Ports/Stevedoring

Ports and Stevedores rely on grabs for material handling of Breakbulk cargo for the loading and unloading of ships. The most efficient types of grabs for these operations are Radio Controlled Single Line grabs, and Diesel Hydraulic Grapples and Buckets.

Dredging

Mechanical dredging using clamshell buckets is one of the most widely used, versatile, and cost effective methods in use today.  Our round nose clamshell buckets are known industry wide to some of the most durable and efficient on the market.  In addition to our round nose buckets, we offer a full line of level cut environmental buckets for jobs that require that level of precision.

Repairs/Rebuilds

When a bucket or grapple wears out, it is often cost effective to do a rebuild on the equipment rather than replacing the grab. Anvil offers certified, warrantied rebuilds of buckets and grapples. This includes grabs that fall under our portfolio of brands and grabs originally built by other manufacturers.
