Cast components
Next Generation Bradken® Face Shovel Bucket
More efficient maintenance
Design updates improve reliability and distribute stress into more durable cast components, enhancing structural performance.
Floating hinge pins and aluminium end caps extend component life and enable safer removal.
Compatible with OEM components (pins, bushes, seals and hydraulics) to ensure seamless installation and removal.
Improved TCO
Lower maintenance increases machine uptime and overall production.
Optimised bucket capacities and wear kits match conditions, maximising machine time and reducing life‑cycle costs.
Enhanced jaw fatigue life allows the bucket to stay on the machine for longer intervals.
Improved Safety
Optimised hydraulic hose routing eliminates premature hose failures and enhances inspection and maintenance safety.
Redesigned cast connection points increase fatigue life in high‑stress areas. Re‑routing the hoses removes welds from critical zones and reduces bends, lowering the risk of hose damage during operation while also making replacements faster and easier.
