2C Micro Trenching Bucket 27" Depth

The 2C Micro Trenching Bucket is a 27" deep dig bucket designed for precise micro trenching tasks. Also known as the Virgin Media bucket, it digs to about 700mm and is 75mm wide, making it ideal for installing small-diameter cables and pipes—especially fibre optic broadband. With standard 35mm pin diameter, 111mm dipper gap, and 136mm pin-centre spacing, this bucket fits common excavator linkages and delivers a controlled, narrow trench. It’s engineered to boost the efficiency of the initial dig and help reduce reinstatement costs on fibre and small-diameter installation projects.

• Depth capability: 27" (≈700mm) deep digging for precise micro trenches.
• Narrow trench width: 75mm wide opening ideal for small-diameter cables and fibre optic installations.
• Linkage compatibility: 35mm pin diameter, 111mm dipper gap, and 136mm pin centres to fit standard excavator fittings.
• Primary use: Best suited for fibre optic broadband installation and other micro-trenching applications.
• Efficiency and cost impact: Improves initial digging efficiency and helps reduce reinstatement costs on site.

Using this bucket delivers cleaner, faster trenches that minimize surface disruption and backfill work. Its narrow profile and deep reach enable precise fibre installs and small-pipe runs with confidence, helping projects stay on schedule and within budget—even in urban or congested job sites. Designed for excavator operators who demand reliable performance in micro-trenching tasks, it provides a practical, no-nonsense solution when precision matters most.
