CC-B Elevator Bucket
Fabricated Steel
The CC-style design features straight sides that minimize downlegging, with breaks in the bottom of the bucket to discharge over a wide range of elevator speeds.
Why Steel?
Steel buckets should be substituted for nonmetallic buckets when the heat becomes too excessive or when the bucket elevator carries extremely sharp products.

■ Tapco recommends using gross x .75, for usable capacity.
✽ Supplied with lip brace, lip brace is optional on other sizes at slightly higher cost.
Style:
CC-B
Design:
High speed centrifugal discharge.
Material:
Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel.
Method of Manufacture:
Fabricated (Spot welded).
Standard Construction:
The CC-B style bucket utilizes a 1-piece pressed formed design consisting of two end plates and a body. Please note that there is no taper on the sides of the bucket. The bottom is spot welded to the ends.
Construction Options:
Contact Tapco for recommendations.
Material Thickness:
18 ga., 16 ga., 14ga.
Drilling:
No charge for standard belt drillings.
Venting:
Venting available on request, contact Tapco for recommendations.
Usable Capacity:
Tapco recommends using 75% of gross, (100%) capacity.
Spacing:
Minimum bucket spacing has historically been nominal projection plus 2". Many style CC buckets, however, are being used at projection plus 1", and some even closer. For engineering purposes Tapco recommends using nominal projection plus 2".
Interchangeability:
Can be intermixed with existing fabricated and nonmetallic CC style buckets. If different weight buckets are mixed in, some care should be taken that the leg does not become too far out of balance. Check elevator for proper clearances. Contact Tapco for recommendations.
Installation:
Fanged elevator bolts and nylon insert lock nuts are recommended for pulleys 6" in diameter and over. No. 3 Eclipse slotted head elevator bolts are recommended for pulleys under 6" in diameter. Flat steel washers must be placed inside the bucket under the nuts. Check elevator for proper clearances.
Caution:
Welding and cutting on elevator legs without taking proper precautions is extremely dangerous and cause a violent explosion.
