DESCRIPTION
The TAG Severe Duty High-Capacity Rock Bucket Series is engineered for maximum performance in the most demanding excavation environments. Designed for excavators weighing 140,000–160,000 lbs (65–80 tons), these buckets combine brute strength with precision engineering to deliver faster loading cycles, greater yardage per pass, and reduced wear and failure rates.
Built on TAG’s proven heavy-duty platform, these buckets feature larger triangle gussets, full-width replaceable transverse wear strips, extended bucket ears, and full side wear plates. Available with either a 2½" or 3" cutting lip, each model is optimized for high-impact rock excavation, quarrying, and severe-duty earthmoving.
