The picture shown is of an excavator "thumb" that was designed and built from a customer provided concept sketch. If you think of an excavator or backhoe bucket as "fingers" this "thumb" provides the missing component needed for the operator to "grasp" bulky items. The mounting is accomplished with the parts shown on the second photo. If you are the owner of a demolition company or scrap yard this type of equipment is designed for you. As a cost savings to this customer we cut the parts for this "thumb" from HY-80 steel provided by the customer.

The excavator Thumb & mounting hardware we designed and built for a North Carolina Scrap yard.

We also provide bucket, boom and stick repairs for those excavators that have either broken or simply worn out components. Any owner of construction equipment know the expense of having that needed piece of heavy equipment out of service when a deadline is getting close.

No matter how economical we need to be in order to meet our customer's budget all of our fabrications are completely cleaned and primed with Sherwin-Williams rust inhibiting primer.
