Doosan introduces a new line of severe-duty buckets for crawler excavator customers needing a bucket that can handle abrasive materials in heavy digging and loading applications.

Doosan severe-duty buckets are approved for use with Doosan DX140LC-5 through DX530LC-5 crawler excavators. They are available in a pin-on or wedge-lock style. The severe-duty bucket sizes range from 18-in. (45.7 cm) wide for the smaller DX140LC-5, to 72-in. (182.8 cm) wide for larger Doosan excavators, such as the DX530LC-5. There are a variety of sizes and capacities in between, to best match the severe-duty bucket to the corresponding crawler excavator.

Abrasive-Resistant Material

Doosan severe-duty buckets are made with abrasive-resistant material for added protection and strength when digging in loose rock, or pit and quarry operations. The side cutters, shell bottom and side wear plates, and a weld-on wear shroud are made out of abrasive-resistant material. Reinforcing gussets also have been added to strengthen the machine-fitting joint on the bucket.

Wear Pads

Front wear pads were added to the severe-duty buckets for extra protection from rocks and irregular materials.

Thicker Cutting Edge, Rolled Wear Strap

Doosan excavator customers needing to easily dig through tough materials such as hard rock will appreciate a new, durable, abrasive-resistant cutting edge, according to the manufacturer.

Standard on the new Doosan severe-duty buckets is an abrasive-resistant wear strap.
