About the general-purpose bucket

A toothed digging bucket for ordinary soil, sand and loose material. Use it for excavation, backfilling and routine loading where severe abrasion is not the main concern.

Features & benefits

01

Tapered bucket profile

The tapered shell increases bucket depth and supports loading of soil and loose material.

02

Side cutters protect the frame

Cutters at both sides protect the shell edges during digging.

03

Teeth and adapters

The ground-engaging parts penetrate ordinary soil and help gather material during excavation.

04

Standard digging construction

The standard plate arrangement is intended for clay, sand and other soft material with little large rock or debris.

Typical applications

Bucket digging and loading soil
  • Foundation excavationExcavate ordinary clay and soil for foundations and general construction.
  • Sand and gravel loadingGather and transfer sand, loose soil and suitable gravel in light-duty loading work.
  • General site earthworkCarry out routine digging and material handling on construction and road projects.

Installation requirements

Confirm this bucket fits your excavator

Send your excavator make, model and operating weight, together with clear photos or a drawing of the mounting interface.

Generic pin-on interface. Check the selected mounting method and the actual machine drawing.
  1. Machine identification — excavator make, model and operating weight.

  2. Pin dimensions — measure both pin diameters and the centre-to-centre distance in millimetres.

  3. Mounting interface — inside width between mounting ears; pin-on or quick-coupler connection.

  4. Working clearance — check bucket width, capacity and clearance throughout the operating movement.

Using a quick coupler? Include its make, model and interface drawing. Confirm dimensions against the actual machine and attachment drawing.

Product questions

General-purpose bucket questions

How does a general-purpose bucket differ from a rock bucket?

A general-purpose bucket is intended for ordinary soil and loose material. A rock bucket places more emphasis on the tooth system, structure and protection in high-wear areas.

Can the mounting be matched to my excavator?

Send the excavator model, both pin diameters, pin centre distance and mounting width, or the exact coupler interface. The connection must be reviewed as a complete set.

How do I choose the working width or capacity?

Match the required width or capacity to the work area, material and excavator limits. Check attachment weight and operating clearance alongside the dimensions.

Which mounting information should accompany an enquiry?

Include the machine make and model, both pin diameters, pin centre distance and clear inside mounting width, or the specified quick-coupler interface drawing.
