MT1445
2/24
Built-Tough
Introducing the MT1445 Mechanical Weld-On Thumb, a reliable and robust solution designed to optimize your material handling tasks. Measuring 14" wide by 45" long, this thumb is ideal for machines between 13,000lbs and 19,000lbs and weighs a solid 323lbs. Constructed with ¾" thick AR400 steel tines assembled in a ladder frame construction and reinforced with gussets, this thumb is built for increased strength and long-lasting durability. The A-Frame link design further enhances the thumb by increasing torsional rigidity, ensuring that it can handle the toughest of tasks with ease. Additionally, a greaseable main pin is featured to ensure smooth operation and minimize wear.
Superior Geometry
The MT1445 features an unparalleled design that sets it apart from the competition. With three adjustable positions at 90, 105, and 120 degrees, you can customize your thumb for the perfect fit and optimal functionality. The 120-degree position offers greater flexibility and reach compared to other brands. When not in use, this compact thumb quickly stows away, taking up only 55" of vertical room on your excavator stick and extending just 9" off the stick when stowed, ensuring it won't get in your way when digging. A mechanical stopper is incorporated in the MT1445 design to guarantee that the tine assembly is properly positioned for secure pin alignment during stowing.
Maximize Your Investment
Invest in the MT1445 to maximize the capabilities of your excavator. This thumb is perfect for smaller owner-operator contractors looking to get the most out of their equipment. The three-position adjustability and quick stowing make it a versatile and efficient addition to your machine. With 35 years of experience and a strong commitment to our company values, Gentec has become a trusted choice for more than 50,000 satisfied clients. As a family-owned business, we take pride in our products and prioritize your satisfaction.

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.
