Bucket Repair, Attachments & Hardfacing
Cracked buckets rebuilt, worn edges restored and wear surfaces hardfaced, so attachments go back to work instead of out for replacement.
Buckets and attachments take the abuse. AHT repairs cracked shells, split seams, broken side cutters and worn heels, and hardfaces wear areas to extend service life between rebuilds.
A repaired bucket usually costs a fraction of a replacement. Photos of the damage let AHT say up front whether it is worth repairing.

- Bucket crack excavation, rebuild and reinforcement
- Seam and corner repair
- Cutting edge, side cutter and heel repair
- Hardfacing of wear surfaces
- Tooth adapter and shank repair

Is it worth repairing a cracked bucket?
In most cases, yes. A properly excavated and reinforced repair returns the bucket to service for a fraction of replacement cost.
What is hardfacing?
Hardfacing lays a wear-resistant weld deposit over high-wear areas. It slows abrasion and extends the time between rebuilds.
