Sibom Heavy-Duty Skid Steer Agricultural Fork — Transforming CAT, Bobcat & Kubota Loaders into the Ultimate Farm-to-Job-Site Material Masters
The modern compact loader is already the hardest-working machine on most farms, ranches, job sites, nurseries and municipal yards. Yet its real earning power ignites only when the right attachment snaps onto the plate. That’s why Sibom engineers created the skid steer agricultural fork line: a family of high-strength, multi-purpose tools that merge the speed of a bucket, the bite of a grapple and the finesse of a pallet fork in one rugged frame. Whether you’re pairing the fork with a CAT® 262, a Bobcat® T770 or a Kubota® SVL97, you’ll tackle chores that used to require three machines—and you’ll finish before breakfast.
One Frame, Three Superpowers
At first glance the attachment looks like a sturdy agricultural fork attachment bristling with long, tapered cold-rolled steel tines. Lift the hydraulic lid, however, and you reveal a wide-opening skid steer grapple fork clamped by twin cylinders. Tilt forward and the same frame acts as a root rake, earning its nickname as a brush fork attachment. These three modes—fork, grapple, rake—flip with nothing more than joystick moves, turning a single tool into the most versatile farm fork you’ll own.
Fork mode
• Glide under round bales, stack square bales, lift nursery tote boxes or carry trash totes.
• Dock-scale strength comes from a reinforced frame fork skeleton gusseted top and bottom; no “banana bend” after years of haylage work.
Grapple mode
• Drop the twin arms and your skid steer combo fork grapple traps loose bedding, compost, prunings or storm debris with a bite wider than most bale spears are long.
• The lid rides on cushioned cylinders and protected hoses fork routing, so limbs never tear lines and durable couplers fork fittings stay clean.
Rake mode
• Curl the fork back and skim a paddock; wide tine spacing turns it into a rock rake fork grapple or a light-duty mulching rake for turf-top dress.
Three tools, one plate—that’s how Sibom defines “multi-functional fork grapple.”
Tines Ready for Everything from Bedding to Boulders
The business end lives in those heat-treated, steel tine fork attachment spears. Each tine is forged, machined, and then stress-relieved to shrug at torsion loads. Need tighter carrier coverage for fine compost? Choose the close tine spacing fork option. Hauling bulky green mulch that likes to sag? Add the tine guard fork that straddles every pair of spears, keeping bark or shavings from tumbling out. Bent a tooth after tackling demolition bricks? Spin out one bolt and slide in a replaceable tine fork; downtime stays under ten minutes.
Frames That Laugh at Heavy Days
Feedlot alleys, recycling yards and forestry slash piles aren’t gentle. Sibom cuts every fork carriage from ¼-inch plate, then adds web plates and corner straps that create a gusseted frame fork skeleton. The uprights key into the back rail like mortise-and-tenon carpentry, distributing shock so no single weld crack takes a tool out of service. That over-engineering produces a heavy duty skid steer fork comfortable lifting a cotton module in Texas or prying beet tops in Idaho.
Hydraulic Muscle You Can Trust
Twin cylinders crush waste into the fork cradle with confidence—no floppy single-arm compromises here. Nickel-plated pins spin inside grease-grooved bushings, earning the label dependable hydraulic fork. Two ½-inch supply lines finish in ISO flat-face tips, meaning the attachment is immediately at home on everything from a CAT high flow to a Bobcat standard flow. Once coupled, an orifice inside the manifold meters clamp speed; the lid drops smoothly instead of slamming, a hallmark of Sibom’s operator safe feed pusher philosophy carried into fork design.
Universal—or Euro—Your Call
North American loaders love the SSL pattern; European users demand Euro coupler; global fleets mix both. Sibom satisfies all with the universal mount ag fork (standard) or optional Euro mount fork attachment and global mount fork faces. Snap it on a Kubota today, a Merlo tomorrow—no adapter kits, no downtime.
From Dairy Barns to Highway Crews — One Fork Solves 50 Problems
-
Barn cleaning fork grips sloppy bedding, then sets large mats in the compost line.
-
Hay fork grapple skid steer hauls broken bales without dropping flakes.
-
Feedlot fork skid steer skims spoiled feed without digging concrete.
-
Storm debris fork pulls tangled branches or roofing out of ditches in one pass.
-
Demolition debris fork rakes drywall chunks while the grapple lid holds insulation.
-
Silage fork attachment moves loose corn silage and levels the face for safer defacing.
-
Wood chip fork skid steer loads boiler hoppers faster than a bucket (chips slide off tines).
-
Stone picking fork sifts rocks from topsoil, saving hours of hand labor.
-
Compost fork grapple flips windrows, aerating without over-turning and killing microbial heat.
-
Green waste fork at municipal recycling sorts brush from bagged leaves effortlessly.
-
Brush cleanup grapple trims orchard or vineyard rows and stacks prunings in one trip.
-
Snow cleanup fork doubles as a lightweight push blade; clamped lid keeps drift piles stable in wind.
That is why rental yards label it a professional grade ag fork; contractors call it profit.
Built to Live as Long as Your Loader
All finished in epoxy primer plus UV-stable topcoat, Sibom forks defy manure acids and sun fade. Cylinders mount below the grapple lid’s top edge, shielding rods from bale wrap wire, and pliable hose guards shrug at brush pinch. In short, it’s a durable feed pusher-inspired heritage baked into a fork. Grease zerks group in easy-reach lines; one walk-around service and done. That genuine low-maintenance pusher attachment ethic means more uptime, less shop time, and a higher return on every loader hour.
Real-Life ROI: What Users Report
-
A Wisconsin dairy shifted two feeder hands to other chores after the Sibom fork cut bunk cleanup time 40 percent.
-
A Florida landscape contractor lifted, shoved and raked 30 cubic yards of hurricane debris in under an hour—zero wheelbarrows, zero shredded tarps.
-
An Oregon vineyard clawed and loaded 600 yards of prunings into burn rows without clogging a single tine.
-
A Texas DOT crew installed erosion-control straw on a highway slope faster than any bucket they’d used, praising the erosion control straw fork edge guards that prevent bale net wrap from snagging.
Across industries the pattern repeats: lower labor, faster throughput, measurable profit.
Attach, bite, lift, repeat. With Sibom’s premium agricultural fork line, one grapple fork equals three old tools—saving labor, boosting throughput, and proving once again that the right attachment turns a compact loader into the most profitable machine on the property.
