Description
Excavator Thumb from Solesbee’s Equipment!
Excavator Thumbs are built to machine specifications to suit the bucket width and number of teeth in order to mesh properly with the bucket’s cutting edge.
All thumbs require a fully filled out spec sheet to be manufactured. This is to ensure a tight fitment on the bucket and also to ensure that the thumb meshes properly with the bucket.
Excavator Hydraulic Pin Mounted Thumb
The most common hydraulic thumb setup that mounts through the main pain of the machine’s stick & bucket (or quick coupler). The main pin replaces the main bucket pin and only requires welding of the hydraulic cylinder base plate to the machine.
- All pins, bushings and cylinder is included with each thumb.
- Hoses are not included
- Built to order to suit any excavator and bucket combination
- Heavy duty design with thick steel plate and welds – built completely in the US
Excavator Hydraulic Stick Mounted Thumb
Stick mounted thumbs have a similar style to the above pin mounted thumbs, however they are completely fixed to the excavator stick. The thumb itself is longer in order to still reach the bucket cutting edge.
- All pins, bushings and cylinder is included with each thumb.
- Hoses are not included
- Built to order to suit any excavator and bucket combination
- Heavy duty design with thick steel plate and welds – built completely in the US
Excavator Hydraulic Progressive Link Thumb
Progressive link thumbs are designed to offer more rotation than a standard hydraulic thumb. By adding another link, a progressive link thumb can rotate a full 180 degrees. Can also be folded up for tighter storage than a standard thumb.
