Heavy Duty Solid Steel 28" 4 Claw Log Grabber Tongs (44-026)

Quad-Claw Design • 4"–28" Opening Range • 3,000 lb. Capacity • Heavy-Duty Carbon Steel

Move, lift, and skid heavy logs with the 44-026 4-Claw Log Grabber Tongs. Built from heavy-duty 1-inch-diameter carbon steel, these rugged timber tongs provide a strong, stable grip for handling both large and small logs.

The four angled gripping prongs dig deeper into the wood as pulling force increases. The harder the tongs are pulled, the tighter they grip, helping maintain a secure hold during lifting, dragging, and skidding operations.

A heavy-duty tow ring makes it easy to connect the tongs to a compatible towing chain for use with a truck, ATV, tractor, skidder, or other suitable equipment.

Quick Specifications

Important Operating Information

Always verify that the towing chain, hooks, connectors, and pulling equipment are rated for the intended load. The 3,000 lb. tong capacity does not increase the capacity of any other component in the towing or lifting system.

Confirm that all four claws are securely engaged before applying force. Keep people clear of the log, chain, tongs, and pulling path during use. Do not exceed the rated capacity.
