Description
Overview:
This 35mm Bucket Pin is a heavy‐duty replacement pivot pin for Kubota mini diggers and excavators, including popular models such as KH60 and KX71. It links the bucket to the dipper arm or linkage, providing a secure pivot point that keeps the joint tight and accurate under load. The pin is machined from high‐strength steel to cope with shock, torsion and abrasive site conditions. A fitted grease nipple allows regular lubrication to minimise friction and wear. Key dimensions are a 35 mm diameter (1.38 inches) and an overall length of 230 mm (9.06 inches). Use it to restore smooth articulation and reduce play in the bucket joint on machines working in construction, utilities, groundworks and landscaping.

Typical Applications:
Used at the bucket‐to‐dipper arm or bucket linkage joint on Kubota mini excavators. Suitable for machines working on trenching, grading, backfilling, landscaping, utility repairs and general site preparation. Ideal for restoring worn joints, maintaining accurate bucket control, and preventing accelerated bush wear through correct lubrication and tight fitment.
Also known as:
Bucket shaft, excavator shaft, digger shaft, bucket pivot pin, bucket hinge pin, dipper end pin, linkage pin. These terms are commonly used for the pivot pin that secures the bucket to the arm or linkage and allows free, lubricated rotation during digging and loading.
