Super
Heavy Duty Construction – Nye QAU (Quick Attach Unit)
pin-grabber style couplers are designed for severe service in
the most extreme construction, demolition and quarry
applications.
- Super
thick front hooks - Resist flexing and provide extra wide
pin contact area. (Nye exclusive)
- Alloy
Steel - 120,000 psi quenched and tempered alloy steel front
hooks eliminate deformation and breaking. (Nye exclusive)
-
Advanced geometry - Each hook is profiled to hold the pin on
two lines of contact providing a stable coupling that does not
worry and wear the bucket pins. (Nye exclusive)
- Double
slotted hooks - Rear hooks are milled, providing 4 oversize
flat sliding surfaces to endure the harshest pounding in dusty,
gritty conditions. (Nye exclusive)
- Alloy
clamping screw – Oversized alloy main clamping screw is
virtually un-strippable. Provides years of trouble free, safe
operation. (Nye exclusive)
- Base
Plate Design – Eye plates and hooks are welded to a common
foundation base plate eliminating breakage due to clumsy weld
joints used on staggered side plate designs.
- Easy
to Service – The clamping screw, locking mechanism and main
nut are easy to service without special tools or equipment.
There are no slider pins to service, no inspection covers to
remove and no springs, linkages or roll pins on the coupler.
(Nye exclusive)
- Easy
Installation – Just pin the coupler onto your machine with
the factory bucket pins. Coupler is manually operated; no
hydraulic or electrical installation is required.
- Simple
operation – Couple, uncouple and lock the coupler with one
socket wrench (provided). There are no locking plates or
fasteners to fumble with and loose. (Nye exclusive)
-
Redundant safety – All Nye couplers feature a manually
inserted safety bar that eliminates any chance of accidental
uncoupling.
- Open
Design – Un-shrouded rear hooks provide excellent visibility
for inspection and operator verification of hook engagement.
Dirt and stones fall away and do not get impacted.
-
Lifting Lugs – Integral lifting lugs provide a convenient
shackle point for heavy lifting.
-
Guaranteed – Like all our products, the Nye Mechanical QAU
is guaranteed to please and covered by our limited warrantee.
