Nye Ripper Buckets have earned a reputation for extreme service in hard shale. We have perfected the ripper bucket in terms of profile and tooth position for larger machines . These buckets consistently outperform “V” type buckets of all makes, allowing the operator to rip and load in one operation.
If you are working in shale you need a Nye Ripper Bucket.

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.

Nye HP (High Performance) buckets are designed to boost production. Nye HP buckets are built with thinner, stronger heat-treated alloy steels so they are very light, allowing faster cycle times. Designed specifically for basement contractors working in light to moderate conditions.
Heavy-Duty – buckets are built with extra thick materials in all wear areas and are designed for severe rock and shale applications where extra impact and abrasion resistance is required.
Nye has likely built more custom rippers for different machines than any other attachment manufacturer. Our extra heavy, virtually unbreakable rippers are available with various shank lengths, and tooth configurations, with ripping geometry optimized for frost, rock and shale. The “MOAR” is a new extra-heavy ripper concept designed to increase penetration. Our patented Swing-Tooth ripper was designed for trenching in shale and frozen ground, the shank is self-locking and requires no hydraulics. The RRW “Warhead” Trenching Ripper is our latest innovation, featuring a heavy frame with rear mounted side-fangs for deep trenching in bedrock, with no moving parts.
