Our excavator thumbs are constructed of high tempered steel to withstand the full force of the bucket. Like the thumb on your hand, this thumb allows the bucket to grasp objects, making it an excellent tool for loading brush, logs, or debris.

Thumbs are easy to attach, and fold out of the way when not in use.
There are many sizes available to fit your backhoe or excavator.
