Skid Steer Attachments

Do you have skid steer attachments for concrete mixing and pouring?
We have two different types of concrete mixers that attach to skid steers. Both have their advantages and benefits. The skid steer drum mixer is based on the rotating cylinder and attaches to your skid steer with a quick tach. The scoop in place bucket mixer attaches to your skid steer and can scoop up dirt and gravel, mix with cement, and pour from the same piece of equipment. We also have a concrete placement bucket you can use that features a high back to make it splash proof and no moving parts that will wear over time.

When do skid steer forkframe attachments come in useful?
If you are loading and moving cumbersome or uneven materials, such as a pile of railroad ties, you can turn your skid steer into the equivalent of a fork truck. The advantage these skid steer forkframe attachments offer over many standard fork trucks is a captive fork design that holds the forks steady and prevents them from moving when you dump the load. Forkframes also have frame openings in the back that allow you to see what you are doing when you are maneuvering into position and moving materials.

What types of skid steer attachments do you have for specialized industrial and agricultural loading tasks?
Skid steer buckets can be used for any number of industrial and agricultural tasks. You can order attachments made specifically for scooping and moving dirt, sifting out small debris from larger materials, moving snow and light materials, utility work, hauling fertilizer, and cottonseed transport. Skid steer buckets feature hard, beveled carbon side blades prevent the sides from being worn. The bottom of each skid steer bucket is strengthened by welded seams and scuff bars so you can drag the attachment over the surface of the materials you are working with.

What skid steer attachments do you recommend for storm cleanup and debris removal?
Root grapplers and grapple buckets are invaluable for cleanup and demolition of storm debris. They provide ideal grip and lifting ability to get not only tree roots out of the ground, but also to move and stack fallen limbs, sawed up tree trunks, and brush piles. The cutting edge is notched for optional customization with a bolt-on-blade. Intermediate bottom tines can be added to reduce gaps and increase gripping and pickup power.

Do you have any skid steer loader attachments that can used in hard-to-reach places?
For elevated, hard to reach places that require you to lift material weighing as much as 1,000 lbs, Easy Rack recommends attaching a crane jib to your skid steer. These attachments add 5ʼ to loader lift high and will increase the horizontal reach of your skid steer by 6ʼ. Contractors love crane jibs because they can be used for a wide range of jobs such as handling and setting pipe, loading generators, and light steel erection. Landscapers love these skid steer attachments just as much as contractors. They use crane jibs to load, carry, and set trees and large plants. The extra lift height these remarkable loader attachments create makes it possible to safely pick trees up above the balance point.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of used pallet racks, commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting,and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide.

Fork Truck & Forklift Bucket Attachment

What is a bucket attachment?
A bucket attachment is a device that fastens onto the front end of a skid steer or forklift, transforming it into a device for a specialized application. Depending on the brand and model of the fork truck or skid steer, and the intended use of the bucket, it will have either a quick tach attachment or a universal fit.

Why should we invest in skid steer and forklift buckets?
Because by attaching them too one or two forklifts or skid steers you can enable two or three pieces of heavy construction equipment to perform multiple specialized tasks rapidly, safely, and accurately.

Why would I want a bucket attachment for my forklift? Shouldn't I just buy a loader?
Not so fast. Some loaders cannot reach into smaller places, and they are extremely expensive.
Forklift bucket attachments offer a more cost effective and streamlined design allows them to access hard-to-reach places. Forklift buckets with quick tach attachments are great for loading sand and gravel, and when you are finished at the end of the day, you can use them for site cleanup. In extreme northern climates, they are routinely employed to move snow. Universal, “slip over the forks” buckets are frequently used to load and unload gravel from roof tops and to remove trash.

What forklift attachment works best for masonry and moving small quantities of dirt, sand, and gravel?
The self-dumping bucket is a favorite forklift attachment for landscape work, masonry, and for moving small quantities of dirt, sand, small rocks, mulch, fertilizer and top soil. It slips right over the forks of any modern fork truck in a matter of minutes, and it needs no hydraulics and or forklift modifications to get started.

How many different models of skid steer bucket attachments do you offer?
We have six in total, ranging from buckets used for hauling dirt and agricultural products to snow and light material. The newest model that has just emerged on the market is the ribbed-bottom or “skeleton” bucket attachment. It has become very popular, very quickly, in applications that require sifting smaller debris out of the way.

