Dipper thumb kit

JCB Attachments offer a comprehensive aftermarket kit to add a dipper thumb to an “inner boom” of a JCB Backhoe Loader. This new kit increases the versatility of the machine and includes the thumb, thumb mount, bushes and dipper mounting pin for complete installation. In addition to this, the thumb comes with standard attachment warranty.

  • Easier to pick-up, control, and grab materials, especially difficult to handle items and objects (e.g. logs)
  • Fully integrated into the dipper allowing it to be stowed when not in use whilst providing full bucket rotation for uncompromised material handling
  • Greater machine versatility and productivity
  • The hydraulically powered thumb utilises the BHL auxiliary circuit
  • Encourages safe movement of uneven loads (e.g. concrete or rocks)
  • Dipper pin mounted for complete grab rotation
  • Fully compatible with a range of JCB buckets - 450mm width and above
  • Perfectly matched with JCB Quickhitches
