Jobsites with tough, abrasive materials require an attachment that's been specifically designed to withstand such use.

The Heavy Duty Buckets for Cat® Mini Hydraulic Excavators have been built to excel in the toughest environments. Available in capacities from 48 L to a huge 388 L, they're ideal for utility trenching, digging footings, back-filling and general excavating in construction, landscaping and utility applications.

Well-suited to semi-rocky soil, or where hard bank material must be broken out and removed, the pin-on design ensures secure, reliable mounting that can handle the increased forces generated when working in challenging ground conditions. The robust construction features reinforced stress points and premium wear materials throughout to deliver exceptional durability in demanding applications.

The advanced bucket design incorporates a formed back wrapper that maximizes material loading capacity to significantly boost your team's productivity, even when handling heavy, abrasive materials. The optimized wrapper eliminates sharp corners and maintains the ideal angle to allow for complete bucket filling while preventing material from packing inside the bucket. This innovative design allows excavated material to flow smoothly during loading and dump cleanly -  even when handling sticky or cohesive soils mixed with rocky debris.
