In order to get the most out of your machine and excavator bucket, it is very important that you choose the right Ground Engaging Tools (GET) to suit the application. Here are the top 4 key factors you need to keep in mind when choosing the right excavator teeth for your application.

Unfortunately, when you purchase your excavator buckets, you are generally limited to the tooth and adapter systems supplied by the particular bucket manufacturer. Some of these manufacturers fit the cheapest excavator teeth to the buckets in order to get to the cheapest price or make the most profit, rather than tooth systems that work efficiently.

Maintaining sharp excavator teeth will help increase productivity and reduce the stress on your machine, protecting your machine and excavator bucket and resulting in longer machine life and reducing maintenance costs.

Both the design and fitment of the bucket teeth is very important to their lifespan, performance and application.

With the greater emphasis from a number of GET wholesalers being on price, some manufacturers have to reduce the quality of their products in order to meet these price demands. These reductions result in poorer quality of the cast steel, the fitment of the moulds and shorter heat treatment processes so they are not as hard or abrasion resistant.

All manufacturing short-cuts result in the teeth and adapters being of poor fitment, break easily and wear prematurely. When selecting the best excavator teeth for your application, you should keep in mind these 4 factors. The right excavator teeth could make all the difference!
