JCB 8029 Tilt Grading Bucket - 48" / 1200mm

This heavy-duty 48-inch tilting grading bucket is engineered to fit JCB 8029 excavators. It uses the same hydraulic circuit as a thumb attachment, enabling tilt action up to 45° left and right (a total of 90°). Note: hydraulic hoses are not included—you’ll need to source the correct hoses for your machine. When mounted, it makes shaping trenches and yard landscaping faster and more precise.

• Reinforced Leading Edge & Additional Wear Plates: Built to withstand frequent grading and trenching wear in demanding job sites.
• Hydraulic Hoses Fitted Up to Tilting Headstock: Pre-installed hoses streamline installation to the tilt head (hoses are not included; ensure you source the correct hoses for your excavator).
• Designed for 48" / 1200mm Width: Optimized for the JCB 8029, balancing reach, depth, and grade control for precise results.

The tilt grading bucket enables faster, more controlled shaping of trenches, drainage channels, and landscape contours. Its 90° tilt range lets you follow complex shapes with fewer passes, reducing fuel use and wear. With a robust build and wear-resistant features, this attachment minimizes downtime due to edge wear, while pre-fitted hoses simplify integration with your machine. Ideal for operators who need consistent grading performance on small-to-medium site projects and landscaping tasks.
