Why location of poles matters. SharpGrade uses no center pivot. Each side of the blade is controlled independent of each other mitigating all cross coupling. Putting each pole directly above each hydraulic cylinder is the most accurate way of controlling the cutting edge resulting in more precise and productive grading.
A short video explaining the difference between our patented QuadRod linkage on a SharpGrade laser grader and a traditional centre pivot blade. The ability to operate one side of the blade without influencing the position of the opposite side means we can grade much quicker and accurately. The opposite side (depicted by the arrow) was 100% on grade (the same height as the SharpGrade's wing) but was forced completely off grade by the opposite side. It is a control system's worst nightmare.
A skid steer grader blade or CTL box blade turns your compact loader into a precision grading machine. Whether you’re running a compact track loader (CTL) or skid steer, the right grader attachment makes site preparation faster, more accurate, and more profitable. Here are ten of the most common ways contractors and operators are using SharpGrade grader blades and box blades across industries: 1. Construction & Siteworks Level building pads, prepare foundations, and fine grade with accuracy that’s hard to achieve with buckets or dozer blades. Perfect for both residential and commercial construction sites. 2. Landscaping & Hardscaping A skid steer box blade makes quick work of contouring lawns, preparing garden beds, and grading for retaining walls, paving, and outdoor living spaces. 3. Civil Engineering Projects From road shoulders to drainage slopes, compact track loader grading attachments deliver consistent profiles for cycleways, pathways, and car park bases. 4. Agriculture & Horticulture CTL grader blades are widely used in orchards, vineyards, and irrigation projects to create precise grades for water flow and planting efficiency. 5. Golf Course Construction & Renovation Contractors use precision grader attachments to shape fairways, tees, and greens, restoring or building courses with contour accuracy that meets original design intent. 6. Sports Fields & Turf Management For stadiums, racetracks, and athletic fields, a skid steer grader blade ensures uniform surfaces and proper drainage for top-quality turf performance. 7. Driveway, Pavement & Road Construction Building and maintaining gravel or compacted accessways is made easier with a skid steer box blade ensuring the correct camber and long-lasting drainage. 8. Utility & Infrastructure Installation CTL grader blades are essential for trench backfilling, pipeline and cable alignment, and flat pad preparation for tanks, substations, and utility projects. 9. Equestrian Arenas & Tracks Equestrian contractors rely on grader attachments to create and maintain consistent footing and slope in arenas and training tracks. 10. Rental Fleets & Hire Businesses Because they suit so many applications, skid steer grader blades are a smart addition to rental fleets, giving customers a versatile tool for accurate ground shaping. Why Choose a CTL Grader Blade? Adding a grader blade or box blade to your compact track loader is one of the most cost-effective ways to boost productivity. It gives you the performance of a larger grading machine while taking advantage of your loader’s maneuverability and versatility. With SharpGrade, you get industry-leading precision, durability, and design built for contractors who demand accuracy, efficiency, and results.
