The attachments shown below are available for most loaders.  

General Purpose Bucket

Standard – General purpose loader buckets are for use with materials ranging in density between 1800-3000 lbs./Yd³.  The design includes a thicker bucket shell to give extended life for the higher density materials being handled.  Best for light-duty needs but rugged enough for many heavy-duty applications.

Heavy Duty – HD loader buckets are for use with materials ranging in density between 2250-3000 lbs./Yd.  This design includes the use of Hardox 400/450 Wear Plate in the bucket shell and cutting edges to provide extended life in more abrasive applications.

Material Handling bucket

Material handling buckets are designed to be used when moving already processed materials such as aggregate or sand.  Used for truck loading, loading of crushers or screeners, stockpiling or load and carry.  Built to match your loader’s capacity.  These buckets can be equipped with either a straight edge or a spade edge with an optional bolt-on cutting edge.

Severe Duty Rock Buckets

Rock Buckets are built for severe duty applications such as mining or quarries.  Designed for structural strength and wear resistance in the most extreme conditions – our design emphasis is placed on durability for the specified use.  Built with Hardox 450/500 wear plate, these buckets can also be equipped with liners.  These are available in Spade nose, semi-spade or straight cutting edges.

Spade Nose

Spade nose Rock Buckets are for primary loading of shot rock with the highest penetration capability.

Straight Edge

Straight edge Rock Buckets have a higher break-out capability for digging in piles and primary loading of shot rock.

Light Material Bucket

Light material buckets are for use with low density materials (less than 1800 lb/Yd³) like grain, wood chips, etc. Reduced bucket material weights allow for higher loading capacity.  Typically used in landscaping, compost, food processing and waste management applications.
