84CS – Cross Bolt Cotton Stab

The 84CS Cross Bolt Cotton Stab is a heavy-duty cotton bale spear engineered for secure, controlled handling in demanding agricultural and industrial cotton operations. Measuring 84 inches in length with a 2-inch diameter, this cotton stab provides the reach, strength, and stability required for handling large round cotton bales in cotton yards, gins, and field environments.

Designed to deliver dependable penetration and consistent load control, the 84CS is well suited for operators who require reliable, repeatable performance when lifting and transporting dense cotton bales. Its robust construction supports long service life under repeated heavy-use conditions.

Cotton Bale Spear Design and Performance

The 84CS cotton stab is built specifically for cotton handling applications, where controlled penetration and secure holding power are critical. Its heavy-duty steel construction allows the spear to penetrate large cotton bales effectively while maintaining stability during lifting, transport, and placement.

With an 84-inch length, this cotton stab provides ample reach for proper bale engagement, while the 2-inch diameter delivers the rigidity needed to resist bending under load. This balance of reach and strength makes the 84CS a dependable choice for professional cotton handling equipment used in high-volume operations.

Cross Bolt Mounting, Capacity, and Applications

This cotton stab features a cross bolt mounting design, ensuring secure retention within the mounting hardware during operation. The cross bolt system minimizes movement and rotation, improving safety and maintaining consistent alignment under load. The 84CS is designed to retrofit into 2.25-inch diameter hardware when used with the 255 bushing, providing flexibility for operators upgrading or adapting existing cotton handling frames.

The 84CS is rated at 1,600 pounds at a 48-inch load center, reflecting real-world cotton handling conditions. For proper load distribution, improved stability, and reduced stress on equipment, a minimum of four cotton stabs per bale is recommended per application. This configuration helps evenly distribute the load and supports safer, more predictable lifting performance.

Built for durability and dependable operation, the 84CS cross bolt cotton stab is compatible with cotton handling frames, cotton loaders, and specialty bale-moving equipment where secure, repeatable lifting is required.

The 84CS is backed by a limited one-year warranty against manufacturing defects, providing confidence in durability, workmanship, and long-term performance.
