Skid Steer Dirt Bucket Attachment - Haugen Attachments

📘 Overview

The Haugen MHDB Heavy Duty skid steer dirt bucket is a low-profile and general-purpose bucket built specifically for the abuse cycle that rental fleets and commercial job sites demand. Available in seven widths from 60" to 96" in two edge configurations — smooth high-carbon cutting edge and tooth bucket with 6–11 Series 23 replaceable-tip weld-on teeth — all in the Heavy Duty series with 1/2" x 3" wear bars on the bottom, 1/4" wrapper and side plates, and a built-in step. Weights range from 570 lbs (smooth, 60") to 730 lbs (smooth, 90") and 630 lbs (tooth, 60") to 782 lbs (tooth, 90"). Made in USA with a 1-year warranty.

⚙️ Key Features

• Seven widths: 60", 66", 72", 78", 84", 90", 96" (workbook lists 60–90 with tooth, 60–96 smooth)
• Two edge options: Smooth 3/4" x 6" high-carbon edge (MHDB) or Tooth (MHDB WT) with 6–11 Series 23 weld-on teeth with replaceable tips
• Low-profile design for maximum visibility over the bucket
• 1/2" x 3" wear bars on the bottom for floor wear and extra bottom strength
• 1/4" bucket wrapper and side plates with extra gusset on leading edge
• 3/4" x 6" high-carbon cutting edge drilled to accept bolt-on edge
• Heavy-duty full universal skid steer quick attach plate
• Built-in step
• Made in USA | 1-year warranty

🔑 Benefits

• Rental-company construction — built for the daily abuse cycle, not light-duty work — the 1/2" x 3" wear bars on the floor, 1/4" wrapper, extra leading-edge gusset, and full quick attach plate are over-engineered relative to economy buckets, which is exactly why Haugen's buckets survive rental fleet cycles that destroy lighter competitors.
• Series 23 replaceable-tip teeth (WT variant) eliminate full tooth replacement on wear — the tip unscrews or pins off the tooth shank when worn; only the tip is replaced rather than the entire weld-on tooth. On abrasive soils, this cuts tooth maintenance cost per hour significantly.
• Low-profile design improves operator sightlines to the cutting edge — lower back height gives the operator a clear view of the cutting edge and bucket lip during precision work (final grade leveling, trench bottom cleanup, material pile entry), reducing the risk of over-digging or striking an obstruction.
• Seven widths cover compact machines (60") through large track loaders (90–96") — with 30 cu ft increments across the range, operators can select the width that maximizes fill per pass without exceeding machine capacity.

📊 Specifications

🔗 Attachment Compatibility

The MHDB uses the Universal Quick Attach system. The full-size quick attach plate is over-engineered relative to economy buckets — the plate engages all locking points on the skid steer coupler for maximum retention. Verify the bucket width matches or slightly exceeds your machine's track/tire width for complete coverage on grading passes.

🚜 Machine Compatibility

Compatible with skid steer loaders and compact track loaders equipped with a Universal Quick Attach system, including:

Compatibility is determined by mount type — confirm your machine's Universal Quick Attach configuration before ordering.
