Cat® High Capacity Buckets for Backhoe Loaders are precision-engineered to maximize material handling productivity in applications involving lower density soils and light materials.

These specialized attachments excel in landscaping projects, agricultural applications, waste management, and construction sites working with sand, topsoil, mulch, and similar lightweight materials that require high-volume material movement rather than aggressive digging performance.

Available in six comprehensive sizes ranging from more compact 16-inch widths with 5.7 ft³ capacity to robust 36-inch configurations for 16.2 ft³ capacity, these buckets are designed to maximize payload while maintaining optimal machine balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What applications are High Capacity Buckets best suited for?
High Capacity Buckets are specifically designed for lower density soils and light materials including topsoil, sand, mulch, agricultural materials, and waste handling applications. These buckets excel in landscaping projects, site preparation work, and any application where maximizing material volume per cycle is more important than aggressive digging force

What is the difference between pin on and pin lock?
These High Capacity Buckets are available with either pin on or pin lock. Pin on is a traditional attachment method where the bucket is secured directly to the machine’s arm using manually installed pins. Pin lock is a quick‑coupler system - available in manual, semi‑automatic, or hydraulic versions - that locks onto the bucket using a pin‑lock mechanism, enabling much faster attachment changes.

Both have their place, and are completely dependent on your budget, project requirements and machinery.
