FAQ about this model
What size excavators is this thumb designed for?
The PowerBrute Hydraulic Thumb covers 11 excavator weight classes, from 1-3 ton mini excavators up to 40-50 ton machines. It comes in 15 configurations so you can match it to your specific make and model using Amulet's fitment chart rather than a single one-size unit.
How does the thumb attach to my excavator?
Mounting options include a weld-on base plate, a coupler pin-on version with weld-on base plate, and a "thumb-ready" setup that uses your machine's existing OEM cylinder mount. Case and John Deere specific mounts are also available, so the right option depends on your excavator model.
Will it work with the bucket I already have?
Yes. Amulet states it works with virtually any bucket that your host machine can accept, so you don't need to swap buckets to use the thumb alongside your current setup.
What are the pins made of, and how does the cylinder hold up under load?
The main pin is an independent design made from heat treated pin material, built to handle repeated grabbing and clamping cycles. The hydraulic cylinder is a cushioned type, which softens the end of stroke movement rather than letting it stop abruptly.
Is this made overseas or domestically, and what's the warranty?
The PowerBrute Hydraulic Thumb is 100% USA made and comes with a 2 year warranty from Amulet Manufacturing.
