LaBounty Attachments Awarded U.S. Patent for Innovative Indexable Piercing Tip Technology
LaBounty Attachments, a leading manufacturer of scrap recycling and demolition attachments, proudly announces the issuance of U.S. Patent No. US 12,325,079 B2 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). This patent, granted on June 10, 2025, recognizes LaBounty’s latest innovation in mobile scrap shear technology.
This patent reflects the ingenuity and dedication of our engineering team, said Kevin Navarro, Senior Product Manager at LaBounty Attachments. It’s a practical, field-driven innovation that enhances performance and durability for our customers in the scrap and demolition industries.
The patented invention introduces the industry's only full-boot indexable piercing tip that mounts to the nose of the upper jaw on heavy-duty demolition and . Designed to enclose and protect the top, bottom, front, and both side surfaces of the nose, the piercing tip features two sets of piercing and shearing edges. When the first set becomes dull or worn, the tip can be rotated 180 degrees to present a second, fresh set, significantly extending the tool’s operational life and reducing downtime.
This advancement underscores LaBounty’s commitment to delivering rugged, reliable, and forward-thinking solutions that meet the evolving demands of the field. The indexable piercing tip is expected to improve operational efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and support safer, more productive job sites.
