    Stick to Bucket

    OEM Ref: N/A Geo Ref: 11540339

    Whenever a part is referred to as Modified (MOD), it means it is a Geographe manufactured part that differs from the standard OEM design. Geographe MOD parts may also require a modification to the machine to complete fit-up.

    The Geographe Enhanced Performance (EP) Stick to Bucket Top Hat Bush Kit is engineered for the Stick to Bucket arrangement on Hitachi EX1200 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.”
