Unlocking Maximum Versatility on the Job with the Probst FTZ‑MULTI‑15 Grab

At Delta Equipment, we’re constantly committed to delivering attachments that bring flexibility, reliability and productivity to your job site. That’s why we’re excited to spotlight the Probst FTZ-MULTI-15 Grab, an innovative, modular handling solution that makes light work of heavy materials.

What makes the Probst FTZ-MULTI-15 Grab different?

The FTZ-MULTI-15 is not your standard lifting clamp. Built by Probst in Germany, this “modular grab” is designed to adapt to a wide array of precast concrete and natural stone elements, thanks to its interchangeable gripper system.

Here’s what that means for you:

• Exceptional versatility – The base unit can be fitted with different grippers
  • 1200mm wide rubber grippers for moving long blocks and multiple blocks at once,
  • 420mm wide rubber grippers for moving sandstone and precast concrete blocks,
  • Steel finger grippers for moving roughly cut rocks and boulders, so you’re not locked into one job type.
• Broader gripping range – With the right grippers installed, you can tackle standard concrete elements, kerbs, large blocks, natural stone, even roughly cut rocks.
• Built for longevity – The entire unit is galvanised for durable surface protection, helping it withstand the tough environments on construction and civil sites.
• Cost-effective modularity – Because you can reuse the base unit and swap in grippers as needed, you reduce overall capital investment while increasing application flexibility.

 

Real-world impact on your operations

Imagine you’re running a civil site where you need to move kerb blocks in the morning, then later handle larger architectural stone blocks. Instead of two separate specialist grabs, the FTZ-MULTI-15 lets you swap grippers and adapt the machine to both tasks. That means less downtime, less gear to store, and fewer attachments cluttering your yard.

For operators working with excavators or loaders, this adaptability translates to smoother workflows. On tight timeframes or mixed projects, the ability to switch modes quickly keeps productivity high and materials handling safe and efficient.

 

Safety and best-practice highlights

• As with all lifting gear, ensure the correct gripper variant is installed and the gripping range is properly adjusted for the load.
• Only qualified personnel should operate the grab and perform adjustments or maintenance. The manual emphasises that unapproved modifications or use outside the manufacturer’s guidelines pose serious risk.
• Regular servicing and visual inspection of the grippers, chains and mounting points prolong lifespan and reduce unexpected downtime. The galvanised finish helps, but mechanical wear is still a factor.
