Excavator Buckets
Protect your fleet. Perform more.
Zone Introduction
Excavator buckets handle aggressive digging, loading & dumping operations.
They are in constant contact with abrasive soil, rocks, slag or sinter, experiencing severe impact + gouging.
High wear reduces bucket capacity and increases fuel consumption.
Process Description
During excavation:
- Large sharp rocks strike edges → Impact + gouging
- Continuous loading & sliding → Abrasive wear
- Moisture + slurry buildup → Corrosion
- Fatigue cracks form at welds → Structural failure
Cutting edges and side walls weaken rapidly in harsh environments.
Areas of Wear & Root Causes
Bucket lip & side edges → Harsh gouging
Internal liners → Sliding wear
Heel plates → drag abrasion
Performance Loss & Downtime Impact
More fuel needed for same load
Frequent lip repairs → Long downtime
Reduced bucket life → Higher spares cost
Recommended Products & Benefits
- High impact & abrasion protection
- Reinforces wear-critical geometry
- Replaceable edge protection
- Easy maintenance in-field
