LOADER HEAVY DUTY BUCKET
The rock bucket for wheel loaders is a heavy-duty attachment for transporting rocky and abrasive materials. Manufactured rock buckets are made of reinforced steel and additional wear-resistant features to withstand the harsh conditions and high impact forces that come with working in quarries, mines and other rock excavation environments.

Unlike a general-purpose bucket, a rock bucket has additional wear plates strategically placed in areas more prone to wear and tear, such as the bottom of the bucket and the sides near the cutting edges, to help break up hard, compressed material. Rock buckets are often equipped with teeth along the front edge of the bucket that help grip and penetrate hard materials such as rock, shale or coral.
Rock buckets come in a variety of sizes, widths and configurations to fit different wheel loader models and job requirements. They are commonly used in mining, quarrying and construction applications that require heavy load loading and transportation of large, dense materials.
