NM Attachments - Class 3 Hydraulic Weld-On Excavator Thumb - Heavy-Duty Material Handling Thumb - AR400 Tines [NM-3HWO-2T]

NM Attachments 3HWO-2T Class 3 Hydraulic Weld-On Excavator Thumb adds controlled material handling capability to compact excavators in the 6,000–10,000 lb range, approximately 3–5 tons. Built with heavy-duty structural steel and two AR-400 hardened, abrasion-resistant tines, this hydraulic thumb is designed to help secure, gather, lift, and control debris, brush, logs, and other materials during land clearing, demolition, excavation, and general material-handling work. Its weld-on mounting provides a fixed attachment solution, while hydraulic operation uses the excavator’s hydraulic system for convenient thumb control from the machine.

Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Material Handling

The NM Attachments 3HWO-2T is a hydraulic weld-on excavator thumb intended for compact excavators in the approximately 3–5 ton class. The two-tine design works with the excavator bucket to grip and manage loose or bulky material that can be difficult to control with the bucket alone. It is suited to applications including debris and brush removal, land clearing, demolition, excavation, and general material handling.

AR-400 tines provide hardened, abrasion-resistant construction for demanding working environments. Combined with heavy-duty structural-steel construction, the thumb is designed for regular use where material contact and handling demands require a robust attachment. The weld-on mount is installed directly to the excavator and provides a permanent mounting arrangement.

Key Features
