1130 Bobcat continues to broaden the versatility of its machines with a new line of dipper stick mounted hydraulic clamp attachments for its 1-60tonne mini-excavators. The clamps are offered in long and short versions to fit Bobcat buckets mounted on excavators with Pin-on, Klac or Lehnhoff attachment systems.

They are designed for applications involving picking and placing of objects with Bobcat mini-excavators. When used with a trenching bucket, the hydraulic clamp allows an operator to grasp, lift and place broken concrete or asphalt, stone blocks and other objects.

Available in weights from 27-115kg, the clamp attachments can be extended so they are out of the way when not required, and are said to be particularly useful for demolition and road repair tasks: they can be used to pick up debris and load it into trucks.
