475-5482: Bucket Tip

The Cat® K Series™ system features a twist-on design and vertical retainer which delivers reliable retention, as well as easy installation and removal.

Penetration Plus tips offer a low-profile shape that provides optimal sharpness, penetration and digging ability throughout tip life. In addition, these genuine Cat tips resist blunting and self-sharpen during wear, resulting in less down time, reduced operating costs and increased productivity.
