Typically, the bucket width should be wider than the tires or tracks of the loader. The attachment should also have a recommended loader capacity rating that matches or is lower than the loader lift capacity.

To prevent potential overloading issues, compare the loader’s lifting capacity and tipping weight to the weight of the attachment plus the estimated weight of a load. Different materials will change the estimated weight of a load. Use caution with dense items like rocks.

Contact your local dealer or Virnig at 800-648-2408 for more information regarding proper width.

This Virnig Bucket has a 66 degree back angle. The bucket back angle affects the rollback and dump angles of a skid steer. If the angle on the back is too large the bucket may not roll back enough, and if there’s not enough back angle, the bucket may not dump properly. The higher or more vertical the back angle the more volume the bucket is able to hold.

V40, V50, and V60 series Snow/Light Material Buckets are designed to serve different purposes and machine sizes. Naturally, some materials and features will be different depending on the model. For a side by side analysis, see the table under the “Compare” tab.

Yes, Virnig V20, V50, and V60 Snow/Light Material Buckets can be ordered without windows.

Note: V40 Snow/Light Material Buckets do not have visibility windows.

Virnig Manufacturing recommends using only standard Bolt-On Edges with the Snow/Light Material Bucket, but Serrated Edges can be installed if desired.

The 72” V50 Snow Bucket (MSHV72) measures 26.6 cubic feet, or roughly 1 cubic yard, struck capacity.

The high capacity design makes them ideal for moving snow and granular materials such as mulch, grain, wood shavings, and fertilizer (See next question).

Yes, the V50 and V60 series buckets can be ordered without windows and the bucket should be ordered with full welds instead of stitch welds to prevent corrosion and leakage. These options must be specified when ordering.

The V60 Utility Bucket is dimensionally similar to the V40 Snow/Light material bucket, but is built heavier. With more gusseting, wear bars, weld, and steel thickness, the V60 Utility Bucket is a suitable heavy duty option for customers.

Virnig uses NitroSteel® cylinder rods because they are a superior performing alternative to chrome plating. The finish offers improved corrosion resistance and better grease retention.

Chrome plated cylinder rods can flake or pit and destroy the seals or other internal components; resulting in downtime and expensive repairs.

A NitroSteel® rod will perform better and increase the service life of a cylinder, making it the cost-effective choice. Learn more about the benefits of the NitroSteel® process.
