HLA Attachments MBHV120HDBO500 120-Inch Heavy Duty High Volume Front-End Loader Bucket is built for loaders that need substantial material capacity, rugged construction, and efficient filling and cleanout. With a 120-inch inside width, 43.2-cubic-foot struck capacity, and 54.0-cubic-foot SAE heaped capacity, this high-volume bucket is suited to handling large quantities of material. Its reinforced round back, tapered self-cleaning end plates, and flat top level indicator help operators load efficiently, monitor bucket position, and reduce material buildup. This configuration includes the BO500 skidsteer-style quick-attach mount.
The MBHV120HDBO500 combines a wide bucket profile with heavy-duty materials for demanding front-end loader work. The bucket body and end plates are both manufactured from 1/4-inch material, providing strength throughout the primary load-bearing surfaces. A reinforced top lip adds rigidity, while the reinforced round back and end plates support the bucket under heavy loads.
The round-back profile is designed to promote easy filling and cleanout. Tapered, self-cleaning end plates further reduce material buildup, helping material release more readily during dumping. These features make the bucket a practical choice where high carrying volume and efficient loading cycles are important.
A 3/4 x 6-inch beveled cutting edge provides a robust working edge for loading operations. The bucket is also drilled for a standard bolt-on cutting edge, allowing it to be equipped with compatible optional cutting-edge configurations when required. Available options include double-bevel and serrated bolt-on edges, as well as knock-on ripper teeth with weld-on adapters and flex pins.
The bucket’s flat top serves as a visual level indicator. This gives the operator a straightforward reference for judging bucket angle from the loader seat. Combined with the reinforced round back and tapered end plates, the design supports consistent filling, controlled positioning, and cleaner material discharge.
This bucket is configured with the HLA BO500 skidsteer-style quick-attach mount. It is intended for loaders equipped with a compatible HLA BO500 skidsteer-style quick-attach carrier. BO500 is used as the mounting code for numerous compatible loader models; loader-specific fitment should be confirmed against HLA Attachments’ mounting-code catalogue before purchase.
The bucket is drilled for a standard bolt-on cutting edge and supports several optional working-edge configurations. These options allow the bucket to be configured for different wear, penetration, and material-handling requirements:
