Maximizing the Lifespan of Excavator Buckets: Build Up, Hard Surfacing and Wear Plates

A bunch of build up and hard surfacing as preventive maintenance on this bucket. Personally I prefer wear plates over hard surface as I think they hold up better but this will still add some good service life.

Do you need some Heavy Equipment repairs or build up, hard surfacing, or wear plates added by a mobile welder? Or a custom project fabricated? We are located in the Fraser Valley and willing to take our mobile service truck off the beaten path to get the job done. Contact us today at mike@burntbeardfab.ca or 604-997-0327
