Skid Steer Grain Bucket - Top Dog Attachments

📘 Overview

The Top Dog skid steer grain bucket is a high capacity light material bucket with greater roll-back than a standard bucket, which is what keeps granular product from spilling over the front edge when you lift and carry. Three widths are offered — 72", 84" and 96" — at 31" overall height with 45" inside depth, considerably deeper and taller than a dirt bucket because grain and fertilizer are light enough that volume, not weight, is the limit. Capacity runs 1.34 to 1.79 cubic yards, with a 5/8" x 6" A50 steel edge and an optional bolt-on edge available on all three.

A grain bucket is really a light material bucket with one critical difference from a standard skid steer bucket: roll-back. Anyone handling dry granular product knows the failure mode — a bucket that carries fine without incident until you lift, and then loses the top of the load over the front edge. As a fertilizer bucket or feed bucket the same geometry applies. Because skid steer bucket capacity here is limited by volume rather than weight, this is a high capacity skid steer bucket by design rather than by ambition.

⚙ Key Features of the Top Dog Attachments Grain Bucket

• Greater roll-back range — the bucket tips further back than a standard bucket — the single feature that stops granular material spilling over the front edge in transit.
• 45" inside depth — far deeper than a dirt bucket, because light material fills volume before it reaches weight capacity.
• 1.34 to 1.79 cubic yard capacity — high volume sizing appropriate to grain, fertilizer and other light granular product.
• 5/8" x 6" A50 steel bucket edge — full thickness edge despite the light material duty — it still has to scrape a bin floor.
• Optional bolt-on cutting edge — available on all three widths; replaceable when worn.
• 31" overall height — tall sides retain granular material that a low bucket would spill.
• Three widths, 72" to 96" — sized from 700 lbs to 870 lbs empty.

🔑 Why Choose the Grain Bucket?

• Carries grain without spilling it — the extra roll-back is the difference between arriving with a full bucket and leaving a trail across the yard.
• Moves volume, not weight — at up to 1.79 cu yd the bucket is sized for material where volume runs out before your loader’s capacity does.
• Scrapes a bin floor clean — the A50 edge handles concrete contact that light material work still demands.
• One bucket for grain, fertilizer and feed — the same high-capacity shape suits any dry granular product.

🔗 What Is a Skid Steer Grain Bucket Used For?

• Moving grain in and out of storage
• Handling fertilizer and granular product
• Loading feed and light bulk material
• Cleaning out bins and sheds
• Any light granular material where volume matters more than weight

For wet or heavy material the standard dirt or utility buckets are the better choice — the grain bucket’s volume would exceed most loaders’ lift capacity if filled with something dense.

🚜 Which Machines Fit the Grain Bucket?

Available for two machine classes — the Grain Bucket uses a single universal quick attach plate that serves both:

Skid steers and compact track loaders — fits machines with a Universal Quick Attach (SSQA) mount, including:

Compact tractor front-end loaders — fits tractor loaders fitted with a skid-steer-style universal quick attach coupler. Loaders using Euro/Global or John Deere 400/500 mounts require the matching Top Dog adapter plate (Euro 90133219, Euro 2-piece 90133229, JD flat 9033199, JD offset 90133228).

Compatibility is determined by mount type, not brand — confirm your machine’s quick attach configuration before ordering.