Are root grapplers only good for pulling up tree roots?
No. Root grapplers make it easy to move bulky, hard-to-handle materials safely and quickly. Any time there is a major hurricane, tropical storm, and tornado, they are usually the very first and best choice for demolition and cleanup of storm debris. Perhaps the greatest benefit they offer is their ability to sift out dirt when moving larger piles of trash and heavy dirt. Utility lines and cables remain safe because the tines of a root grapple bucket attachment curve upward and outward to prevent accidental snagging.

How effective is a concrete placement bucket attachment?
Quite often, it is more effective than much more complex and expensive equivalents. It has no moving parts and therefore has less to break. It is one of those classic cases of how something simple works better than something complicated.

Skid Steer Buckets

Each of these skid steel bucket types can be customized. We can have heavy duty shanks welded to the cutting blade to increase pickup power. These teeth measure 2-1/4" across the point and weld straight onto the blade. In other applications that are extremely demanding, adding a punched blade with bolt-on-blade will increase the life of your skid steer bucket. Users consistently report an increase of up to 3 times the wear when they add this option.

Skid steer buckets can be used for a wide variety of tasks. Built for rugged applications and made to last, Easy Rack carries five basic standard models for a number of applications:

• Low profile duty skid steer buckets are used to haul dirt.
• Heavy duty buckets are made for utility work.
• Agricultural units for moving fertilizer.
• Special skid steer buckets are used by farmers to move seed.
• Snow buckets for plowing and light material moving are ideal for extreme temperatures in northern climates.

Key features make these heavy duty skid-steer fork lift attachments must-have purchase for your construction site. Buckets also feature dual safety stops to make them more controllable, and beveled hard carbon steel side blades that reinforce and protect the bucket sides. Skid steer buckets are strengthened even more by seams that are fully welded. The flat, square bottom of each bucket type allows you to back drag the unit over dirt to level it. Scuff bars reinforce this area to prevent excessive wear. A 3/8", plate steel universal quick tach allows skid-steer buckets to fit almost any loader brand.

Standard type steer buckets cannot be used for optimal results in some applications, however. Because they are solid, they scoop up everything. A new, ribbed-bottom design now makes it possible to actually scoop and sift for certain projects that require only larger materials to be moved. The ribbed-bottom skid steer bucket features an open ribbed bottom that sifts dirt and smaller materials to the ground without picking up and moving larger materials.

Ribbed bottom skid steer buckets are low cost specialty tools that are excellent for virtually any specialized application. Everyone from demolition teams, scrap handling workers, farmers, and construction crews are beginning to use them more and more. Ribbed-bottom skid steer buckets are also becoming a rapid favorite among landscaping crews because they are ideal for moving rocks. They are also being used increasingly to move certain masonry materials, and debris cleanup crews prefer ribbed-bottom buckets because they sift out the dirt and sand when cleaning hazardous debris from a site.

Portable Concrete Bucket Mixers

Portable cement mixers transform skid-steers into mobile, ready mix units. Some are made with a rotating cylinder design, while others resemble scoop buckets that can then tilt upward to mix cement with raw materials and make concrete. The demand for portable cement drum mixers continues to rise as ready mix companies continue to raise their prices for concrete delivery concrete yardage costs (due to increases in fuel prices nationwide.) This wastes time and money any time crews have to wait for trucks to arrive, or purchase more concrete than they actually need.

Portable cement mixers eliminate unnecessary downtime, expenditure, and waste by allowing crews to mix cement and concrete on the spot whenever necessary. Both cement mixer drums and skid-steer bucket concrete mixers can be used by workers to mix only the cement and concrete they need for a particular task at hand. Both types of portable cement mixers give work crews onsite, ready-mix capability and do away with the hours of waiting many crews have to endure when third parties become involved in a project.

Easy Rack supplies construction companies with two types of portable cement mixers that attach to almost any skid-steer and make cement mixing portable, ergonomic, safe, and cost effective.

Concrete Mixer Drums are ideal for mixing both cement and concrete 6 cubic feet at a time.

• The rotating cylinder design makes this ideal for evenly mixing both cement and concrete.
• This mixer can handle 6 cubic feet-ideal of cement or concrete at a time.
• The mixer drum is powered by an independent hydraulic motor that mounts to the skid-steerʼs exterior.
• Universal quick-tach attachments allow portable cement mixers mount to almost any skid-steer units.
• This portable cement mixer drum is simple to use: just tilt it up to load it, transport it to the desired location, mix and tilt to pour.

If you have to make concrete on the spot with sand or gravel, skid-steer bucket concrete mixers are the best tools to use.

• If you are making concrete with sand or gravel on your construction site, use these units as buckets to scoop up these materials before adding your cement.
• Break your cement bags over the splitter on the side.
• Add water, mix, and discharge either by tilting the mixer downward or through a chute on the side.

