Benefits

What Your Operation Gets Back

Feed That Stays Good

A serrated knife edge seals the pit face clean, so secondary fermentation doesn't eat into stored feed.

Consistent, Pit After Pit

High-tensile steel keeps the cut clean load after load, not just the first time you use it.

Grip That Holds Still

Closely spaced tines keep silage secure while cutting, so the load doesn't shift mid-handle.

The details

What makes it work

  • 01

    Fast, Clean Cutting

    A serrated knife edge stays sharp longer and cuts quickly through dense stacks, leaving a sealed pit face that helps prevent secondary fermentation.
  • 02

    Handles Dense Material

    Large hydraulic rams, two on models under 2.1m and three on wider models, deliver the force to cut heavy grass silage and maize without stalling.
  • 03

    Reduced Feed Loss

    Side walls and closely spaced, cranked tines hold material securely in transit, so less feed is lost between the pit and the trough.
  • 04

    Rounded Grab Face

    A filled-in front and rounded grab face shape the cut and seal the stack face, protecting the feed left in the pit until you need it.
  • 05

    Heavy-Duty Build

    Heavy steel plate, bosses and reinforcement at pivots and stress points, with hoses routed clear of the work, built for repeated use in tough conditions.

Expert advice

Tips from the Rata team

  • The serrated knife edge is designed to keep the pit face sealed as you cut, so use it on every load, that's what keeps the rest of the stack fresh.

Customer story

Proven in the paddock

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

“I got hold of Rata when I needed a Silage Grab, Forks & Quick Hitch. From past experience I had been impressed with the durability & simplicity of the gear. The Silage Grab has performed very well & the Quick Hitch makes the job so much easier, this one is well up there! Very high rated - so I can virtually pick up any load.

They've definitely helped me out!”
