HLA SBLP66HDT7 66-Inch Heavy Duty Low Profile Skid Steer Bucket
View on hlaattachments.com →
Overview
The HLA SBLP66HDT7 is a 66-inch heavy duty low profile skid steer bucket with seven ripper teeth, from Ontario-based HLA Attachments. The 66-inch width splits the difference between 60 and 72 inches — a practical choice when a 60-inch is too tight for your common tasks but the heavier 72-inch impacts machine stability on soft ground. The low-profile design keeps the load low and the sightline clear.
Canada Availability

Is This Right For You?

- 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

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
