Available in three shell thicknesses — 1/8" (light duty), 3/16" (standard), and 1/4" (heavy duty). Choose at checkout based on your work cycle and machine capacity. Heavier shells handle harder material, more wear cycles, and bigger machines.

Do you offer rush fabrication?
Sometimes — call 416-220-8550 to discuss your timeline.
What’s the difference between trenching, grading, and skeleton buckets?
Trenching buckets are narrow with high break-out force for clean wall finish in utility and footing work. Grading buckets are wide with a straight cutting edge for finish work, backfilling, and site cleanup. Skeleton buckets sift material on the fly — ideal for rock and root separation in landscaping.
