Nye Integral Thumbs are hinged directly on the bucket so they come off clean when the bucket is uncoupled. Excellent for loading demolition debris, wood waste, armor stone, etc. Designed to work with most quick couplers, the Integral Thumb stays with the bucket at all times. This allows other attachments to be coupled without interference from the thumb. The Integral Thumb cylinder and bracket can be used with some other attachments like Grapples or Stump Harvesters. Consult our engineering department to determine compatibility with your existing equipment.

Quick Couplers (Stealth)
This is the rugged quick coupler with the unbeatable wedge design Jack Nye developed for a steel mill almost thirty years ago. The Stealth Quick Coupler System is a proven safe and reliable performer that has no moving parts to wear and has the largest mating surface of any system on the market.
Super Stealth is our latest hydraulic offering for 70 – 120 ton machines. Super Stealth features an increased wedge angle for easier coupling, a hydraulic latch that keeps the coupler tight and totally redundant locking pins for the ultimate in safety.

SHX Stump Harvesters
We’ve learned a lot about land clearing since building our first stump buckets over 25 years ago. Our new “SHX” stump harvesters represent the culmination of everything we’ve learned about high performance land clearing equipment.
Two of the most important things to look for in a stump harvester:
Durability – Splitting and ripping stumps produces extreme twisting and prying forces. Only a super strong harvester like the SHX can stay together under these conditions.
Performance – A good harvester is one that can slice through the toughest stumps, grub-out all the roots and rocks, and split large hardwood logs with ease. Nye harvesters can do this and much more.
Rakes
Custom root rakes of all types and sizes. Nye heavy-duty rakes are cut from the very best high strength QT100 and AR400 alloy steels. Customers’ choice of teeth, rake width, tine length and spacing. Our improved tine profiles make Nye rakes the choice of contractors nation-wide. Available in direct pin-on or quick-coupler versions. Optional hydraulic thumb and root cutting blades.
Quick Attach Units
Most versatile quick coupler system. Rugged QT100 construction. Wide coupling range. Simple and safe to operate.
Parallel-Link Extensions
Our most popular and versatile option for extra reach. Useful for deep excavating, demolition and dredging. No cutting, welding or extra hydraulics required. Parallel-Link extensions simply pin onto the end of your existing stick. QT100 structural steel, low hydrogen flux core welds, hardened alloy pins and bushings throughout ensure maximum durability on demanding jobs. Available for 8 to 100 ton machines.
Blade Forks
Nye builds a wide variety of custom loader Forks. Call us today for a quote on the forks you require.
Jibs
Nye builds custom heavy-duty excavator jibs for a wide variety dredging, demolition and high-reach applications.
Nye jibs pin-on in place of your bucket and increase the reach of your excavator. For most applications, Nye recommends direct pin-on mounting with increased pin centers for durability and improved digging forces.
Standard bucket linkages and cylinders are available and are usually one size class smaller than the base machine depending on jib length and application.
All Nye Jibs are built with QT100 structural steel for maximum strength and minimum weight.
