General Purpose (GP). General Purpose
(GP) buckets are for digging in soft to
hard ground with low to moderate
abrasive materials.
Heavy Duty Rock (HDR). Heavy Duty
Rock (HDR) buckets are for aggressive
bucket loading in highly abrasive
applications such as shot rock and granite.
Differences from GP buckets are:
• More robust construction for
improved life and durability
• Additional, thicker bottom wear
strips for improved wear in abrasive
applications
• Larger, thicker side plates for
maximum protection in rocky
materials
• Smaller tip radius for greater
breakout force
