CAT Excavator Bucket Field Repair and Welding in Wright City

Another late-night equipment repair finished up and ready to go back to work.

A cracked excavator bucket doesn't care what time it is or how tight your schedule is. When a CAT excavator bucket took damage out on a job site near Wright City, MO, we got the call and rolled out - service truck lit up, under a full moon, ready to work. That's what field welding is all about.

This cutting edge had a broken weld holding it to the bucket. We gouged out the damaged area, prepared the cutting edge and bucket, and burned it back in solid to get this machine operating again.

Keeping equipment running is what we do.

We've done enough of these repairs around the Wright City area to know exactly how to handle it.
