to be transported at the same time.
The heavy-duty bale clamp (BKZ) is available in two types. The bale clamp comes standard with hoses and a male coupling. It is also supplied as standard with attachment hooks suitable for your vehicle.
