Key Features

Toothless Precision Profile

The complete absence of teeth allows operators to clean trenches and smooth out surfaces without gouging the ground. This edge design enables precise depth and width control during excavation, making it ideal for plumbing, electrical, and irrigation pipe laying.

Hardened Permanent Cutting Edge

The bucket features a structurally integrated permanent cutting edge fabricated from hardened steel to increase service life during continuous abrasion. This durable base edge provides a clean scrape along the bottom of the trench while reducing the risk of striking hidden utility lines.

Internal Strong Back Reinforcement

A heavy-duty internal strong back is built into the rear structure to distribute loading stresses evenly across the frame. This rigid spine limits bucket flex under pressure and protects the assembly against long-term structural fatigue.

Reversible Bolt-On Edge Option

Operators can choose to configure these attachments with an optional reversible bolt-on edge for extended field wear. This bolt-on component can be flipped over once worn, effectively doubling the lifespan of the primary digging edge before workshop maintenance is required.

One Piece Wear Sides

Each unit uses a single-piece side plate design to prevent cracking along high-stress welded seams during heavy side loading. Pre-drilled hole provisions are fabricated into the side lips as standard, allowing for immediate installation of bolt-on side cutters to alter trenching width.

Frequently Asked Questions

These attachments are engineered for work areas requiring a smooth finish and precise trench depth, such as plumbing, electrical, and irrigation trenching. The lack of teeth prevents gouging and allows excavation close to live underground utilities without causing impact damage.

Yes. While standard profiles are stocked at our facility, the local Brisbane fabrication workshop can manufacture gummy buckets to any width requested by a customer. The engineering team utilises the main workshop infrastructure to build units matching specific fleet requirements.

We supply these toothless attachments for a wide range of machinery weights, starting from 0.5 tonne micro excavators up to large 110 tonne mining and civil fleets. Each bucket is machined to match the exact original equipment manufacturer pin pickup geometry of your specific model.

The internal strong back functions as a rigid structural spine along the rear of the bucket shell. This design element limits frame flex during heavy digging cycles, minimising stress on the welded joints and reducing long-term metal fatigue.

Yes. Every unit comes standard with pre-fabricated hole provisions built directly into the side lips. This configuration allows operators to quickly bolt on optional side cutters to achieve exact trench widths without needing to perform any workshop welding.

The optional reversible edge provides a secondary sacrificial wear layer over the permanent hardened cutting edge. Once one side experiences continuous abrasive wear, the edge can be unbolted, flipped over, and resecured to double the operating life of the tool.
