Werk-Brau Tilt Buckets Enhance Productivity and Reduce Track and Undercarriage Wear
Werk-Brau introduces the Tilting Bucket with increased tilt force and 45-degrees of tilt in both directions for maximum control and articulation in ditching, grading, and sloping applications. They eliminate machine repositioning which boosts productivity while reducing wear and tear on the tracks and undercarriage. An enhanced, oversized cylinder design increases tilting force, allowing the unit to better hold the desired angle. Integrated cylinder guards protect the cylinders and keep them functioning without damage or leaks.
For compact excavators a single cylinder design is used, while full size excavators utilize dual cylinders. The Heavy-Duty Excavator Bucket is built to last with high quality T-1 steel utilized in all critical or high wear components, with a rigid top section to eliminate flexing. Heavy-duty horizontal wear straps protect the bucket bottom. Each bucket is engineered with tapered side plates and a dual taper radius that reduce wear and make dumping easier. Werk-Brau tilting buckets are designed for a wide range of ditch digging or cleaning applications, creating unique slopes, grading projects, and more.
All Werk-Brau tilt buckets are manufactured in the company's Findlay, Ohio, factory with industry leading lead times, and available through heavy equipment dealers around the world. They are designed to be easy to install on coupler-equipped excavators, with just two hydraulics lines to connect.
Werk-Brau manufactures a complete line of OEM and replacement attachments for excavators, mini excavators, backhoes, mini and full-size loaders, and crawler loaders.
