EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENTS |
|
|
| |
Overview |
|
|
| |
We offer a wide range of excavator attachments, to make your excavator far more than just a digging machine. A small sample of these can be seen on our excavator attachments movie below. Our sales team will provide advice on chosing the right attachment for your machine and your job. |

Heavy duty ripper teeth |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
An essential piece of kit for all minis and 360os, the ripper teeth makes
light work of hard or rocky ground. Ripping ground prior to
digging will greatly reduce wear and stress on both bucket and
machine, and speed up cycle times. Fitted with replaceable CAT
type tip.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Clay Spades |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Useful for any excavator digging narrow trenches, in wet or sticky ground conditions.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Tilt Ditchers |
|
|
| |
Single ram, hydraulically actuated tilt ditchers allow up to 40o of tilt in each direction, and are ideal for finish grading on applications such as groundworks, golf courses and landscaping. Available for any machine from 2 to 30 tonnes. |

LAND CLEARANCE RAKES |
 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Land Clearance Rakes have many applications and are suitable for use
on all sizes of micro, mini and 360o excavator from 0.5 to 70
tonnes operating weight. For most jobs, the overall width and
height of the rake is similar to that of the machine's largest
digging bucket.
Gaps between the tines will depend on the sort of work you envisage.
For jobs such as moving tree roots, rocks and other large debris,
a large gap- and consequently fewer, thicker tines - is best.
For sorting stone from soil, you need the gaps set to a width
that retains the size of debris you wish to remove. If however,
you work in areas where the soil is particularly heavy and sticky,
you will need a reasonable gap to prevent clogging of the tines.
We can advise on these criteria. Check our our land clearance rakes technical resource page for more info or contact us |

With
a Land Clearance Rake you can:
- Sort
debris out from soil
- Lift
and move objects whilst leaving soil behind
- Brake
up hard, compacted top soil
- Ideal
for use with our Grip Talon attachment
- Root
out, or carry hedges and shrubs

Grapples |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Grapples, or grabs, are available for all excavators and are a
durable, cost effective solution for long term materials handling
requirements. All models feature HARDOX 400
material (390 to 430 Brinell hardness) for the main plates, giving
excellent strength and wear resistance.
Digger grapples require no additional hydraulic rams or services, and
are simply operated by the bucket ram, which actuates the moving
half (2 tined section) whilst the static (3 tined) half, is held
by a con-rod, attached to a three position bracket, which is welded
to the dipper arm. All necessary pins, brackets and con-rods are
included. There are two main types: |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
Boxed Tine:
The ultimate grapple. Normally supplied as ‘Rock spec.’ this
is our strongest type of grapple, and is capable of withstanding
extremely arduous applications such as; primary demolition,
and rock handling in quarries or for sea defence projects.
The tines are fabricated - in HARDOX 400
- as box sections, just like an excavator boom or dipper arm, to
give immense rigidity, without excessive weight.
All of these grapples feature hardened
top hat bushes, which interlink the two grapple halves
(so the grapple stays intact when removed from the excavator)
to also allow for easy replacement of pivot wear. For
maximum grip and opening capacity, the grapple pivots
about the dipper end on a special bucket pin (included),
whilst the rear bucket link pin remains standard.
Units
made specifically for rock handling will carry extra reinforcing
on the inner faces of the two grapples halves. |
Solid Tine:
Less expensive than the boxed tine grapple, and not as heavily
constructed, the solid tine grapple is ideal for general, lighter
duties; secondary demolition handling general debris, such
as light girders or timbers, waste transfer handling and sorting,
scrap.
The
tines are profile cut from solid HARDOX 400
material, and the two halves of the grapple are connected
by twin hinge pins (supplied). The grapple attaches to
the machine using the standard machine buckets pins (not
supplied), and for this reason, it is generally possible
to use this type of grapple with our SPRINGLOCK or MULTILOCK quick
hitches. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
For light, general work, you might get away without the expense
of a grapple and use our Grip
Talon attachment, but for heavy, continuous use, in
severe applications, accept no substitutes and specify a grapple.
The information shown above details out the general specifications
of our grapples - in particular, the two main types - but
our sales team will be pleased to advise on the best attachment
for your excavator. |

