Werk-Brau GP Bucket 96 inch

Overview

Werk-Brau's 96-inch general purpose bucket is a wide-body loader bucket for large-frame skid steers and high-horsepower machines doing commercial earthmoving, bulk material loading, and land clearing. At 96 inches across, each scoop carries significant volume — suited to open sites, gravel yard work, and material transfer operations where production rate per cycle matters. The GP design handles topsoil, gravel, sand, and light fill. Werk-Brau manufactures in Ohio with commercial-grade steel construction. Available in Canada through authorized Werk-Brau dealers.

Is This Right For You?

Buy if

  • You need one versatile bucket for gravel, soil, concrete chunks, and general debris
  • Your machine is mid-frame (S450–S650 class) or CTL

Skip if

  • You work primarily in rock, frozen ground, or heavy demolition — a rock bucket handles that better
  • You need clamshell/4-in-1 functionality

Also consider

  • Rock bucket if your primary work is shot rock or frozen ground
  • 4-in-1 (multipurpose) bucket if you also need occasional grading or clamshell action
Machine Compatibility

Wide attachment — verify your machine's rated operating capacity (ROC) before ordering. Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach — no auxiliary hydraulics required.

Care & Maintenance

  • Grease the bucket pin and hinge points every 20 hours of use — dry pins wear oval and cause slop in the carrier, which transfers shock to the coupler
  • Inspect the cutting edge for wear after work in rock, frozen ground, or hard fill — replace or flip bolt-on edges when worn to 50% of original thickness
  • Check coupler latch engagement before every use — a partially latched bucket can release under load
  • Clean debris from behind the cutting edge to prevent buildup that warps the edge over time; dried material also traps moisture against bare steel
  • Inspect sidewall and base plate welds for cracking after heavy rock or demolition work — cracks spread rapidly if caught late

How to Connect

  1. Position bucket face-down on ground
  2. Drive forward into Bob-Tach receiver arms
  3. Pull both lock handles to engage
  4. Verify orange indicators show LOCKED
  5. Test lift 6 inches — do not drive until confirmed locked
Safety NoteBob-Tach / Bob-Lock verification is critical — look for orange indicator pins fully engaged
