Hydraulic Thumb Kit for 200-Series Excavators (40,000–53,000 lb) – PV4701

Fits Models At A Glance:

• 200-Series Excavators: Sized for excavators in the 40,000 to 53,000 lb operating-weight class (the "200 size" class — e.g. 20-ton machines such as Cat 320, John Deere 200/210, Komatsu PC200, Hitachi ZX200/EX200 and equivalents)
• Universal Mounting: Built to mount on any excavator within this weight range — confirm your machine's operating weight and that it is thumb-ready before ordering

Key Notes:

• Part Number: PV4701
• Type: Hydraulic bucket thumb kit — hydraulically actuated, opens and closes independently of the bucket for full grip control
• Machine Size Class: 200 Series — 40,000 to 53,000 lb excavators
• What "200 Series" Means: A size class, not a specific model — it refers to the thumb built for 20-ton-class excavators (the common "200" size designation across brands). Match your machine by operating weight, not model name.
• REQUIRED — Machine Must Be Thumb-Ready: Bi-directional (two-way) auxiliary hydraulic plumbing must already be installed and run to the end of the arm for this thumb to function. Confirm your machine is plumbed for a thumb or attachment before ordering.
• Application: Works opposite the bucket to grip, hold, and handle logs, brush, rock, demolition debris, and irregular loads; hydraulic actuation lets the operator clamp material at any bucket position
• Origin: Made in USA
• Manufacturer: PVE Products
• Shipping: LTL Truck Freight

Common Use Case or Symptoms:
Add when your work requires gripping and handling material a bucket alone can't hold — land clearing, brush and log handling, demolition sorting, and rock placement. A hydraulic thumb dramatically expands what a 20-ton excavator can pick up and control.

Why Choose Broken Tractor:
