Tapco Inc., St. Louis, Missouri, U.S., manufactures one of the most widely accepted lines of nonmetallic elevator buckets in the industry. Tapco stocks over 1 million buckets in 178 sizes made from the highest grades of polyethylene, polyurethane and nylon. Aluminum, ductile iron and fabricated steel buckets are available by request.
Popular bucket styles include CC-HD (Heavy Duty), CC-XD (Xtreme Duty) and Super EuroBucket. The CC-XD is molded with 35%-50% more resin than the classic CC-HD – to guarantee very dense, long wearing surfaces. Super EuroBuckets replace steel buckets and provide equal or greater capacity for elevators. Tapco introduced patented CCXD-LP (CC Xtreme Duty Low Profile) buckets with “distinctive breaks” on the bottom for clean discharge and low-profile backs for closer spacing on the belt. They are available in 15 sizes from 12x7 to 24x10. Many sizes also available as a CCHD-LP (CC Heavy Duty Low Profile). State-of-the-art injection molding machines assure the most consistent product in the industry. Strong, thick walls “give” and “yield” to withstand hang-ups and return to their original shape.
Tapco also maintains 15 million elevator bolts in 60 sizes in six styles: No. 1 Norway, No. 3 Eclipse Slotted, Fanged, Pointed Fanged, Western 3-Prong and Reference 70 with mating oval washer – available in carbon steel, zinc plate and stainless steel.
Tapco also has a large inventory of abrasion-resistant sheeting, hanger bearings, drag flights and belt splices. For more information, contact Tapco at 1.314.739.9191 or visit www.tapcoinc.com
