2P Micro Trenching Bucket 27" Depth

Designed for precision micro trenching, this 2P Micro Trenching Bucket digs narrow, controlled trenches up to 700 mm deep (27 inches). Also known as the Virgin Media bucket, it delivers a compact 75 mm trench width, making it ideal for installing small-diameter pipes and cables—particularly fibre optic broadband runs. The bucket’s geometry boosts digging efficiency on initial cuts and helps reduce reinstatement costs by creating cleaner, more predictable trenches. For additional details, on-site demonstrations are available in the provided videos.

• Depth capacity: Digs up to 700 mm (27 inches) deep, enabling precise, deep micro-trenching where traditional buckets struggle.
• Trench width: Creates a narrow 75 mm (about 3 in) trench profile for minimal ground disturbance.
• Pin and linkage geometry: 35 mm diameter pins with a 140 mm dipper gap and 185 mm pin centers for stable, reliable operation.
• Ideal applications: Specifically designed for small-diameter pipes and cables, with a strong emphasis on fibre optic broadband installations.
• Efficiency and cost impact: Accelerates initial digging and reduces reinstatement costs by delivering consistent, narrow trenches with less disturbance to surrounding material.
• Reference resources: Often referred to as the Virgin Media bucket; videos available for detailed demonstrations and use-case scenarios.

Benefits: The 2P Micro Trenching Bucket helps you complete fibre and telecom trenching jobs faster and with less on-site rework. Its precise, narrow trench profile minimizes surface disruption, cuts backfill requirements, and supports cleaner reinstatement. Built for rugged field use, it suits operators looking to improve project timelines and reduce overall trenching costs without sacrificing reliability or safety.
