Ditch Clean-Out Buckets
ACS Ditch Clean-out Buckets are wider than general digging buckets and have a shorter tip radius to increase productivity when reaching the excavator arm to it’s maximum distance - especially useful when using longer booms.
This bucket is ideal for cleaning out ditches, drainage canals, mucking ponds and lakes and other roadside maintenance. It is typically installed on both tracked and wheeled excavators with either standard length or long-reach sticks. No teeth are installed to allow the bucket to leave a smooth bottom surface.
Highlights
• Single-radius shell. Provides superior loading and cleaning.
• Sloped bottom. The bottom of the bucket slopes up and away from the dig direction to facilitate ‘boiling’, the circulation of handled material that prevents sticking and allows for faster loading. The sloped bottom also reduces heel wear.
• High strength steel base.
• Built to OEM specifications. Ear groups designed to match the dimensions of all major excavator manufacturers.
• Tapered sides. Allow the cutting edge do all the work and keep the sides and bottom away from hard contact to reduce drag and unnessecary use of horsepower.
• Dual reinforced header. Zero flex means a full transfer of force from the stick to the cutting edge and longer bucket life.
• Reversible Bolt-On Wear Edge. Protects the built-in base edge. It comes with two sides so when one eventually wears down a new edge can be quickly applied by simply reversing the plate.
• Optional Drainage perforations - Provide fast escape routes for unwanted liquid in the payload
