The right bucket will make sure you earn more money by moving more material. It will also reduce your fuel servicing costs, save you time and keep your customers happy. So selecting a good quality mud bucket, that won't let you down is very important.

To achieve the best possible results, bear in mind these few quick points when you're selecting a new batter bucket.

1. Know your application. It may seem obvious, but your first priority is to determine the type of material you'll need to move, and the lifting capacity of the machine you'll be using. Once you have this information, you'll be able to find the right sand, mud, batter or loading bucket for your application.

2. Bucket geometry. A good, high performance excavator trim bucket has the right proportions and bucket geometry to provide efficient loading and unloading of materials. Choosing a mud bucket with the right geometry will improve your productivity and performance.

3. Batter bucket construction. The batter bucket that you choose should be examined to ensure that it has a robust, heavy-duty construction to increase bucket life and better strength.

4. Capacity and width of bucket. Choose a mud bucket with the right capacity, width and depth to have more efficient bucket fills for the constituency of the materials your will be handling.

5. Head plate, heavy duty. For optimum digging power, a solid head plate provides strength through the bucket from the ears. To ensure the loading bucket can withstand the stresses and strains of the job, the strength of the head plate is important.

6. Cutting edge. The cutting edge can be reinforced with bolt-on edges for extra strength and better durability.

In recap remember our points, know the material you'll be moving and choose a bucket with good geometry. A heavy duty plate with a good cutting edge is also essential. It must have good construction, be durable and have good width and capacity.
