- 1m³ to 8m³ capacity (Other sizes are available upon request)
- Quick hitch or direct mount fitment
- Bolt on reversible wear edge
- Bolt on heel plates
- Trash guard
- Spill guard
- Teeth and adaptors
Designed For Maximum Performance
- Ideal for bulk handling of a wide range of agricultural materials including manure, grain, and wood chip
- Single piece clamp
- Independent twin ram two piece clamp
- Quick hitch or direct mount fitment
- Bolt on reversible wear edge
- Bolt on heel plates
- Fitted with hydraulic cross line relief valve to protect the hydraulic system
- Larger volumes can be moved as the bucket floor opens to release material, as the load centres are kept closer compared to a conventional high tip bucket configuration
- BA Caulkett Clam Buckets utilise Hardox high tensile steels in their design and features high capacity hydraulic cylinders for a positive bucket opening.
- Ideally rams will be covered to provide spill protection
General Purpose Rock Buckets
- Straight edge rock bucket – the best choice for loading easily broken material from banks
- Spade nose rock bucket – when fitted with bolt on edges is the best choice for re-handling of loose materials and aggregates
- When fitted with welded teeth and segments it is the best choice for loading easily broken material from banks
- Quick hitch or direct mount fitment
- Bolt on reversible wear edge
BAC General Purpose Buckets are manufactured using the following materials
- Hardox™ – complete fabrication for abrasive / hard wearing environments
- Hardox™ wear parts- where certain elements need to have harder wearing capabilities
- Domex™ – where a lighter, high strength bucket required
- Mild Steel – S355
- Hard Face Welding can be applied to areas subjected to high abrasive wear
Designed For Maximum Performance
- With a vast knowledge and understanding of the various industries we can help you select the correct bucket specification for your application
- General Purpose buckets are CAD designed and can be built to a customers exact requirements
- Buckets can be matched to any RAL colours
- Physical logos and names can be plasma cut and attached to buckets
- Fleet numbering and ID’s are added to allow for easier identification

General Purpose Bucket Options
Option 1 : All rounder. The Straight-edge Bucket is an ideal choice for general purpose load and carry applications where aggregates or loose material need to be re-handled. The bucket body is typically constructed from a thicker tensile steel, whilst the cutting edges and wear plates made using Hard steel
Option 2 : Breaker The Heavy Duty Straight-edge Bucket is typically manufactured from thicker steel with a higher tensile strength. The cutting edges and wear plates fabricated from the same steel as used on the All Rounder . The Heavy Duty Bucket is typically used for load and rock carrying applications and for breaking material from banks.
Option 3 : Load & Carry. The Light Material Straight-edge Bucket made with thinner ( but strong) materials is an ideal bucket for most carry and load applications. Offering an increased cubic metre capacity, makes it a great choice for re-handling lighter bulky materials such as wood chips, sawdust, coke and in the winter snow
