Backhoe and Fronthoe Thumb for Excavator Reviews

4.6 Rating 49 Reviews
Read Titan Attachments Reviews

The Mechanical Thumb for a Backhoe or Fronthoe attaches to the boom frame and has five possible positions to help stabilize materials that are hard to control. Simply fold it back or slide it away when not in use.

Please measure your bucket before ordering to ensure a proper match. A mismatched thumb will damage your backhoe, as larger backhoes have more bucket force. For example: if you mount a 25" thumb on a hoe that requires a 31", you will probably bend or break your equipment. Ensure that this thumb is at least the length of your bucket when measured from boom to the teeth, or the warranty may void if damage occurs.

Good heavy duty item that is easy to install. I installed mine on the Titan backhoe. It wants to slide back away form the bucket when used. You cannot tigthen the bolts enough to prevent it getting out of adjustment about everytime you use it. Some suggest welding the bracket to the hoe. I drilled two 1/2" holes in the hoe arm where there were already some unused 1/2" holes in the bracked and installed another 1/2" bolt there and another one in a set of holes that were already there lower on the bracket and should have had a bolt with it. So far that seems to have solved the promlem and I don't think it should have weekend the main arm. Not everyone can weld and you would have to take the entire impliment to a welder if you cannot weld. If this works I will be happy with the hoe and the grapple.

As is it would not fit my 385a. But the price with the sales reduction was too good to lose. I modified it to fit my backhoe and am pleased with it.

The thumb attachment fits my TYM 3515 with a BH150 backhoe like it was made for it.
