1.5–2.5 Tonne Excavator Scandinavian Tilt Bucket – 1000mm

The 1.5–2.5 tonne excavator Scandinavian tilt bucket is a 1000mm-wide attachment designed for accurate grading, shaping and finishing with mini diggers and compact excavators. Its extended floor, tapered sides and long, flat base help the operator achieve a controlled finish across slopes, banks, ditches and uneven ground.

With a 110-litre capacity and an attachment weight of 111kg, this model provides greater coverage than the smaller 700mm bucket while remaining suitable for compact machines. It is manufactured from abrasion-resistant steel and fitted with a heavy-duty HB400 cutting edge.

Every bucket is finished to suit the confirmed excavator or quick-hitch linkage. If you are unsure about compatibility, send us your machine and hitch details before ordering.

Where This 1000mm Tilt Bucket Works Best

The 1000mm working width provides a useful balance between coverage and control for smaller excavators. It allows the operator to grade a wider area with each pass while remaining manageable on gardens, housing developments, drainage projects and restricted construction sites.

Typical applications include:

• Grading and levelling soil
• Shaping banks, slopes and verges
• Cleaning and maintaining drainage ditches
• Landscaping and garden groundwork
• Spreading topsoil, aggregate and loose materials
• Finishing ground around kerbs and foundations
• Creating smooth transitions between different ground levels
• Final site preparation following excavation

This bucket is primarily intended for controlled grading and finishing. For trenching, foundations or cutting into compacted material, choose a dedicated excavator digging bucket.

Scandinavian Tilt Bucket or Fixed Grading Bucket?

A conventional fixed grading or ditching bucket is a practical choice for straightforward levelling, material spreading and ditch clearance where the excavator can be positioned in line with the working surface.

A Scandinavian tilt bucket has an extended floor and tapered profile intended for more detailed shaping and angled finishing. This makes it particularly useful when following slopes, forming banks or working close to kerbs, foundations and other obstacles.

Neither attachment is intended to replace a narrower toothed digging bucket in hard or compacted ground. The right choice depends on whether the main requirement is excavation, general levelling or more precise shaping and finishing.

Excavator and Quick-Hitch Compatibility

Excavator buckets are not universal. Although this model is intended for machines within the 1.5–2.5 tonne class, excavators of a similar size can use different pin dimensions, dipper widths and quick-hitch systems.

Please provide the following information when ordering:

• Excavator make and model
• Machine operating weight
• Quick-hitch or coupler make and model
• Pin diameter
• Pin-centre measurement
• Internal dipper or linkage width
• Clear photographs of the hitch or an existing bucket where possible

Machine weight should only be used as an initial guide. The complete linkage specification must be confirmed before manufacture. If you cannot provide the measurements, complete our attachment fitment and quotation form.

Delivery and Ordering

This Scandinavian tilt bucket is finished to suit the confirmed machine or quick-hitch linkage. Typical fulfilment is within 7–10 working days, although the exact lead time can vary depending on factory workload and linkage requirements.

If the attachment is needed for a particular project or delivery date, please contact us before ordering so that current availability can be confirmed.

1.5–2.5 Tonne Scandinavian Tilt Bucket FAQs

How wide is this Scandinavian tilt bucket?

It has a working width of 1000mm, equivalent to approximately 39.4 inches.

What is the bucket capacity?

This model has a capacity of 110 litres, making it suitable for grading and moving manageable quantities of soil, aggregate and other loose material.

How much does the bucket weigh?

The bucket weighs 111kg without any material loaded. The excavator manufacturer’s attachment-weight guidance and lifting capacity should be checked before use.

Will it fit every 1.5–2.5 tonne excavator?

No. Excavators and quick hitches within the same weight class can use different linkage dimensions. The machine model, hitch type, pin diameter, pin centres and linkage width must be confirmed.

Can this bucket be used for digging?

It can collect loose material and undertake light shaping, but it is not intended to replace a narrower toothed bucket for trenching or aggressive digging in compacted ground.

What information is required when ordering?

Provide the excavator make and model, operating weight, hitch details and linkage measurements. Photographs of the hitch or an existing bucket can also help confirm compatibility.
