Applications
What can you do with our padding buckets?
Oil and gas pipelines
Padding buckets are easy to transport onsite wherever they are needed. REMU Padding Buckets are also available with number of different blade configurations to ensure that your padding material meets the requirements.
Utility lines
In certain environments a padding bucket is the only option. When a utility line was laid up a ski slope in Aspen, the padding bucket was the most convenient way to prepare padding material.
Cable excavations
The number of padding buckets working on cable excavations is increasing as more and more cables are buried underground to improve reliability of power distribution grids. This bucket was used for padding cables near a newly established windmill park.
