This Excavator mud bucket attachment is typically deployed on 20-ton excavators (such as Sany SY215, Komatsu PC210, CAT 320, or John Deere 210) for:
Ditching & Sloping: Precision grading, finishing, and shaping the angled batters of drainage channels, embankments, or highway roadsides.
Bulk Material Bulk Loading: High-efficiency cleaning of silted ponds, rivers, canals, and stockpiled loose soil.
Site Preparation: Final leveling, smoothing, and scraping back topsoil over expansive foundation areas before construction layout begins.
Features
1. Dual-Edge Bolt-On Cutting Edge (BOCE)
The bucket features a heavy-duty, flat, reversible cutting edge secured by a dense row of counter-sunk plow bolts.
The Benefit: Instead of teeth, this provides a continuous, clean, and perfectly smooth finish on the ground surface. Because it is a bolt-on wear part, when the first edge wears down, it can simply be flipped around or replaced entirely, protecting the structural base weldment of the bucket.
2. Wide, High-Capacity Profile
What it is: The bucket features an extended, shallow, and ultra-wide mouth profile compared to standard general-purpose trenching buckets.
The Benefit: Designed to maximize volume when moving bulk, low-impact materials like loose dirt, soft mud, silt, sand, and clay. The wide span allows operators to clear wide swathes of earth in a single pass, accelerating project timelines significantly.
3. Integrated Top Header Roll & Rigid Bracing
The upper structural cross-tube (torque tube) features a robust rolled radius plate reinforced with heavy, continuous structural welding.
The Benefit: This design prevents twisting, bending, or bowing under high torsion when the full width of the bucket encounters resistance or heavy loads across uneven terrain.
4. Heavy-Duty Dual Ear Pin-On Ear Plates
What it is: The top lugging structure consists of two thick, high-tensile steel ear plates bored out for heavy-duty pins.
The Benefit: This linkage setup is precisely dimensioned to withstand the breakout forces exerted by a 20-ton excavator’s stick and bucket cylinder. It provides a direct, highly stable pin-on connection or seamless compatibility with standard quick hitch couplers.
5. Smooth Internal Radius & Drainage-Ready Backing
What it is: As seen in the front-facing profile of 1643168682220783.jpg, the interior floor curves smoothly into the back sheet without internal steps or sharp, pocketed angles.
The Benefit: Minimizes material friction and prevents wet, sticky soil or mud from “baking” or lodging in the back of the bucket (known as “carry-back”). Material rolls out cleanly and effortlessly upon dumping.
1: Flawless “Robot-Grade” Welding Quality
The exceptionally clean, uniform weld beads and the high-gloss protective finish make this an excellent representation of HWX’s premium manufacturing standards.
At HWX, we don’t hide our welds. As you can see in our photos, every joint on our 20-ton clean-up bucket features perfectly uniform, deep-penetration weld beads with zero spatter. This high-grade welding ensures unmatched structural integrity, preventing stress cracks even under continuous heavy-duty scaling.
2:The “Zero-Welding” Maintenance AdvantageDowntime is lost revenue.
Downtime is lost revenue.Our reversible Bolt-on Cutting Edge (BOCE) allows your operator or field mechanic to rotate or replace the wear edge in under 15 minutes right on-site using standard hand tools. No welding machines, no cutting torches, and zero delay.
3: Precision Slope Grading & Trench Finishes
With a perfectly flat, razor-sharp leading edge and an optimized low-profile floor, this bucket allows operators to achieve a ‘mirror-finish’ on banks, ditches, and building pads. It is the ultimate productivity attachment for civil contractors looking to cut manual ground-prep labor by 50%.”
