DESCRIPTION
The Amulet B.R.U.T. CT Series Rigid Excavator Thumb is a high-performance, convertible attachment system designed for excavators ranging from 1 to 10 tons. Built for demanding applications such as demolition, land clearing, scrap handling, rip rap, and material sorting, this series delivers unmatched strength, versatility, and long-term durability.
Engineered with a universal fit base plate, the CT Series ensures fast installation across multiple machine types while maintaining secure and stable operation. Each model features a 4-position telescopic strut system that allows precise control of grip angles for improved handling efficiency.
The convertible rigid-to-hydraulic design adds exceptional value, enabling future upgrade to hydraulic operation without replacing the entire attachment. Built with high-strength steel and heat-treated pins, the CT Series ensures reliable performance under heavy loads with minimal maintenance.
With multiple model options from ST01-1 through CT27-1, operators can select the ideal configuration for their machine size and application needs, maximizing productivity and excavator versatility on every jobsite.
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Excavator Thumb Series Design The Amulet B.R.U.T. CT Series is engineered for rugged excavation environments. Built from high-strength steel, it delivers superior durability, impact resistance, and reliable performance in demolition, land clearing, scrap handling, and construction applications.
- Wide Machine Compatibility Range 1–10 Tons Designed to fit excavators and backhoes from 1 to 10 tons, this series offers scalable performance across multiple machine classes. It ensures proper balance, safe operation, and efficient material handling across different equipment sizes.
- Universal Fit Base Plate Installation System Each model includes a universal mounting base for fast and simple installation. This reduces downtime, eliminates compatibility issues, and allows seamless integration with a wide variety of excavator and backhoe setups.
- Convertible Hydraulic Upgrade Capability The CT Series features a rigid design with future hydraulic conversion capability. Operators can upgrade to hydraulic operation by replacing the telescopic strut, enhancing control, precision, and productivity without replacing the attachment.
- 4-Position Telescopic Strut Adjustment System A multi-position strut system allows operators to adjust thumb angle for different applications. This improves gripping accuracy, increases flexibility, and enhances performance in complex material handling tasks.
- Heat-Treated Steel Pins for Long-Term Strength All pivot points are equipped with heat-treated steel pins designed to resist wear and deformation. This ensures extended service life, consistent performance, and reduced maintenance requirements under heavy-duty conditions.
- Independent Main Pin Structural Stability Design The independent main pin structure enhances load distribution and stability. It ensures secure operation under heavy stress, improving safety and maintaining consistent performance in demanding jobsite environments.
- Wide Rotation Range for Material Versatility The CT Series provides a broad range of motion for handling irregular materials. This makes it ideal for scrap, rocks, logs, and demolition debris, improving overall operational efficiency and control.
- Compact Fold-Back Storage Position Design When not in use, the thumb folds tightly against the dipper arm. This compact design improves machine visibility, reduces interference, and enhances operator safety during transport and non-gripping tasks.
- Low Maintenance Mechanical Construction With a simplified mechanical structure, the CT Series reduces maintenance needs and operating costs. Fewer moving parts mean less downtime and higher productivity over long-term use.
