49BX, Bracketed Hay Spike, 49″ x 1.75″, 3,500 Lb Capacity

Description

49BX

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

This model features a 1.75-inch diameter, 49-inch long hay spike paired with the 175BU heavy-duty bracket, supplied complete with two 58X3U U-bolts for mounting to standard 3″ × 3″ tubing. The bracketed configuration provides a secure, aligned connection that minimizes flex under load while allowing for straightforward installation on existing frames.

Rated at 3,500 lb. at a 30-inch load center, the 49BX bracketed hay spike is engineered to handle heavy bale loads with confidence. The tapered spear design allows for smooth penetration while reducing drag and unnecessary bale disturbance during lifting, transporting, stacking, or feeding operations.

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 maintain proper spear alignment, reducing wear on both the spike and the attachment over time.

Backed by a one-year warranty, the 49BX bracketed hay spike is an ideal choice for livestock operations, hay producers, and agricultural businesses seeking a rugged, dependable bale-handling solution.
Additional sizes are available, including 39″ versions (39SB and 39SB1).
