Description
Overview:
The Bucket Bush 30x40x40mm is a replacement bush for compact excavators, built to restore smooth movement at bucket and linkage pivots. It is precision-made from durable, wear‐resistant metal and designed for an interference press fit in the housing. With a 30 mm internal diameter, 40 mm external diameter and 40 mm length, it pairs with a 30 mm pin and a 40 mm bore. The externally greased design helps deliver lubricant to the working surfaces, reducing friction and extending service life. Suitable for Caterpillar 301 Series machines, including the 301.5 and 301.6, and a range of other compact excavators listed below, it keeps the bucket mechanism running freely in demanding site conditions.
Key Features:
- 30 mm I.D. x 40 mm O.D. x 40 mm length for a precise fit with 30 mm pins and 40 mm housings
- Externally greased design helps maintain a lubricant film and reduces wear
- Smooth, low‐friction rotation protects pins and housings from premature damage
- Robust, wear‐resistant metal construction suited to heavy on‐site use
- Accurate machining for reliable press‐fit and correct alignment in the linkage
- Helps minimise play and ovality at bucket, dipper and linkage joints
- Compatible with a wide range of compact excavators (see Fits Models)
- Straightforward to service with standard chassis grease via external lubrication points
- Replacement option for OEM references 831/00108 and 83100108
- Suitable for demanding environments with dirt, water and shock loads
Typical Applications:
Used at bucket hinge points, link arms, and quick-hitch interfaces on compact excavators. Common in digging, trenching, grading and utility work where frequent articulation occurs. Ideal when refurbishing worn joints to restore tightness and smooth movement without replacing complete assemblies.
Also known as:
Bucket pin bush, pivot bushing, plain bearing bush, sleeve bearing, linkage bush, excavator bucket bushing.
