Dare To Compare: How does your bucket stack up?

CC-MAX elevator buckets are the latest addition to the innovative agricultural bucket designs offered by Maxi-Lift. “We set the standard for bucket durability with the Tiger-Tuff and HD-MAX, because we built it to outlast competitive products. The new CC-MAX is no different. We made it thicker and longer wearing than other bucket brands. Our customers asked and we delivered.” Said Bo Fisher, Director of Agricultural products for Maxi-Lift.

The CC-MAX was developed in response to market surveys indicating many users wanted the CC style, but with the long life of the HD-MAX. Maxi-Lift designed the CC-MAX to outlast existing plastic CC buckets on the market, by adding up to 20% more material to the critical wear areas, while supplying up to 5% more capacity. The CC-MAX was specifically engineered to meet the tough demands required by today’s elevator operators.

The additional style gives Maxi-Lift four distinct agricultural bucket designs including the Tiger-Tuff Maximum Duty, HD-MAX Heavy Duty, the new CC-MAX Heavy Duty and America’s Original Plastic Bucket, the Dura-Buket. No other manufacturer has as many options.

“Maxi-Lift’s CC-MAX clearly out distances competitors CC buckets with its thicker design features. All of our bucket designs are thicker, long wearing designs that stand up in tough applications.” Said Paul Phillips, Vice President of Sales. “Maxi-Lift puts customer satisfaction first by reacting to customer needs, and supplying the industry’s best buckets.”

Introduced at the Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS) show in February, the product was an instant success. Maxi-Lift has already begun shipping orders of the new bucket to grain facilities around the United States. “We knew we had a winner, and the interest generated at the trade show confirmed that.” Said Fisher. The distinctive gray color was chosen to differentiate the CC-MAX from lesser products.

The new product is initially being offered in the thirteen most popular sizes, with the full line still to come. Technical information about the CC-MAX is available on the Maxi-Lift website at www.maxilift.com, or from any of our staff.
