Terex Drill Bucket

Terex Spin Bottom Drill Bucket

Written by Kate Wade on . Posted in .

Terex Utilities has announced a new Spin Bottom Drill Bucket for use with digger derricks. It is designed to improve productivity when drilling in unstable ground conditions, such as wet or sandy environments.

As the tool drills into the ground, barrel teeth cut through the material while the bucket captures it, allowing the operator to dump the material outside of the hole. The spin bottom is simple to control with forward and reverse motions to open and close the tool.

While Terex Utilities has offered similar tools for auger drills, this is the first time this type of tool has been available for digger derricks.

The 18-inch-diameter Spin Bottom Drill Bucket recently was on display at the 2019 International Construction & Utility Equipment Exposition. Additional sizes up to 36 inches in diameter are available. The tool features 5/8-inch wall thickness, 30-inch barrel length and 104-inch overall length. Dirt teeth and pilot bit are standard. Hex hub options include 2 inches, 2.5 inches and 2.63 inches. www.terex.com/utilities
