Built-Tough

Introducing the MT830 Mechanical Weld-On Thumb, a reliable and robust solution designed to optimize your material handling tasks. Measuring 8" wide by 30" long, this thumb is ideal for machines between 6,000lbs and 9,900lbs and weighs 115lbs. Constructed with ½" thick AR400 steel tines assembled in a ladder frame construction and reinforced with gussets, this thumb is built for increased strength and long-lasting durability. The A-Frame link design further enhances the thumb by increasing torsional rigidity, ensuring that it can handle the toughest of tasks with ease. Additionally, the MT830's main pin is greaseable to ensure smooth operation and minimize wear.

Superior Geometry

The MT830 features an unparalleled design that sets it apart from the competition. With three adjustable positions at 90, 105, and 120 degrees, you can customize your thumb for the perfect fit and optimal functionality. The 120-degree position offers greater flexibility and reach compared to other brands. When not in use, this compact thumb quickly stows away, taking up only 29.5" of vertical room on your excavator stick and extending just 7.5" off the stick when stowed, ensuring it won't get in your way when digging. With no loose parts when stowed, you can rest assured that your equipment is secure and ready for use whenever you need it.

Maximize Your Investment

Invest in the MT830 to maximize the capabilities of your excavators between 6,000lbs and 9,900lbs. This thumb's three position adjustability and compact stowing makes it perfect for homeowners, landscapers, and smaller contractors looking to get the most out of their equipment. With 35 years of experience and a strong commitment to our company values, Gentec has become a trusted choice for more than 50,000 satisfied clients. As a family-owned business, we take pride in our products and prioritize your satisfaction. Choose the MT830 Mechanical Weld-On Thumb for a lasting investment that will make a difference in your projects for years to come.
