Mini excavator grading bucket 1000 mm Komatsu, aftermarket

Mini excavator grading bucket 1000 mm is an aftermarket part for the Komatsu machines. According to the product card, this part is a mini excavator grading bucket.

The backhoe bucket is the main tool for digging and trenching. Bucket width is chosen for the job: narrow buckets (300-400 mm) for cable and pipe trenches, medium widths for general digging, and wide grading buckets for ditch cleaning, slope trimming and surface grading. Grading buckets usually have no teeth, only a straight cutting edge. The bucket is fitted to the machine's dipper with pins and bushes or through a quick hitch. When choosing a bucket, the type of work matters as well as the width: a wide excavation with a narrow bucket needs more cycles, while a wide bucket in hard ground overloads the machine and reduces breakout force. The teeth, edge and side cutters are checked regularly, as a worn cutting edge shortens the life of the bucket body and raises fuel consumption.
