Performance and Versatility

Buckets are designed to provide superior productivity, high reliability, and long life in a variety of materials and conditions. An enhanced bucket shape allows the material to flow more easily, and the tapered bucket sidewalls allow for easy dumping of sticky material. Wear strips and routers extend the bucket wear life and increase durability.

Backhoe ground engaging tools are machine-matched and designed to enhance the productivity of the buckets in a variety of applications.

The diagonal retention system features a 40-degree pin retention angle, allowing for close spacing of the teeth and easy installation and removal of tips.

Serviceability

The fork is easily replaceable to extend bucket life, simplify servicing and reduce downtime.

The system offers different tips for different applications, including sharp, chisel, long, soil digging, penetration, twin sharp, and wide tips.

Heavy Duty Rock Buckets: Available in five widths, all with standard Diagonal Retention System adapters and teeth. They are specifically designed to work in the harsh rocky conditions found in various regions of the world.

High Capacity Buckets: Available in four pin-on widths and six pin-lock widths and are especially well suited for work in lower density soils and light materials. They have the same durable characteristics as heavy-duty buckets but are capable of moving greater volumes.

Soil Excavation Buckets: Available in four widths, they have heavy-duty characteristics with higher capacity, for use in a variety of conditions including heavy impact. The more aggressive adapter nose angle combined with the new tip design provides enhanced productivity in all soils, plus longer wear and sharpness in rocky areas.
