Description

The NM Attachments Class 8 Hydraulic Weld-On Excavator Thumb – 2 Tines is a heavy-duty material-handling attachment designed for excavators with an operating weight of 14,000–24,000 lb, or approximately 7–12 tons. Model 8HWO-2T combines hydraulic operation with a durable weld-on mounting style to help operators grip, control, and move materials during general excavator work. Its two AR400 steel tines provide a robust contact surface, while the high-grade structural-steel construction is built for demanding material-handling applications.

Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Material Handling

The NM Attachments 8HWO-2T is intended for excavator operators who need additional control when handling materials. The hydraulic thumb configuration supports gripping applications by working with the excavator’s bucket, helping secure and manage loads during general material handling. With two tines made from AR400 steel, the thumb is designed to provide durable engagement with the material being handled.

This attachment uses a weld-on mounting style and is intended for permanent installation on a compatible excavator. Its high-grade structural-steel construction supports the heavy-duty design, while the Class 8 designation identifies it for excavators in the 14,000–24,000 lb operating-weight range.

Key Features

  • Hydraulic weld-on excavator thumb for material handling and general gripping applications
  • Two-tine configuration for engaging and controlling materials
  • AR400 steel tines for durable contact with handled materials
