Although I do NOT reccomend these people in any way at all, this one:

Right now they owe me 3800 for a faulty flail, which is going through 'chargeback'....

 

Edit: it says ''1 to 3 ton'' - it'd make a 1.5ton digger fall over without lifting anything. Beware.

Ah, I see. I only asked as it looks a little less of a stack height than the Baltrotor GR55FF that most people, myself included, end up with on this size machine.

 

I have a pecker and compactor plate from them, they did me a good deal but thats only because Hugo in a previous life sold me a bucket for a 1.5t that was really 3 ton sized. Luckily I now have a three tonner so after five years on the shelf it's finally getting used... You're not the first on here to say that the JB grab is heavy, I'd always urge people to go Intermecatto instead.

 

I'm in the process of setting up a lighter grab/rotator combo for my E19. It handles the E27 Tigertrip 16SR5 combo well (I specced short dipper) but due to a large contract it's worth having one of it's own that hopefully will be a bit bitter matched. I've ordered a Tigergrip TG12SR5 (60kgs) from Approved Hydraulics, and one of these rotators which are a good 80mm shorter than the GR55FF that I'd otherwise be using. Will report back once it's all arrived and plumbed up.

The rotators listed are exceptional quality.

That's an interesting company to know.
