The latest in the Nye Manufacturing family of excavator attachments is an 8-foot parallel-link stick extension. With no cutting, welding or extra hydraulics required, the high-strength-steel Nye dipper extension simply pins to the end of an excavator's OEM stick for additional reach on such jobs as deep excavating, demolition and dredging. Nye produces parallel-link stick extension models for excavators ranging 15 to 100 tons.
