The Star Industries Heavy Duty Forklift Bucket lets a machine that came to site to place pallets also move loose stock, and it puts that material where a wheel loader has no way in: over a wall, onto a deck, behind an elevated obstruction. On a job with one machine, that is the difference between a second hire and a five minute change.

Star builds it two ways, and the choice is a real one rather than a trim level. The quick-tach connects straight to the end of the boom with the forks and carriage removed, which takes 700 to 1,000 pounds off the machine and hands that back as lift capacity, so it is the choice where the load is heavy or the reach is long. The universal model slides over 48 inch forks and pins behind the heel, which leaves the forks on the machine and carries a deeper shell for awkward loads, so it is the choice where the operator swaps back and forth all day. Three widths run through both styles, with high back and high capacity shells where the machine's quick-tach or the material calls for them, and an extreme duty shell on the quick-tach for machines rated at fifteen thousand pounds and above. This is for general contractors and rental fleets running one telehandler across several trades.

Common Applications

Moving sand, gravel and aggregate around a congested site
Placing loose material at height or behind a wall
Site cleanup and debris collection on a fork-equipped machine
Backfilling and stockpile work where a loader cannot reach

Selection Notes

Quick-tach removes the forks and carriage and hands 700 to 1,000 lb back as lift capacity
The universal model leaves the forks on the machine and carries a deeper shell
Gehl Dynacarrier, JCB QFit and Pettibone quick-tachs require an HB or HC series bucket
The extreme duty 1496EXD is for forklifts rated 15,000 lb or greater; check the machine's rating first
The slip-on models are designed for 48 in forks, so check fork length before ordering
The bolt-on cutting edge is selected on this listing rather than ordered separately, at 60 in, 72 in and 95 in
The 97 in extreme duty bucket has no blade option here, because Star publishes no bolt-on blade at that width
Ordering a quick-tach model means stating the make, model and year of the forklift
Confirm your carrier's rated operating capacity before ordering
