Light Versus Heavy Duty Tractor Buckets
Light material buckets and heavy-duty buckets are designed for different purposes and have some key differences.
Here are some of the main differences between the two...
Light Material Buckets:
- Intended for handling of light-weight materials such as grain, forage materials, wood chips, mulch, and snow.
- Made of materials such as aluminum or polyethylene, which are lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
- Have a larger capacity than heavy-duty buckets, allowing for the handling of more material at once.
- Generally less durable than heavy-duty buckets and not designed for handling heavy or abrasive materials.
Heavy-Duty Buckets:
- Designed for handling larger, heavier materials such as chopped wood, large stones, and chunks of concrete.
- Made of high-strength steel such as Hardox 450 or Grade 50 steel, which is extremely durable and resistant to wear and tear.
- More durable than light material buckets and can handle more abrasive material.
- Generally have a smaller capacity than light material buckets, but can handle heavier loads.
It's important to choose the right type of bucket for the job to ensure maximum efficiency and productivity. Light material buckets are ideal for handling light materials, while heavy-duty buckets are designed for handling heavier, more abrasive materials.
