The patented V-Raptor Bucket from Leading Edge Attachments, Inc. is a ripper/bucket combination for excavators and backhoes that allows the operator to rip rock, coral, or frozen ground with the maximum breakout force; pry out and carry stumps or cradle boulders; rip a clean narrow V trench for laying utilities; plus scoop and load material. This functionality allows the operator to own a ripper and be able to scoop and remove ripped debris without requiring the tool or machine change to use another bucket. Manufactured in the U.S., the bucket is made of high-strength HARDOX 400 steel slabs for abusive or cold weather conditions.
