Tapco plastic elevator buckets There are some big advantages in using plastic buckets over the traditional metal ones. Firsty, they eliminate the possibility of explosion-causing spark generation from foreign objects circulating in the elevator or from bent or torn metal buckets. They are also impact absorbing, allowing “bend” or “yield” to bypass an obstruction subsequently returning to their original shape. There are also no sharp edges offering safer handling by maintenance personnel. Plastic resin buckets will also never oxidise or rust, and are lighter weight than a metal bucket of the same size, saving energy and wear on the system. Tapco offer a choice of FDA compliant resins that can be tailored to satisfy specific application requirements based on material being conveyed and are safe for use in human food products and livestock feed.
