Product Description
Werk-Brau Severe Duty Ditching & Grading Bucket | Width 48" To 84" | 12–50 Tons | For Excavators
DESCRIPTION
Built for demanding excavation, the Werk-Brau Severe Duty Ditching & Grading Bucket is engineered for ditch maintenance, slope work, grading, and final shaping on full-size excavators. Constructed with T-1 steel in high-wear components, it provides exceptional durability and long service life under demanding jobsite conditions. The severe-duty design adds a reinforced double bottom, side wear guards, and center rib for increased structural strength. A rigid top section improves stability on wider buckets, while tapered side plates help reduce wear and promote easier dumping. Standard bolt-on cutting edges protect the bucket edge during extended operation, while optional drain holes support aquatic applications. Available in 48–84 inch widths with capacities from 0.64 to 3.81 cu. yd., this bucket delivers dependable performance for professional excavation and grading applications.
Key Features
- Severe-Duty Construction Designed for higher-stress excavation applications, the severe-duty configuration provides additional reinforcement for demanding ditching, grading, and slope work.
- T-1 Steel Components Manufactured with T-1 steel in high-wear areas to improve durability, abrasion resistance, and long operating life in demanding excavation environments.
- Reinforced Double Bottom The double-bottom design adds structural strength and helps the bucket withstand repeated loading, grading, and material-handling stresses.
- Side Wear Guards Integrated side wear guards help protect vulnerable bucket areas against abrasion and jobsite wear during prolonged excavation operations.
- Center Rib Reinforcement The center rib strengthens the bucket structure and helps support consistent performance when handling demanding grading and ditch-maintenance applications.
- Rigid Top Section A rigid top section provides structural stability, particularly on wider bucket configurations used for high-capacity grading and ditching.
- Bolt-On Cutting Edge The standard bolt-on cutting edge helps protect the bucket edge and supports extended operating hours in demanding excavation conditions.
- Tapered Side Plates Tapered side plates help reduce side wear while allowing smoother and easier material dumping after loading.
- Ditch Maintenance Design Purpose-built for ditch maintenance and construction, helping operators shape and maintain drainage channels efficiently.
- Precision Grading Capability The wide bucket profile supports grading and slope work, making it suitable for shaping surfaces and finishing excavation areas.
- Wide Size Selection Available in 48–84 inch widths, providing multiple configurations for different full-size excavator applications and material capacities.
- High-Capacity Options Bucket capacities range from 0.64 to 3.81 cubic yards, supporting efficient material handling across multiple excavator weight classes.
- Aquatic Application Ready Optional drain holes are available for aquatic applications, while specialized aquatic ditching configurations can support water-management projects.
- Long-Reach Compatibility Specific configurations are available for long-reach excavators, providing suitable ditching and grading capability for extended-reach applications.
- Professional Excavation Tool Engineered for full-size excavators, this bucket combines durability, reinforcement, grading performance, and high capacity for professional earthmoving work.
