Fleco Progressive Link Thumb
The Fleco Progressive Link Thumb is engineered to improve excavator material handling by combining heavy-duty construction with advanced progressive linkage geometry. Compared to conventional thumb designs, the progressive linkage provides increased thumb rotation and improved bucket synchronization, allowing operators to securely grip logs, rock, concrete, brush, pipe and demolition debris with greater control throughout the bucket cycle.
Fleco Progressive Link Thumb Overview
The Progressive Link Thumb is designed to increase the versatility of excavators used in construction, demolition, forestry, recycling and utility work. Its progressive linkage geometry allows the thumb to follow the bucket more effectively through the digging cycle, improving gripping performance while reducing the need to reposition material.
Key Features
- Progressive link design provides increased thumb rotation and a larger gripping envelope than standard Main Pin Thumbs.
- Improved bucket synchronization helps the thumb follow the bucket more effectively through the digging cycle.
- Constructed with heavy-duty AR400 steel and equipped with serrated teeth for exceptional gripping ability.
- Hydraulic cylinder included with all necessary brackets and pins for installation.
- Designed to pin directly to excavators and backhoes, with or without a coupler.
- Options to customize the quantity and alignment of tines to meet specific job requirements.
