The DS mini is a deep digging bucket in the Nordic profile for mini and midi excavators. Its bottom is longer and its tip radius larger than on a standard digging bucket, so it cuts deeper in one pass and keeps large stones and stony soil in the bucket.
About this family
The DS Scandinavian Deep Digging Bucket has a long body made of Hardox® steel, for deep excavations and hard ground.
Six sizes cover machines from 0.6 to 10 t, DS-20 through DS-90, in widths from 300 to 1000 mm. Capacity runs from 34 to 452 litres (SAE) and weight from 31 to 209 kg. The tip radius grows from 454 mm on DS-20 to 873 mm on DS-90, and the bucket carries three to five teeth depending on its width.
The shell is made of Hardox® steel. Heavy duty wear plates are available as an option for very abrasive ground. The small sizes take E11.4 or V13 teeth; DS-90 takes J250, V19 or U20.
The bucket is built with a direct fit OEM bracket or for your quick coupler: S30 to S50, MS01 to MS08, Martin M02 to M10, HydroQuick HS02 to HS08, OQ40 and OQ45, as well as CW and MS reversible.
