Single-line clamshell buckets are primarily used for unloading bulk commodities when port cranes are not available, necessitating the use of shipboard cranes.

Our Remote-controlled single-line clamshell buckets feature faster cycling time, easy maintenance, industry-leading ease of control, and optional controlled opening to aid in controlling discharge.

Styles Include:

  • Manual trip, where the bucket is opened by someone pulling a cable to trip the latch mechanism.
  • Auto trip, where the bucket is opened by touching down the bucket to trip the latch mechanism.
  • Radio remote-controlled, where the bucket is opened by a remote-control device that trips the latch mechanism.

Available Sizes Include:

  • Manual & Auto trip: – Up to 8 cubic yards
  • Remote-Controlled – 5 to 15 cubic yards

Atlas-SSI can also help address your needs with custom sizes upon request.
