Description

NM Attachments 48" Class 3 Ditch Cleaning Bucket – Standard Capacity (NM-3DC-48) is a purpose-built excavator attachment for shaping, cleaning, and maintaining ditches and slopes. Manufactured by NM Attachments, this standard-capacity ditching bucket provides a nominal 48-inch working width for efficient coverage across grading, backfilling, land clearing, and high-volume light-material handling tasks. Its Class 3 configuration is intended for excavators approximately 3.5–4.0 tonnes. A bolt-on cutting edge is available separately, allowing the bucket and cutting-edge component to be specified according to the needs of the application.

Built for Ditching and Grading Work

The NM-3DC-48 is designed for applications where a broad working width and ditch-cleaning profile can help improve productivity. It is suitable for slope work, ditching, grading, and backfilling, as well as land-clearing tasks and the handling of high volumes of light material. The standard-capacity configuration provides a practical option for general ditch maintenance and earthmoving work with compatible excavators.

With a nominal 48-inch width, this ditching bucket is suited to operators seeking a wider working path for shaping and clean-up operations. The bucket is also identified as a Class 3 excavator attachment, matching the supplied compatibility range of approximately 3.5–4.0-tonne excavators.
