    Q&A on our Padding Buckets

    Is it complicated to use?

    No, a brief introduction to good screening practices is all you need to put this powerful tool to work for you.

    I need 5/8” grain size, is it possible to produce that with a REMU bucket?

    Yes, blade spacing of 1” (24mm) gives you a grain size of 5/8” (16mm) which is normally required for padding material. This is the most requested blade configuration for pipeline padding. A number of other grain sizes are available, and our sales team is happy to assist you to choose the best option.

    Why choose the REMU Padding bucket?

    Our padding buckets are designed to be extremely durable and eliminate all the extra problems you don’t need when working in a remote location. The frame of the bucket is made to last even when you need to move those large rocks.

    Are these buckets available for rent?

    In the USA, buckets are available for rent. Please contact our US Sales team for more information.

    What maintenance does the bucket need?

    Daily field maintenance means checking just two service points.
