Description
The NM Attachments Class 6 Hydraulic Weld-On Excavator Thumb - 2 Tines is a heavy-duty material-handling attachment designed for approximately 6–7 ton excavators weighing 12,000–14,000 lb. Model 6HWO-2T combines hydraulic operation, weld-on mounting, high-grade structural-steel construction, and two AR400 steel tines to help excavators handle bulky, irregular, and difficult-to-manage materials. It is suited to land clearing, demolition, material handling, and related excavator work where improved control and retention of material are required.
Heavy-Duty Excavator Material Handling
The NM Attachments 6HWO-2T is a hydraulic weld-on thumb built for demanding excavator applications. Its two AR400 tines provide a durable contact surface for gripping and controlling materials, while the hydraulic design supports operation as part of the excavator’s attachment system. The weld-on configuration provides a permanent mounting approach for compatible machines and is intended for installation on the excavator.
With its heavy-duty construction and two-tine configuration, this thumb is appropriate for handling branches, logs, demolition debris, and other materials encountered during site work. It can help expand the practical capabilities of a compatible excavator beyond digging by improving material control during loading, sorting, clearing, and demolition tasks.
Key Features
- Hydraulic operation: Designed for hydraulic excavator thumb applications.
- Two-tine configuration: Model 6HWO-2T uses two tines for material control and handling.
- AR400 steel tines: Built with AR400 steel tines for heavy-duty excavator work.
- High-grade structural-steel construction: Manufactured using high-grade structural steel.
- Weld-on mounting: Provides a weld-on installation configuration for compatible excavators.
- Material-handling versatility: Suitable for land clearing, demolition, material handling, and related applications.
- Class 6 machine-size fit: Intended for excavators in the 12,000–14,000 lb range, approximately 6–7 tons.
Applications
This excavator thumb is designed for work that requires an excavator to grasp, retain, move, or position material. Typical applications include:
- Land clearing
- Demolition
- Material handling
- Handling branches, logs, and other clearing debris
- General excavator work involving bulky or irregular materials
Compatibility and Machine Requirements
The NM Attachments 6HWO-2T is compatible with excavators weighing 12,000–14,000 lb, corresponding to approximately 6–7 ton excavators. Confirm that the excavator is suitable for a hydraulic weld-on thumb and that the planned installation is appropriate for the machine before purchase. Because this is a weld-on attachment, installation requires the appropriate mounting preparation and welding work on the excavator.
