The Project

Masterhitch was approached by Keynvor MorLift Ltd and asked to design and manufacture a large Trapezoidal Bucket for them. This attachment would be used to assist in a large project which involves laying a power cable from the Isle of Grain to Germany. 

The Completed Job

Masterhitch designed and manufactured a Trapezoidal bucket which was 800mm wide at the toe plate and 5 metres wide at the top – the sides were at 45 degrees. The bucket was 2 metres tall and the sides were nearly 3 metres long. This was made to fit onto a 60 tonne machine.

What is a Trapezoidal Bucket?

Trapezoidal buckets are specially designed attachments ideal for excavation and grading tasks, commonly used in construction, landscaping, and agricultural projects. These buckets have a unique trapezoidal shape, which allows for precise trenching with sloped sides, making them particularly effective for creating drainage ditches, trenches, and canal banks with stable, angled walls. Their design minimises soil spillage and reduces the need for additional reshaping, which saves time and improves efficiency on the job site. At Masterhitch, our trapezoidal buckets are built to withstand heavy-duty work, delivering durability and performance.
