Maintain digging power & eliminate pin-pounding.
WedgeBolt couplers outperform pin-grabber couplers, reducing breakout force by up to 25%. Change attachments quickly with our mechanical models; two bolts & a wedge bar are all that’s needed. Even replace lugs easily: pattern, cut, weld & paint for a like-new attachment.
WEDGEBOLT VS PIN-GRABBER COUPLERS
Excavator quick coupler attachments are designed to dig based on a specific bucket curl or rotation. Pin grabbing quick couplers create a space between the end of the stick and the bucket. This space on the quick attach excavator bucket can be as much as 8 to 13 inches. This results in a loss of digging power by as much as 25%! The larger the machine, the greater the loss in breakout force without an excavator hydraulic quick coupler.
STOP POUNDING PINS
- Pounding can damage your grease seals
- Pounding can cause pins to mushroom
- Pounding damages the end of your stick
- Pounding is very time-consuming
- Pounding requires at least two people
HYDRAULIC WEDGEBOLT COUPLERS
- Integrated lifting eye allows the operator a means to hook up a shackle to lift loads directly from the coupler without adding additional attachment weight
- Reinforced frame combined with sleek engineered design provide increased lifting capacity
- Triple tiered safety lock system provides a dependable positive locking to prevent accidental disengagement of the attachment
- Large high pressure release cylinder performs reliably in the engagement and disengagement of attachments
- Audible and visual warnings are displayed in the operator cab whenever wedge bar is disengaged
- Can be used with attachments in the same weight class designed for manual couplers
