Virnig V60 48-Inch Utility Bucket for Skid Steers
View on virnig.com →
Overview
The Virnig V60 48-inch utility bucket handles excavation, backfill, and general material on compact to mid-frame skid steers. Heavy-gauge 0.25-inch steel construction with wear bars under the bucket floor protects against abrasive material. A replaceable bolt-on cutting edge reduces downtime. Sized for tighter work areas where a narrower bucket improves productivity over wider options. Requires a loader capacity over 2,400 lbs. Compatible with most skid steer brands via universal SSQA mount. Made in Minnesota and available in Canada through Virnig's dealer network.
