Q: How to choose a used quick coupler for your excavator?

To choose the right used quick coupler , start by checking your excavator’s weight and pin diameter, as these determine equipment compatibility. Ensure the part comes from a reputable seller who inspects their products before sale. Also verify the visual condition of the locking system and, if possible, request the part’s history.

Q: Mechanical or hydraulic quick coupler: which to choose?

The mechanical quick coupler is more affordable and suited for sites where tool changes are infrequent, as locking is done manually from the ground. The hydraulic coupler allows changing tools from the cab, which saves real time on busy sites. If your machine isn’t equipped with a dedicated hydraulic circuit, the mechanical version remains the simplest solution to adopt.

Q: What are the advantages of a used quick coupler versus a new one?

The main advantage of a used quick coupler is its significantly lower price compared to a new part—often 40% to 60% less expensive—representing substantial savings for construction companies. Used models from major brands offer proven durability in the field. At Codimatra, every part is inspected before sale, allowing confident purchases without compromising reliability.
