GP buckets are the everyday digging option
A GP bucket is the default choice for general excavation, loading and material handling. It suits mixed work where the operator needs a strong digging bucket before moving to more specialised attachments.
- Best for general digging, loading and all-round site work.
- Teeth and cutting edge condition have a big effect on productivity.
- Useful when you need one bucket to cover several everyday jobs.
Mud and tilt buckets are finishing tools
Mud buckets move more loose or wet material and leave cleaner surfaces. Tilt buckets add angle control for batters, drains, slopes and finishing work where moving the machine repeatedly wastes time.
- Mud buckets suit soft material, bulk clean-up and grading.
- Tilt buckets help with slopes, batters and finishing around levels.
- Width should match the machine and the work rather than chasing maximum capacity.
Sieve, trenching and rake buckets solve specific jobs
Specialty buckets are worth considering when the task repeats often. Sieve buckets sort rock and soil, trenching buckets cut narrow lines, and rake buckets help with roots, clearing and debris separation.
- Sieve buckets help separate materials before loading or reuse.
- Trenching buckets suit pipes, conduits, drainage and narrow excavation.
- Rake buckets help with clearing, roots and bulky debris.
