Investing in quality

When it comes to buying an excavator attachment it can seem daunting when looking at the prices. You may be questioning why would I pay this price when there are cheaper options available? An important place to start, is asking what are excavator attachments and what are they going to be used for?

Excavator attachments and their uses

Excavator attachments are highly specialised tools which attach to an excavator to perform different tasks in various industries. There are many different types of attachments but here are some of the most common ones you’ll come across:

  • Hydraulic Hammer/Breaker – This attachment is used in the construction, demolition and quarrying industries. Its primary purpose is to break down concrete, rock and other hard surfaces.
  • Selector Grabs – A selector grab is a very versatile attachment and can be found in the waste recycling, demolition, construction and land clearance industries. They are used for lifting and moving materials or pulling down buildings in demolition.
  • Rotating Pulveriser – These attachments are used for primary and secondary demolition, concrete pulverising and material processing. They are mainly used in the demolition industry.
  • Compactor – Compactors are used for compacting soil and other materials in preparation for construction.
  • Screening buckets – These attachments allow you to screen and separate materials whilst on site for various purposes such as re-use and salvaging.

Why invest?

Using the examples above it’s clear that they need to be strong, reliable and up for the demanding work that is required of them. Even high quality and well-made attachments become worn down over time and require maintenance to keep them running smoothly. On the other hand, cheaply made attachments are often more likely to break down, less efficient and may be harder to find replacement parts for. This can result in them becoming rather expensive, not to mention the cost of downtime.

With that in mind it’s clear that buying an attachment for you excavator isn’t a decision that should be taken lightly. It requires you to do your research to make sure you are getting an attachment that is going to serve you and your business well. Is it worth saving money initially and going for a cheaper option that may only last a short time before having to buy another one? Or do you make the investment and go with a brand that is built around quality and reliability?

If you decide to make the investment it can have a significant impact on your operations and how productive and efficient they are. Choosing quality made attachments comes with the peace of mind that they are built to last and get the job done effectively. This can have positive knock-on effects for your business such as increased customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.

Another added benefit of buying a high-quality attachment is that the supplier will offer a much longer warranty so you’re covered if anything was to happen. At BPH Attachments we go beyond a warranty and offer you constant support and care if an issue were to arise.
