The perfect combination of strength, simplicity, and versatility.
The Amulet B.R.U.T. (Best Rigid Universal Thumb) is the ultimate solution for backhoe loader and small excavator owners who need a durable, easy-to-install thumb attachment without the complexity of hydraulics. Designed for maximum performance and reliability, the B.R.U.T. delivers exceptional control and strength for demolition, rip rap, land clearing, and scrap handling applications.
Part of Amulet’s proven CT Series, the B.R.U.T. features a Convertible Thumb design — allowing you to start with a rigid, 4-position model and upgrade to hydraulic operation later by simply replacing the telescopic strut with a hydraulic cylinder. This flexible design makes it an affordable, long-term investment for operators who value versatility and efficiency.
When not in use, the thumb folds tightly against the dipper arm as a complete unit, keeping it out of the way and protected.
Please specify the make and model of your excavator when placing an order so our team can ensure you receive the correct fit for your machine.
