Features&Benefits
The HD-MAX Heavy Duty elevator bucket is engineered to exceed the performance requirements of the standard bucket. This bucket is designed with thicker walls and a reinforced front lip to increase bucket life and reduce breakage. Replacing existing CC-HD or Standard Duty buckets with the HD-MAX will create longer bucket life and less frequent replacements. Standard spacing is nominal projection + 2″. The most common applications include grain, fertilizer, pellets, corn, wheat, soybeans and other agricultural applications. The HD-MAX bucket stands second only to the Tiger-Tuff in strength and thickness.
The HD-MAX Hy-Pro bucket has a reduced height modification for closer vertical spacing on the belt. The low profile system allows more buckets per foot of elevator belt. When upgrading to HD-MAX Heavy Duty Hy-Pro buckets, horsepower requirements must be evaluated due to increased capacity.
