Solesbee's Heavy-Duty Excavator Rakes

Unleash the Power of Solesbee's Excavator Rakes

When it comes to land clearing, forestry, demolition, and site preparation, few attachments are as productive as a Solesbee's Heavy-Duty Excavator Rake. Engineered for maximum durability and precision, these rakes allow operators to grab, pull, separate, and sort brush, roots, rocks, and demolition debris while leaving valuable soil where it belongs.

Built in Winston, Georgia, Solesbee's Excavator Rakes are available for excavators ranging from 11,000 lbs to over 111,000 lbs, making them the ideal attachment for everything from compact excavators to large production machines.

Built for Professional Land Clearing

Unlike a traditional bucket that scoops everything in its path, the Solesbee's Excavator Rake is designed to separate material efficiently. Brush, stumps, roots, logs, rocks, and construction debris are captured while dirt and smaller material fall through the tines.

The result is:

• Cleaner debris piles
• Less soil disturbance
• Faster cleanup
• Reduced hauling of unnecessary material
• Improved productivity on every job

Whether you're clearing a building site, reclaiming farmland, or cleaning up after demolition, the Solesbee's Rake helps you work smarter.

Heavy-Duty Construction That Lasts

Every Solesbee's Excavator Rake is engineered to withstand years of abuse in demanding environments.

Features include:

• Heavy-duty welded steel construction
• Reinforced frame and tine design
• Replaceable weld-on wear strips
• Multiple width options
• Standard pin-on or quick coupler mounting
• Compatible with manual or hydraulic thumbs
• Custom widths available

Replaceable wear strips protect high-wear areas from abrasion caused by rocks, roots, and demolition debris, significantly extending the attachment's service life.

Perfect for Thumb Applications

One of the biggest advantages of the Solesbee's Excavator Rake is its ability to work seamlessly with your existing thumb.

Compatible with:

• Hydraulic thumbs
• Mechanical thumbs
• Progressive-link thumbs
• Pin-mounted thumbs

When combined with a thumb, the rake becomes an incredibly effective grapple for handling:

• Logs
• Brush
• Stumps
• Rocks
• Concrete
• Steel
• Demolition debris

No modifications are required.
