Change—it’s part of everyday life and in recent years has become a necessity in business. One company leading the way for change in the excavator attachment industry is Aussie Buckets. Established in 2018, out of necessity to provide hard-working Australians with quality products at a fair price, Aussie Buckets are leading the industry in fabricating on-demand machinery attachments. Max Tomich, Director of Aussie Buckets, believes that the future of the attachment industry belongs to fabrication on demand. “We believe fabricating on demand is the way of the future,” says Max. “A machine is only as good as its weakest attachment, which is why we [Aussie Buckets] fabricate for your machine and build to specifications.”

Have you ever wondered what it might feel like to invest in 1 attachment but receive 10? It’s a bit like having an impact driver with 100 pieces, 1 tool with hundreds of applications! This is what it feels like to operate a Hydraulic Rotating Grab. We all like to rate our operating skills, butt here is nothing more masculine than operating one of these. If you are familiar with rotating grabs, or this is your first time seeing them I’m going to share with you why there is no greater investment you can make. Fortunately, though, I’ll guide you through the trials and tribulations presented to first time rotating hydraulic users. Mind you, using one has actually never been so simple.

As we all know every excavator is different and we want to ensure that the attachment you get from us is gonna be spot on. This is why we have all our customers confirm their catch length to ensure the length of the thumb will be suitable and give you the most effective use out of your attachment.

Installing a thumb is a really easy process with one of our Aussie Buckets hydraulic thumb kits. We provide everything you need to get this attachment mounted up and operating as soon as possible. Each kit includes the following;

Arguably the most important step in the initial stages of your order is to correctly measure up and provide to us your pin dimensions. Despite us have many OEM specifications on file, we will ask you to verify and take measurements yourself so that we can ensure correct fitment of your order. I think we all know what will happen if the incorrect dimensions are provided, so lets do our best to avoid that!