Portable cement mixers allow your crew to mix concrete and cement on the spot using only a skid steer, water, and a basic raw materials readily available on the job site. This significantly reduces man hours, elimination of overtime, excessive expenditures on subcontracting ready mix suppliers, and time delays that can affect project completion.

Easy Rack has a number of other lifting, tilting, and material handling supplies in both used and new condition. Be sure to look at all your options today, and talk to a specialist about any customization requirements that will maximize the productivity.

Concrete Drum Mixers

What are concrete drum mixers?
They are skid steer attachments that resemble in appearance the larger cement mixers we often see on the back of ready mix trucks. Although much smaller and, these skid-steer attachments can often out-perform large mixing trucks and ready mix services. Skid-steer rotating drum mixers offer construction a cost-effective, time-efficient alternative to reliance on third party ready mix companies by allowing them to mix concrete on the spot whenever they choose to do so.

How can buying one or more mixer drums help our project?
It will certainly save you time and money. Rising fuel costs have forced ready mix companies to require minimum volume purchases, and if they do deliver less than the required minimum, the price is significantly higher than the normal yardage price.

Many work crews are now manually mixing and transporting concrete in wheel barrels. This is labor intensive and can easily run an operation into overtime. Drum mixers can do the job faster and much more ergonomically.

Are drum mixers easy to use?
Yes. All you have to do is mount the unit onto the skid steer, mix the concrete, move the drum into position, and tilt to place the concrete. You can make your own concrete on the spot whenever necessary, mix only the amount they require at the time, and rapidly move and pour it into place without spillage or waste of raw materials.

What features do concrete mixer drums have?
Easy Rack concrete drum mixers weigh only 225 lbs when empty, can mix 6 cubic feet of concrete at a time, and will attach to almost any skid-steer with its universal skid-steer quick-tach and 3/8” plate mounting components. The combination of a very basic design, rugged engineering, and material build makes the Easy Rack Concrete Mixer Drum ideal for the toughest of applications in any terrain or climate. You will quickly come to rely upon it as one of your most trusted pieces of equipment.

How does the drum mixer work?
It rotates under the power of an independent hydraulic motor that mounts externally to the skid-steer. This motor is secured by a rugged carrier bearing that helps support the load in transit and protects the motor and seals from wear and tear. This makes the entire mounting configuration extra secure and ensures uninterrupted, safe performance in the roughest terrain or the most exacting of rental conditions.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of used pallet racks, commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting,and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide.

Self Dumping Forklift Buckets

Self-dumping forklift provide a low-cost alternative to front in loaders for the occasional user who only needs loading and hauling work done on an intermittent basis. These forklift attachments slip right over the forks of your truck, transforming your fork lift into a loader into a matter of minutes. The self-dumping bucket does not require you to make any modification whatsoever to your forklift and it needs no hydraulic system for operation.

Self-dumping forklift buckets typically come in three different sizes: ¼, ½, and ¾ cubic feet. They are ideal for loading gravel, hauling dirt, and construction trash cleanup. They are also ideal tools for specialized masonry work and landscaping services. Moving earthworks with a loader might be efficient, but it is also expensive, and some loaders are too large to easily fit into confined areas near trees and gardens. Masonry work is also often performed in between the tight confines of two walls. In these areas, forklift buckets can maneuver much more safely in these tight quarters and take up less space—leaving workers more freedom of movement for manual tasks.

When the day is done, and it is time to clean up, do you really need 10 day labor guys to walk around and pick up trash? Why not have one licensed forklift driver use a self-dumping bucket to haul away piles of rubble, small broken boards, paper trash, ripped up boxes, and discarded containers. This can get the grounds cleaned up by 5PM more quickly and avoid the expense of overtime or the risk of injury that can occur during a simple cleanup op. Consider the value of eliminating excessive day labor costs for the one-time cost of construction cleanup tool that a single licensed fork truck driver can use over and over again.

Self-dumping forklift dirt buckets are also very easy to operate. Forks slip into the bucket support, securing the unit to the forklift while simultaneously allowing the bucket to pivot when the safety lock is disengaged. You can release the bucket from either a seated position or from the ground by using a remote rope release, or you can trigger the bucket while you are seated by using the handle at the back of the unit.

The self-dumping forklift bucket automatically resets itself after being lowered to the ground. The safety mechanism on the bucket prevents it from accidentally releasing its contents when it is being moved over rough ground. Heavy duty components and superb engineering ensure years of reliable performance from this simple—yet highly versatile--forklift attachment.
