Description
The NM Attachments Class 8 Trapezoid Bucket 8TB-48 is a heavy-duty excavator bucket designed for trenching and pipeline applications. With an 18-inch bottom width and 48-inch top width, it produces a trapezoidal trench profile that can help reduce backfill requirements. AR-400 steel is used in all critical wear areas to support durability in demanding excavation work. This bucket is intended for excavators in the 14,000–24,000 lb machine-size class, with the mount configuration specified to suit the excavator.
Built for Trenching and Pipeline Work
The 8TB-48 is designed to create a wider trench at the top than at the bottom, producing a trapezoidal profile suited to trenching and pipeline applications. This profile can reduce the amount of material required for backfilling compared with a wider, uniformly shaped excavation. Its heavy-duty construction and AR-400 wear steel make it suitable for work where the bucket is exposed to repeated contact with abrasive soil and other demanding ground conditions.
