Alaska Rubbers Pvt Ltd. (ISO 9001 Certified Co.)
The Alaska Heavy Duty elevator bucket is engineered to exceed the performance requirements of the standard bucket. This bucket is designed with thicker walls and a reinforced front lip to increase bucket life and reduce breakage. Replacing existing CC-HD or Standard Duty buckets with the Alaska will create longer bucket life and less frequent replacements. Standard spacing is nominal projection + 2”. The most common applications include grain, fertilizer, pellets, corn, wheat, soybeans and other agricultural applications. The HD-MAX bucket stands second only to the Tiger-Tuff in strength and thickness.

Drilling - Elevator buckets are manufactured without a drill pattern. Special drilling or punching can be accommodated upon customer request.
Venting - Available as needed.
Digger Buckets - Use slightly larger metal digger elevator buckets to help loosen material in the elevator boot section that has set up or hardened, thereby reducing abrasion on the plastic buckets. Call for details on Metal Digger elevator bucket options.
Spacing - See elevator bucket spacing details in the Alaska Bucket chart above (depending on materials and speeds, smaller and larger spacing may be used).
Installation - Use a #1 standard elevator bolt or Sabre-Tooth elevator bolt for installation. Designed to be used with fender or flat and lock washers and hex or locking nuts. If buckets are being installed on chain, use hex head bolts, nuts and washers.
Adapter Plates - Recommended for chain mounting applications.
FDA - Both the urethane and polyethylene are designed to FDA specifications for direct contact with food products.
