The CP main pin hydraulic thumb by Paladin Construction Group acts as the perfect assistant to CP Buckets for mini-excavators and excavators up to 100,000 lbs. (45,359 kg). It allows for a rotation of up to 140 degrees, allowing you to pick up large objects or keep the thumb out of the way when it isn’t needed. The CP main pin hydraulic thumb is designed to hold the load securely with individually serrated thumb fingers that grip the material. Reinforced side plates and thumb fingers add strength to pick up most materials, no matter how heavy or abrasive.

The CP main pin hydraulic thumb’s fingers are manufactured of T-1 steel, ranging from .62 up to 1.5 in. (1.6 to 3.8 cm). Installation is simple, requiring only the welding of a hydraulic cylinder bracket and then attachment with a few pins and a hydraulic cylinder.

In addition, CP also offers the:

• Progressive Link Hydraulic Thumb — For heavy-duty applications, it features a lock-back bracket that prevents the thumb from drifting when not in use and spherical bearings in the hydraulic cylinder and thumb.

• Weld-on Hydraulic Thumb — Features versatile, hydraulic thumb positioning and low profile thumb storage for optimal visibility.

• Weld-on Stiff Arm Thumb — Features a Y-Yoke thumb adjustment for specific placement and multiple mounting positions for optimum performance.
