Built-Tough

Introducing the HT830 Hydraulic Weld-On Thumb, built-tough for contractors, homeowners, and landscapers who demand reliability and durability. Our 8"x24" thumb is designed for machines between 6,000lbs and 9,900lbs and weighs just 117lbs. Constructed from 1/2" thick AR400 steel tines in a ladder frame layout with gussets, it's designed for increased strength and long-lasting durability. Trust in the HT830's double-sealed welded hydraulic cylinder, ensuring increased reliability for years to come. Both the cylinder pins and the thumb's main pin are greaseable, ensuring smooth operation and reduced wear.

Superior Geometry

Experience the superior geometry of the HT830 Hydraulic Weld-On Thumb. With a maximum extension angle of 140 degrees, it outperforms the competition, offering greater versatility and ease of use. When fully retracted, the tip of the tines only extend 11" away from the edge of the excavator stick, ensuring minimal stowed dimensions and preventing interference when digging. The thumb's geometry is designed to mechanically stop the tine assembly from causing cylinder lock-out when retracted, protecting your equipment and guaranteeing a smooth operation.

MEASUREMENTS

Please follow these instructions when measuring. You want your "stick to tip" measurement to be as close to the thumb tine length as possible. GENTEC's mounting plates are very narrow so typically there is no problems with the mounting plate (exception is the very smallest class of mini excavator)

INSTALLATION

Please follow these instructions when installing your thumb.
