The standard bale clamp (BKS) from Kemp is designed for lifting and moving bales. Both rectangular and round bales can be clamped easily and securely. The bale clamp has a robust construction, is available in several versions and is suitable for daily use.
Advantages
The BKS is referred to by us as the standard bale clamp.
The BKS is heavier-duty than the BK, but lighter than the BKC and BKZ. For very intensive use, a BKC or BKZ is recommended, while the BKS is suitable for normal daily use.
The BKS is suitable for use with wheel loaders, telehandlers and tractors up to approximately 120 hp.
Construction
The standard bale clamp (BKS) features a robust 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.
The clamping arms are bent from a single piece of Ø76 × 6.3 mm tube. The height of the clamping arms is approximately 370 mm. The working length of the clamping arms is 1,120 mm.
The cylinders have dimensions of 25 × 50 × 750 / 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 standard bale clamp has an empty weight of approximately 320 kg.
Versions
The standard bale clamp (BKS) is available in several 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.
