DYMAX SUGAR BEET BUCKET

A BALDERSON FAMILY DESIGN

Sugar beets come in frozen and load like bowling balls. The Dymax Sugar Beet Bucket can handle the roughness, thanks to a strong, 6-degree wedge floor design.

The half-arrow edge eases into the pile to protect the crop. Every load dumps cleanly off the smooth, ribless floor.

Available for larger loaders, such as Cat 966 and up, in capacities from 8.5 to 11.25 cubic yards.

KEY FEATURES

  • 6-degree wedge floor — stronger than standard buckets, with a smooth interior so beets don’t hang up.
  • Half-arrow weld-on cutting edge — eases into the pile and protects the crop.
  • Top spill rack with vertical oval slats — keeps beets in the bucket and the load in view.
  • A572 moldboard group, T1 steel convex side cutters, and bottom wear plates
  • Exterior side wear bar and rear bolt-on wear pads

OPTIONS

  • Pin-on lugging
  • Quick-coupler hooks
  • Custom widths to match the job

FAQ’S

A standard bucket is built to move dirt and aggregate. A sugar beet bucket is built to move a crop without wrecking it. The floor handles frozen loads. The edge works into the pile instead of bruising it. The spill rack holds beets in without blocking the view.

Yes. Frozen beets are dense and unforgiving, and the impact is what cracks a lighter bucket. The Dymax bucket has a 6-degree wedge floor, added gusseting, and T1 steel wear parts — built to take the abuse.

The Sugar Beet Bucket comes in three sizes:

  • Class 80 Loaders (Cat 966 / 970 / 972): 8.5 or 9.0 cyd capacity, 132″ wide
  • Class 90 Loaders (Cat 980 / 982): 11.25 cyd capacity, 144″ wide
