Additional features & specifications

Advantages of the Quick Release Link
  • The Nemag Quick Release Link is fitted to Nemag grabs as standard, and is in addition also suitable for grabs from other manufacturers. 

  • The ingenious locking system has been balanced and perfected to become the most reliable, quickest and safest coupling method for ropes and chains.

  • It contributes to the efficiency of bulk handling, because the grabs can be changed in no time using the Nemag Quick Release Link and Rope Pear Socket. This guarantees optimal productivity of the crane. (4-rope grabs for a 40 ton crane can, for example, be changed in 10 minutes by one person).

  • The contact surfaces of the C-section have been hardened, which considerably lengthens the life span.

  • The Nemag Quick Release Link stands out because of its great userfriendliness and extremely quick functioning.

  • The quality and safe functioning of the Nemag Quick Release Link is checked continuously through internal procedures.
Quality Assurance

Built to perform
Proven before it ships

Engineered. Tested. Documented. Every grab is verified against documented standards before it leaves our workshop. From simulation and material selection to final inspection, performance is validated before it reaches your terminal.

Productivity_Innovation_1260x1080_rightcrop

Designed for heavy duty, verified in simulation

Before production begins, geometry, load paths, and structural behavior are analyzed using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Critical wear zones are reinforced and material choices are validated to ensure durability in demanding bulk applications.

Product-Feature-Placeholder-05-1

Everything quality build – all the way from plate to paint

From CNC-cut plates to qualified welding and final assembly, each grab is produced under documented procedures. Material traceability and in-process checks ensure consistent build quality at every stage.

Product-Feature-Placeholder-06-1

Inspected and documented before it ships

Every grab undergoes a structured 60-point inspection during manufacturing and final acceptance testing. Dimensions, weld quality, and functional performance are verified and recorded before shipment.

Lifecycle support from day one

A grab is a complex piece of equipment that cannot simply be sent back to the factory when questions arise. That is why Nemag supports customers on-site and remotely with practical guidance, troubleshooting, and operator training.

From start-up and commissioning to performance optimization and wear assessment, our engineers help ensure your grab operates as intended in real-world conditions.

Frequently asked questions about Grab selection

Selecting the right grab and ensuring you got all the information for your team can be a challenge. Most common questions are listed below, still need help then contact us.
How does Nemag support safety and compliance for its equipment?

Our grabs are designed to help reduce risk through engineering details (e.g., accessible harness points, smooth/flush contours), and are validated with documented processes (e.g., 60-point inspections, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001 certificates, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) summaries, proof-load testing).

Safe operation always depends on trained personnel, correct procedures, and the crane/terminal’s own safety policies.

How often should Nemag grabs be inspected, and how quickly are spare parts available?

Planned inspections at regular cycle intervals (e.g., basic checks around 10.000 cycles; deeper inspections around 100.000 cycles) are recommended by Nemag.

Wear parts and kits are available and can be delivered with your purchase.

Typical dispatch target for stocked parts is under 48 hours to keep downtime low.
