Bucket teeth are replaceable teeth mounted on the edge of buckets for excavators, loaders, and other construction machinery. They help the bucket penetrate tough materials such as soil, rock, and gravel, improving the machine's efficiency in digging and loading.

There are several types of bucket teeth, including standard teeth, wear-resistant teeth, claw teeth, and specialized teeth for specific tasks.

Standard teeth are used for general digging.
Wear-resistant teeth are designed for high durability in abrasive materials.
Claw teeth have a V-shape for better penetration into compacted material.

The choice of bucket teeth depends on the material being excavated and the task requirements.

For harder, abrasive materials like rock and gravel, wear-resistant teeth made of hardened steel are a good choice.
It is also important to select teeth that fit the bucket’s mounting system.

Bucket teeth should be replaced when they show significant wear, such as becoming too short, uneven, or cracked. The frequency of replacement depends on working conditions and the hardness of the material. Regular maintenance helps extend the lifespan of both the bucket and the machine.
