Strengthen vulnerable parts of the bucket seat and side tooth blade plate is made of quality material selection, high-strength wear-resistant steel NM360, it has a higher hardness, we can used it to dig gravel mixed with softer hard soil or crushed stone, gravel and other heavy work load. Rock bucket seat and the side of the tooth blade plate material selection Sweden imported ultra high-strength wear-resistant steel HARDOX, a very high hardness is the kind of bucket's advantage, we can use it to digging hard gravel mixed with hard soil, sub-hard stone, weathered stone or flint, after blasting ore operating environment such as heavy loading.
