Heavy duty bucket for ‘first-cut earth’. Best primary digging bucket for heavy duty job applications up to 3,000 lbs. per cubic yard.
The flat-bottom design slices into first-cut earth, minimizing wear on tires and drive train while reducing fuel consumption and cycle time.
The ACS General Purpose Bucket is designed to rehandle material up to 3,000 lbs per cubic yard. A short list of common materials:
Heavy wear areas are designed to be separate components of the bucket anatomy, so when they finally do need replaced, you can do so cleanly, more easily and achieve “like-new” results.
Heavy wear areas are constructed with premium-grade AR 400 steel for maximum impact and abrasion resistance. AR 400 steel has a minimum BNH (Brinell Hardness Number) of 360 and is valued for its durability and strong resistance to abrasion.
Comes installed with beveled, wear-resistant steel edge that takes the brunt of all first-contact impacts. Double-sided for twice extended life; when one side wears down, simply turn it around to expose the fresh edge.
Enable your bucket to dig more aggressively by puncturing and loosening handled material before the bucket edge digs in with bolt-on teeth. ACS offers a wide array of tooth brands and tooth duty options.
ACS will precision drill your bucket to accept OEM or ACS wear parts.
Factory installed latch hooks are located on the top lip of the bucket to give you a safe, reliable way to lift objects with a chain. Installed package includes additional reinforcement plates and a hook with a sturdy safety latch. Hooks are rated at 5 or 10 tons as determined by loader’s lift capabilities. Can be installed in a quantity of 1, 2 or 3 to a bucket.
Prevents material from spilling towards the loader while in full roll-back and protects hydraulic lines and linkage from damage by falling debris.
Configurations are available for standard pin-on across all major equipment manufacturers. Coupler compatible versions are available for ACS Pro Series 2000 and JRB 416/418 female coupler standards.
