Applications: Excavating shot rock, sharp sand and loose abrasive materials. Not recommended for severe prying applications.
Construction: Rock buckets are constructed with thicker AR400 material in the wear areas which include: the back, bottom wear-straps or double back, side wear-plates, cutting edge and side cutters (stiffeners). The side cutters run the full height of the bucket and can be drilled to accept bolt on side-cutters and wear-shrouds. Rock buckets feature upsized ground engaging tools (teeth).
Design: Rock buckets incorporate a three taper “c” shape design to eliminate binding and provide maximum capacity. The profile of the Rock bucket makes it very easy to fill and dump while maintaining a short pin to tip radius for maximum break out force.
