Inspection report

October 6, 2026

Every unit is scored by hand on four facets, 1 to 5 on each. There is no overall score: the four facet scores are the condition.

Plain box, packed well

The original box or a plain one, and whether the contents sit in their packing or loose.

2/5
  • Shipping cartonThe plain carton is scuffed, taped and torn at one corner.

Every unit is inspected and photographed by hand, one at a time. We describe what we find as accurately as we can, and we do miss things: a mark under a light, a part we did not think to check. If a unit arrives different from this report, tell us and we will put it right under our return policy. More on the scale itself in how we rate.

About this item

This thumb clip kit mounts to a mini excavator bucket using an L-bracket and connects to the machine's auxiliary hydraulic system through two hydraulic hoses, allowing the arm to open and close for gripping tasks. The gripper arm is built from high-strength steel with serrated, anti-slip teeth designed to hold slippery or rounded materials such as rocks, logs, pipes and concrete debris.

It is intended for use in confined work areas where precise handling is needed, such as clearing rebar and concrete waste, moving timber without damaging the surface, placing drainage or cable pipe, or separating ore from waste rock during excavation.

Installation involves removing the bucket's original pin, fitting the thumb clamp bracket, connecting the hydraulic line, and adjusting the opening and closing stroke to suit the bucket. The listing notes this requires a two-line hydraulic system on the excavator.
