49BX Bracketed Hay Spike

The 49BX bracketed hay spike is a heavy-duty, bolt-on bale handling solution designed for large round and square hay bales in demanding agricultural and commercial environments. Built for strength and long-term reliability, this assembly combines a rigid mounting bracket with a high-capacity, heat-treated spear to deliver consistent performance under heavy loads.

This model features a 1.75-inch diameter, 49-inch long tapered hay spike paired with the 175BU heavy-duty bracket. The assembly is supplied complete with two 58X3U U-bolts for secure mounting to standard 3-inch by 3-inch tubing. The bracketed configuration maintains proper alignment and minimizes flex under load while allowing for straightforward installation on existing frames and attachments.

Bracketed Assembly and Heavy-Load Performance

Rated at 3,500 lb. at a 30-inch load center, the 49BX is engineered to handle heavy bale loads with confidence during lifting, transporting, stacking, and feeding operations. The tapered spear design promotes smooth penetration while reducing drag and unnecessary bale disturbance, improving efficiency during repeated handling cycles.

Manufactured from high-strength, heat-treated steel, both the bracket and spear are built to withstand repeated use in tough working conditions. The rigid bracket system helps keep the spear straight and properly supported, reducing long-term wear on both the spike and the attachment.

Additional sizes are available, including 39-inch versions such as the 39SB and 39SB1, allowing operators to select the configuration that best fits their application.
