Top Hat Bush Bucket Kit to suit Hitachi EX2500 and EX2600 Excavators

Bucket

OEM Ref: N/A Geo Ref: 11539682

Geographe Replacement Parts™ are designed and engineered to be equal to that of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). They are available as individual parts, part assemblies or complete kits, all offered with the equivalent OEM warranty.

The Geographe Enhanced Performance (EP) Bucket Top Hat Bush (4459227) in the Refurb Bucket Kit is engineered for the Bucket arrangement on Hitachi EX2500 and EX2600 Excavators. Standard OEM bushes and thrust plates in this location are prone to premature wear, which can lead to excessive movement, misalignment, and damage to mounting faces. Geographe’s EP design integrates the bushing and thrust plate into a single, more robust component. Manufactured using advanced materials and gas carburisation heat treatment, the Top Hat Bush maintains OEM tolerance for longer, minimising wear and reducing downtime. This design improvement extends service life under dynamic mining loads, helping keep excavation systems operating reliably.
Reduces maintenance downtime and labour costs through faster installation Improves grease distribution for extended component wear life One-piece construction resists movement under dynamic load conditions

“The Caterpillar Haul Truck Ball Stud Removal Tool has reduced the time to remove ball studs from 12 hours per truck to just 1 hour. The risk of damaging jacks throughout the process has also been removed. This initiative represents a significant cost and time reduction while also improving safety for our maintainers.”
