About this product
Overview
This Bradco skid steer high dump bucket discharges over the side of a truck or hopper without raising the loader arms to full height. It comes in 60", 72", 84" and 96" widths weighing 1,000 to 1,359 lbs, and mounts on a standard skid steer quick attach. It is the only bucket in the Bradco range with a powered dumping action, which is what the extra weight buys.
Key Features of the Bradco Skid Steer High Dump Bucket
- Hydraulic high-dump action — the bucket extends and tips rather than simply rolling forward.
- Widths 60", 72", 84" and 96" at 1,000 to 1,359 lbs.
- High strength steel construction.
- Various sizes and edge hole patterns with common bolt-on wear edges available.
- Optional hose length kit with 1/2" couplers included.
- A high tip bucket that reaches over a truck side — a skid steer dump bucket for loading rather than carrying.
- The 96 inch high dump bucket is the widest here; a high dump bucket for skid steer loading is chosen on discharge height first and width second.
- A hydraulic dump bucket rather than a mechanical one — this skid steer high dump attachment is the only powered bucket in the Bradco range.
- A high lift bucket in practice: the discharge point is what rises, not the loader arms.
Why Choose This Skid Steer High Dump Bucket
- Dump height is the whole reason. A standard bucket at full lift often still discharges below a truck side; this one reaches over it.
- It is heavy, and that is the trade. At 1,000–1,359 lbs it takes a substantial bite out of rated capacity, so it earns its place only where dump height is genuinely the constraint.
- It needs hydraulics. Unlike every other bucket in this range, the dump action is powered — check you have an auxiliary circuit free.

Bradco builds seven bucket types. They are not grades of one bucket — each is built for a different material or a different problem, so the question is what you are moving rather than how heavy-duty you need.

For high volumes of light material, the light material bucket carries more per pass. For a clamshell that also grapples and dozes, the 4-in-1 bucket is the multi-tool option.
Which Machines Fit This Skid Steer High Dump Bucket?
This bucket fits a standard skid steer quick attach and — unlike the other buckets in the range — requires an auxiliary hydraulic circuit to power the dump. At 1,000–1,359 lbs empty it is the heaviest bucket Bradco offers here, so check your rated operating capacity against the bucket plus a full load.

SS High-Dump Bucket Questions, Answered
Why choose a high dump bucket?
Dump height. A standard bucket at full lift often discharges below the side of a truck; a high-dump extends and tips to clear it.
Does it need hydraulics?
Yes. It is the only bucket in this Bradco range with a powered function, so an auxiliary circuit is required. Every other bucket here is purely mechanical.
How much capacity does the weight cost me?
At 1,000-1,359 lbs empty it is roughly 1,000–1,359 lbs heavier than a construction bucket of similar width. That comes off your rated capacity before the load does.
What is the hose length kit for?
It supplies hoses to reach the auxiliary circuit, with 1/2 inch couplers included. It is an option rather than standard, so confirm whether you need it.
Will it dump into a standard tipper?
That is what it is designed for. Confirm your truck side height against your loader's lift height plus the bucket's extended discharge, since the combination is what determines clearance.
How is shipping calculated?
