Product Description:
✔ Heavy-Duty Bucket for Tough Jobs
The Star Industries Heavy-Duty forklift bucket is the only true heavy-duty commodity bucket designed for extendable-reach forklifts. Built for demanding applications, it makes moving bulk materials safer, faster, and more efficient. From construction sites to agricultural fields, this bucket gives operators the ability to handle large or irregular loads with ease.

Standard loaders can’t always reach where you need them. That’s where this forklift bucket stands out. Its design allows you to:
-
Store and move materials at different elevation levels.

Improved load capacity due to reduced overall weight.
