Amulet Manufacturing Company has released a full line of ditching buckets for small excavators and most backhoe loaders up to 20,000 lbs., with larger bucket sizes planned for 2026.

Built 100 percent in the United States with U.S.-made steel and a full 2-year warranty, the new Amulet ditching buckets are built to last, according to Amulet.

Featuring AR400 serrated "grip" side plates and AR400 smooth or toothed bucket edges, the new Amulet ditch bucket's design allows for longer bucket lifespan than standard excavator buckets, as well as a more positive gripping capability when used opposite of any type of thumb, according to Amulet.

"We have had countless requests by customers asking that Amulet bring back their general-purpose bucket line", said Mark Elliott, Amulet's national sales manager. "For a number of years foreign-made buckets flooded the market putting small companies like Amulet at a competitive disadvantage, but the tide is slowly turning, and we are now hearing from folks looking for a quality, American-made bucket built here in the U.S.

"And being a thumb manufacturer, we took it a bit further and designed a true, general-purpose bucket with a unique profile that maximizes the gripping ability and overall capability of the excavator," he added. "Digging, demolition, land-clearing, rock work. You name it. Equipment operators love it."

For nearly 45 years Amulet has been known for their thumbs, rippers, rakes, couplers, hydraulic tilt buckets and railroad buckets. With the addition of backhoe and small excavator buckets, Amulet will continue to be the first call for equipment dealers, rental yards and end-users alike who are needing quick availability, unbeatable personal customer service and a great attachment selection for their next project, according to Amulet.
