Benefits

What Your Operation Gets Back

Grip Wrapped Conventional Bales With Care.

Contoured arms, designed to cradle conventional bales securely without high-pressure hot spots, tearing, or stretching film.

Total Operational Efficiency

Great visibility through the frame, equalized arm motion, and slim arm design allows for tight bale stacking and moving fast without risking bale integrity.

Long-Term Durability

Heavy-duty frame geometry, greaseable high tensile pins and 50mm pipe arms means years of reliable seasonal performance.

Customer story

Proven in the paddock

Hear from the cropping farmers who put Rata equipment to work every day.

“We do about 4,000 individual wrapped bales per year, so its important to us to have Rata softhands to handle them, as they are really reliable, they don't break & are definitely the best brand we've ever used!

Because we've found Rata gear to be so reliable we also have multiple sets of their Bale Forks & Versatile Grapples as well!”
