48BX, 48″ Bracketed Bale Spear, 1.625″ Diameter

Description

48BX

The 48BX bracketed bale spear is designed for dependable handling of heavy round and square hay bales when mounted to attachments with standard 3″ × 3″ tubing. Built around a rigid bolt-on bracket system, this spear provides improved strength, alignment, and service life compared to traditional slip-in bale spears.

This 48-inch bale spear features a 1.625-inch diameter and is paired with the 155BU heavy-duty bolt-on bracket, supplied complete with two 58X3U U-bolts for secure mounting to 3″ × 3″ tubing. The bracketed design holds the spear firmly in position, reducing flex under load while allowing for quick installation or replacement as needed.

Rated at 3,000 lb. at a 30-inch load center, the 48BX bracketed bale spear maintains consistent alignment during repeated lifting cycles. The housing bracket helps keep the spear straight, reducing unnecessary stress on both the spear and the attachment and minimizing long-term wear.

Manufactured from heat-treated, high-strength steel, the 48BX offers reliable penetration and balanced stability when lifting, transporting, or stacking hay. The 48-inch length provides controlled reach and dependable performance for everyday bale-handling operations.

For operators looking to upgrade or maintain their bale-handling setup, the 48BX bracketed bale spear delivers a durable, adaptable solution built for demanding agricultural use.
