HLA Attachments 72-Inch Heavy-Duty Standard Skid-Steer Bucket with Long Lip is a durable, high-capacity bucket designed for skid-steer loaders and compact track loaders using the universal skid-steer quick-attach interface. Model SB7240HDBO500 combines a 72-inch inside width with a 40-inch-deep long-lip profile, providing useful reach, easy filling, and capacities of 20.6 cubic feet struck and 26.9 cubic feet SAE heaped. Heavy-duty 1/4-inch bucket material, reinforced construction, and a substantial beveled cutting edge make it well suited to demanding material-handling work.
The bucket’s long-lip configuration provides a 40-inch depth while maintaining a 24-inch overall height. Its reinforced round back and reinforced end plates are designed to improve strength while promoting smooth filling and straightforward cleanout. Tapered, self-cleaning end plates help reduce material buildup, allowing material to move into and out of the bucket more efficiently.
The flat top also functions as a practical level indicator. From the operator’s position, this feature can help with judging bucket angle during loading, carrying, and grading operations.
HLA constructs this heavy-duty bucket with 1/4-inch main bucket material and 1/4-inch end plates. A reinforced top lip adds rigidity across the bucket opening, while the round back and end-plate reinforcement support the bucket in demanding operating conditions.
At the working edge, a 3/4 x 6-inch beveled cutting edge provides a robust contact surface for engaging material. The bucket is also drilled for a standard bolt-on cutting edge, providing a provision for adding a replaceable wear edge when required.
With a 72-inch inside width and 74-inch outside width, the SB7240HDBO500 offers substantial carrying capacity without adding unnecessary width beyond the bucket sides. It holds 20.6 cubic feet at struck capacity and 26.9 cubic feet at SAE heaped capacity. Approximate bucket weight is 720 pounds.
