The Attach2 Heli-Tilt Coupler - Next-Level Versatility for Your Excavator

When it comes to maximising the productivity of your excavator, the right attachment can make all the difference. The Attach2 Heli-Tilt Coupler is engineered to transform your machine into a multi-tasking powerhouse, delivering universal tilt, rapid attachment changes, and robust performance in even the toughest site conditions.

So what makes the Heli-Tilt Coupler stand out?

  • Universal tilt capability: The Heli-Tilt Coupler is all about making your machine and your team more adaptable.  Offering up to 180° of tilt (90° each way), it allows operators to precisely angle buckets, rippers, grabs, and more. This flexibility means you can tackle grading, shaping, and complex site work with ease - no need for extra machines or manual rework.  

  • Fast, simple attachment changes: We know that time spent swapping attachments is time you’re not working. Thanks to the Sure-Grip quick coupler system, switching between tools is fast and safe - no tilt hoses to swap, and no time wasted. The system is ISO13031 compliant, ensuring the highest safety standards on every job.  

  • Slim, heavy-duty design: We’ve kept the design slim and low-profile, so you get better visibility and easier access where it matters most - especially when accessing tight or narrow workspaces. Its S690 (BIS80) steel construction stands up to heavy use and harsh conditions, and the multi-pin centre pickup allows you to use a wide range of attachments within the same size range.  

  • Smart hydraulic engineering: For operators and owners, reliability and simplicity are key. An integrated manifold (on models under 10T) and relief valve simplify installation and protect your machine’s hydraulics. For larger machines (11T+), a GPS-ready bracket makes control setup easier and more secure.  

Practical benefits for your business 

✓ Do more with less: Boost ROI by doing more with one machine and operator, completing a wider range of jobs without needing extra gear or crew. 

✓ Save on labour & fuel costs: Get work done faster with fewer passes, saving on operator hours, fuel use, and overheads. 

✓ Cost-effective tilt solution: Gain advanced tilt performance at a much lower cost than full tilt rotators. 

✓ Built for safety and compliance:  The Heli-Tilt Coupler meets or exceeds all major Australian, New Zealand, and European safety standards (AS4772-2008, EN474-5, ISO 13031:2016).

Safety is at the heart of everything we do. By meeting these major standards, the coupler also includes robust safety features like dual locking, clear operator instructions, and daily/weekly maintenance checklists. It saves operators time and increases safety on the worksite by enabling quick attachment changes without having to leave the cab, helping you to operate with peace of mind. 

Maintenance and support you can rely on 

Designed for straightforward maintenance, with easy-access greasing points and clear visual checks, our goal is always to help you keep your equipment running smoothly. Our comprehensive manual includes troubleshooting guides and a maintenance log, and if you ever need further support, our team is here to help.

We back the Heli-Tilt Coupler with a 3-year or 3000-hour limited warranty (whichever comes first), reflecting our commitment to your investment and success. 

Don’t just take it from us - hear what our customers have to say 

"I can’t deviate too far from a decent hitch regarding barrels. I think it’s about the pin centre range and reliability too. To me the Heli-Tilt has got it in one, hands down.” ~ Ian McKenzie, earth gear. 

“We hadn’t used a Heli-Tilt before, as soon as we put the tilt on the machine, we found out how good it was, great pieces of equipment.” ~ Rick Williams, Akron Civil & Drainage. 

“What I like about the Heli-Tilt is the wide range of movement - having that versatility allows us to scrape batters a bit steeper or perhaps lay a culvert easier. It enables us to be more efficient when creating a finished product for our customers. We can complete things faster and move on to the next project. You can even push posts into the ground with them. It’s a bit of technique, but you can do a bunch of things with a Heli-Tilt that don’t normally come to mind.” ~ Justin Sinton, Sinton Contracting. 

“The support's been great so far. Since I’ve had the [Heli-Tilt] hitches put on my excavators for the last ten years, they have been working great for me. It's all quality. Attach2 has made a good, good attachment.” ~ Daniel Cullen, ETS Earthworks.
