8.3.2 Bucket tips selection
Bucket tips may break off the adapter due to the working condition. In this case, suitable bucket
tips must be determined. Currently, we offer bucket tips with a lateral pin. So the following types
of bucket tips are recommended according to different working conditions.
8.3.2.1 Rockwork bucket tips
●
Would be used at where the bucket tips service life could be impaired, such as loading hard
rocks.
●
Would be used at where the bucket tips will not penetrate into the soils, such as handling
gravels after blasting or loosening the soils.
●
Would be used at where heavy load operation is carried out, such as tapping or pulling the
rock with bucket tips.
8.3.2.2 Earthwork bucket tips
●
Would be used at where the bucket tips will penetrate into the soils, such as excavating and
loading sand or clay.
