Buckets for the excavator

Excavator buckets are one of the most important equipment elements of these machines used for earthworks and construction. There are different types of excavator buckets available, depending on their purpose and the type of work being performed.

• The most commonly used categories of excavator buckets are:
• Digging buckets - the most basic type of excavator buckets used for digging soil, excavating and laying pipelines. They are available in different sizes, depending on the size and power of the excavator.


• Tilt buckets - buckets with a V-shaped notch used for moving soil on slopes and embankments. Thanks to this shape, the tilt bucket enables effective removal of soil from areas with varying terrain.


• Crushing buckets - buckets with additional teeth used for crushing large blocks of concrete or asphalt. These buckets are usually used for demolition work and related to crushing construction waste.


• Grab buckets - special buckets equipped with hydraulic clamps that allow lifting and moving various materials, such as pipes, beams, or prefabricated elements.


• Load buckets - buckets with a larger capacity used for loading soil, stones, and other materials onto trucks and lorries.

When choosing excavator buckets, several factors should be taken into account, such as the size and power of the excavator, the type of work being performed, the type of material to be moved, and the terrain conditions. Well-chosen excavator buckets will increase work efficiency, reduce costs and time of work, and ensure safety on the construction site.