Grip Talons
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
 A
versatile attachment, with many uses, the Grip Talon is indispensable
for:
• Demolition
• Forestry
• Landscaping
• Recycling
• Skip Hire
• Waste Transfer
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
With models available for all mini and 360o excavators,
the Grip Talon is a competitively priced, lighter duty alternative
to a solid tine grapple. Customers tell us they find this attachment
invaluable for all types of work, and the comment “I don’t
know how we coped without it!” is common.
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Benefits include:
 |
• |
Allows awkward sized objects to be handled,
sorted and placed with ease. |
| • |
Does not impede the normal digging function
of the excavator. |
| • |
Can be used with all standard digging buckets, riddle buckets and land clearance rakes |
| • |
Heavy objects can be carefully loaded into dump
trucks or skips with minimal damage. |
| • |
Can be removed or folded back against dipper
if necessary. |
Available for all excavators from 0.5 T micros to 45 T machines
- one of the most underrated attachments of all.

in all general demolition and recycling applications, for processing
concrete and stone, the mechanical pulverisor is a simple, durable

What machines can mechanical pulverisor be
fitted to?
Although potentially feesable on excavators from 6 T upwards, we
tend to find that machines much less than 10 tonnes are far more
productive when fitted with our BAV, hydraulic crusher. Apart from
this proviso, any excavator up to 65 T will operate these attachments
with ease. |
 |
Quality materials are essential for long term durability.
All main plates on our mechanical pulverisors are manufactured
from HARDOX 400
plate (note red painted plates, with certification marks)
which is a universally recognised source.
|
| For compact machines, from 1.2 to 16 tonnes, see the BAV Alligator Crushers |

Augers & Trenchers
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
 Our enormous range of Augers and Drive Units cover
360o excavators from 0.75 tonne 'micros' up to 35 tonne machines
and skid steer loaders, and all but the very smallest - the DDO
(for up to 1.5T) - feature integral, high torque, planetary reduction
gearboxes.
This torque, allied to the constant spiral design of the augers,
gives outstanding digging power, even in hard ground conditions.
With optional tungsten tipped teeth even fracturable rock and sandstone
can be penetrated.
Drive units can be fitted with various brackets, to allow interchange
between different machines, provided they are within the correct
weight range for the unit.
Depending on your machine - and our sales team will be happy to
advise on this - you can have augers from 100 mm on smaller machines
to 1200 mm diameter on 35 tonners, and can bore as deep as 10 metres
using extensions on the largest.
Most modern machines will be equipped with the two-way, auxiliary
hydraulic circuits, neccessary to drive an auger or trencher.
The Chain Trencher attachments can be fitted to any mini
excavator from 2 to 8 T, and also skid steer loaders. Depending
on your machine, and the model of trencher (we currently offer three
sizes), chains can be set up with cut widths from 80 to 300 mm,
and boom\chain digging depths from 450 to 1200 mm.

BLOCK GRABS
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
 Keep on the right side of the new HSE handling regulations for
blocks, kerbs and slabs.
The new HSE lifting regulations are limiting manual handling on sites,
and it is your responsibility to make sure you’re able to comply
by using machines/attachments rather than lifting by hand.
Our simple mechanical grabs are designed specifically for use on excavators
and are fully tested (see information below).
All are supplied as dedicated kits, for direct pin
mounting to your excavator and include:
|
|
|
|
|

Post Punchers |
|
| |
In softer ground conditions, it is often far quicker to drive fence posts directly into place, rather than digging or boring post holes beforehand. The PostPuncher is a fast, safe and simple method of using a mini digger to install fence posts on site.
There are three sizes of unit available:
PP1 - drives in posts up to 125mm (5 inches).
It has a driving weight of 62kg and an overall weight of 140kg (excluding frame)
PP2M - drives in posts up to 200mm (8 inches).
It has a driving weight of 85kg and an overall weight of 175kg (excluding frame)
PP2 - drives in posts up to 200mm (8 inches).
It has a driving weight of 105kg and an overall weight of 210kg (excluding frame)
PP3 - drives in posts up to 280mm (11 inches).
It has a driving weight of 200kg and an overall weight of 385kg (excluding frame)
 A bright steel driving weight enclosed in a steel tube to allow safe operation in any conditions
A forward mounted capability.
Postpuncher can be fitted to any tractor front end loader, telehandler, excavator, skidsteer, back hoe.
Operators can drive posts in at angles of 45º and upwards.
Postpuncher is incredibly versatile and robust. It can be operated on slopes, in woods, over hedges, on river banks and over ditches.

Rotating Grabs |
|
| |
|
|
| |
For long-term handling and sorting use - particularly demolition, recycling and waste transfer - there is no substitute for hydraulically rotating grabs and grapples.
The Kinshofer units we sell are not only well designed and immensely rugged, but also very competitively priced. A market leader in the truck crane attachment market, Kinshofer have teamed-up with DIGBITS to bring this product to the UK excavator market. |
