Heavy Duty Buckets. Heavy-duty (HD)
buckets are used for a wide range of
moderately abrasive applications such as
mixed dirt, clay and rock. HD buckets
have best loading and dumping
characteristics and will empty easier
in cohesive material. More robust
construction than the GP buckets.
General Purpose Capacity (GP-C)
Buckets. General Purpose Capacity
Buckets are best for digging in soft to
hard ground with low to moderately
abrasive materials.
Heavy-Duty Power (HDP) Buckets.
For use in moderately abrasive
applications where breakout force and
cycle times are critical. Maximizes tip
force and improves cycle times in
most materials.
Heavy-Duty Rock Buckets. Heavy-duty
rock for aggressive bucket loading in
highly abrasive application such as shot
rock and granite. Features include:
Thicker wear plates to extend the
life of bucket in severe applications
Side wear plated extend further up
the side of the bucket for maximum
protection in rocky soils
Buckets accept sidebar protectors
for best sidebar protection, or side
cutters for best fill characteristics
and bucket wear protection

of tips. There are also a variety of side
cutters and sidebar protectors to match
operating conditions.
Thumbs

matched to Cat machines for optimum
performance in a wide variety of
demolition and construction applications.

reliable, low-maintenance package.
These units produce high-power impulses
at a rate of 2,200 impacts per minute.
The forces generated by this vibration
drive soil particles close together for
solid, stable compactions. Whether in a
trench or on a slope, driving sheeting or
posts, Cat Compactors are the superior
