Elevate Every Task with Sibom’s Heavy-Duty 4-in-1 Combo Bucket

1. A True Multi-Purpose Game Changer

Job sites have become leaner, deadlines shorter, and operators busier than ever. Swapping attachments fifteen times a day kills momentum—and profit. Sibom’s standard bucket with grapple solves that problem in one decisive stroke: a skid steer combo bucket that works as a clamshell, a dozer blade, a high-capacity material bucket, and a serrated-edge grapple. Whether you call it a skid steer 4-in-1 bucket, clam bucket, or dual-function grapple and dozer blade, the result is the same—one tool that handles everything from excavation to final cleanup without your operator ever leaving the cab.

2. Four Tools, One Hydraulic Package

At the heart of the design is a matched pair of 2.5-inch-bore, 8-inch-stroke hydraulic cylinders built from induction-hardened chrome rod and honed DOM tubing. These cylinders deliver 9,800 lb of clamping force—enough to grip telephone poles or crushed concrete equally well. Paired with a quick attach skid steer bucket plate, they plug into any standard auxiliary circuit. The control logic is simple: close the curl circuit to scoop, actuate AUX to open the clamshell, bump reverse to back-drag. In five minutes, even a novice operator is running complex moves like a pro.

3. Built for Punishment—And Built to Last

Sibom starts each bucket base edge receives a ¾-inch × 6-inch bolt-on cutting edge standard, or you can spec bolt-on teeth or cutting edge modules for more aggressive ground penetration. A reinforced bucket bottom uses full-length wear runners that double as stiffeners, while a heavy boxed heel stops blade twist when dozing. All seams are triple-pass fillet welds performed by AWS-certified robots to guarantee 100 % fusion.

The net result is a heavy-duty combo bucket that outlives the average skid steer lease cycle—and still has resale value left over.

4. Four-in-One Functionality Explained

1. Loader Bucket Mode – Scoop soil, gravel, or snow like any skid steer material bucket. The round-back shell self-loads for rapid fill in sticky clay.
2. Dozer Blade Mode – Open the jaws 90 °, tilt forward, and you have a low-angle blade for rough-grading, windrowing snow, or back-blading rock.
3. Clamshell Grapple Mode – Close the top jaw onto debris for storm cleanup, demolition sorting, or log and pipe handling bucket tasks.
4. Back-Drag/Scraper Mode – Crack the jaw 2–3 inches and pull in reverse to leave a crisp, level finish—perfect for soil, gravel, and sand leveling.

This multi-purpose skid steer bucket eliminates half a trailer of single-function attachments and makes room in the yard for revenue-generating gear.

5. Hydraulics That Match Your Machine

High performance means nothing if the attachment overwhelms your flow rate. Sibom sizes cylinder orifice and jaw mass so that a 15 GPM system cycles from fully open to clamp in 2.3 seconds, while a 23 GPM high-flow line drops that to 1.5 seconds. An internal high-strength hydraulic cylinder bucket relief valve protects seals if an operator dead-heads the jaws.

• Multi-fit pickup system accepts ISO, Bob Tach™, and Euro couplers.
• Flat-face couplers come pre-installed; CASE or CAT X-Series fittings available.
• Optional pilot check holds the jaw closed even if the engine shuts off midway through a lift.

6. From Agriculture to Demolition—One Bucket Fits All

The Sibom combo is more than a construction bucket; it’s an every-industry workhorse.

• Agriculture loader attachment: Spread silage, grab round bales, scrape feed alleys clean.
• Landscaping combo bucket: Strip turf, haul decorative rock, set giant potted trees with the grapple.
• Forestry grapple attachment: Stack slash piles, load mills, lever out stump sections.
• Municipal multi-use bucket: Clear snow in winter, scoop storm debris in spring, spread salt in fall.
• Recycling facility bucket: Sort scrap, crush light appliances, feed shredders with one operator.

Its versatility turns a compact loader into a year-round profit machine.

7. Operator-Centric Design

Sibom polled 300 operators before finalizing the bucket’s geometry. The results show up in small touches that boost productivity:

• Sight notches in the upper jaw let drivers track the cutting edge even with the clam closed.
• Grease-from-ground zerk banks keep maintenance safe and quick.
• Back-drag ribs on the heel create a micro-squeegee effect, leaving surfaces cleaner on the first pass.
• Dual drain ports empty slurry at shift end so frozen mud never locks jaws overnight.

These details turn an attachment into a trusted crew member.

8. Maintenance Tips for a Long Service Life

1. Pressure-wash hinge pockets weekly, then hit every zerk—eight pumps each.
2. Check jaw pivot torque every 250 hrs. Lug spec is 230 ft-lb.
3. Flip or replace the bucket with bolt-on cutting edges at ½-in wear to maintain grade accuracy.
4. Inspect hydraulic hoses for abrasion; replace if outer jacket shows steel braid.
5. Store jaws cracked open 1 in to relieve seal compression.

Follow the plan and your heavy load bucket for compact loader will likely outlast your next two machines.

9. Cost of Ownership & ROI

A Sibom CB-72 lists around $2,300. Renting a grapple ($125/day) plus a dozer bucket ($95/day) for just 11 workdays already exceeds that price. Factor in fuel savings from fewer idle minutes and a two-year structural warranty, and break-even typically lands in month three for busy contractors.
