Gradeblade is an economical attachment that converts your backhoe or excavator’s digging bucket into a grading tool. You can grade trenches with a Crumbing Blade which is ordered the same width as the bucket. Squeegee Blades, wider than the bucket, are available up to 10 foot wide. Smooth top surfaces easily and quickly without shovels and rakes with either blade.
Crumbing Blades are ordered to the width of bucket.
