DESCRIPTION

The Solesbee’s Progressive Link Hydraulic Thumb – SPT Series is engineered for maximum versatility, precision, and material‑handling efficiency. Designed for excavators from 33,000 – 79,000 lbs (16.5 – 39.5 tons), this thumb uses a unique progressive linkage system to deliver a full 180° rotation, allowing operators to grip, lift, and position materials with unmatched control.

Whether handling logs, rocks, demolition debris, or irregular loads, the SPT Series folds tightly against the stick when not in use, preserving full digging capability. Built from high‑strength steel and equipped with a USA‑made heavy‑duty hydraulic cylinder, it’s available in multiple widths, lengths, and quick‑coupler configurations to perfectly match your bucket and machine class.
