Bucket Ground Engaging Tools
Selecting the right bucket will determine the productivity of your loader. The process of selection starts with knowing the density of the material you load. From there, you can select the size and appropriate protection strategies that will suit the rated payload targets of your machine. Your Cat dealer can help you configure your bucket or have a custom bucket made to suit your application.
Heavy Duty Rock Bucket
Applications: Face loading tightly compacted pit materials. Moderate-abrasion factors and high-impact loads are suitable for this bucket.
High Abrasion Rock Bucket
Applications: Face loading iron ore. High-abrasion and moderate-impact loads are suitable for this bucket. A smooth floor is also desirable.
Coal Bucket
Applications: For coal or other light density non abrasive materials.
NOTE: Some applications can be very abrasive. Consider that additional bucket protection can affect the performance of the machine through higher horsepower demand, higher fuel consumption and reduced productivity. With this in mind, it is important that you select appropriate protection for your application.
Enhance the productivity of your loader and protect your investment in buckets with our Ground Engaging Tools (GET). Your knowledgeable Cat dealer will work with you to understand your application and needs for the GET that is best for you. For a full list of Cat GET please visit http://www.cat.com/get.

System Match Efficiency
Application Match
The standard 993K is sized to load the 90 tonnes (100 tons) 777 in 3-4 passes. The 993K High Lift loads the 136 tonnes (150 tons) 785 in six passes.
Efficient Combination
For full truck payloads with minimum loading time, an efficient loading/hauling system starts with a perfect match. Cat wheel loaders are matched with Cat mining trucks to maximize volume of material moved at the lowest operating cost per ton.
Bucket Selection
Selection of the right bucket width depends on penetration requirements and the loading target. Bucket sizes are matched to truck bed capacities for optimum loading efficiency and greater productivity.
