A crusher attachment for excavator is a heavy-duty bucket with a built-in jaw crusher. You can install it on your excavator just like a standard bucket. It uses the hydraulic power of your excavator to crush big stones into small pieces right on the working site.
Many construction teams choose this tool because it changes waste into useful materials. You do not need to buy a big, expensive stationary crushing machine. You do not need to pay for trucks to move big rocks away. You can just use your own excavator to crush stone, concrete, and bricks anytime.
This equipment helps people save a lot of money in demolition and recycling work. YG is a professional manufacturer of this tool. We design every crusher attachment for excavator to help you get more profit from your daily projects.

How An Excavator Crusher Works On Site
Understanding how an excavator crusher works can help your operators get the best results. The excavator bucket scoops up the hard materials, such as river stones, granite, or concrete blocks. Then, the operator turns on the hydraulic system.
Inside the bucket, a powerful hydraulic motor drives an eccentric shaft. This shaft makes the moving jaw plate move back and forth against the fixed jaw plate. The space between the two plates gets smaller and larger. When the space closes, the rocks are crushed quickly.
- The rocks fall down through the bottom opening automatically when they become small enough.
- The operator can adjust the bottom opening size to change the final output size of the stones.
- The whole process happens inside the bucket, so it is very safe for people working around the machine.
- You can load the crushed stones directly into a truck or spread them on the road.
Key Applications For Excavator Rock Crusher Bucket
An excavator rock crusher bucket is a very useful tool for many different industries. If you have an excavator, adding this bucket will help you take on more types of jobs and win more contracts.
- Road Construction: You can crush old asphalt and road base stones on site, then use them immediately to make the new road foundation.
- Demolition Recycling: When you pull down old buildings, this bucket crushes concrete blocks and separates the iron rebar easily.
- Quarry and Mining: It helps small quarries crush granite, limestone, and marble without investing in huge crushing plants.
- Utility Pipeline Trenching: You can crush the dug-out rocks on site and use the small gravel to bury the water or gas pipes directly.
Choose The Right Rock Crusher Bucket For Excavator (Global Cases)
Selecting a suitable rock crusher bucket for excavator depends heavily on your local geological conditions and specific project needs. To help you choose, here are two real-world application examples from our global clients showing how this tool performs in the field.
Case 1: Basalt Crushing in Indonesia (Road Project)
A road contractor in Sumatra, Indonesia, needed to build a 20-kilometer plantation road. The local ground was full of hard basalt and river stones, but bringing in a huge stationary crushing plant was too expensive due to the remote jungle location.
The client installed our YG-3 model rock crusher bucket for excavator onto their 22-ton crawler excavator.
- Material and Output: They scooped up hard basalt blocks and crushed them down to 15-130mm gravel right on the roadbed.
- Performance: The bucket provided a stable oil flow of 140 l/min and a working pressure of 220 bar, processing around 31 cubic meters of hard stone per hour.
- Result: The contractor saved 100% of the transportation costs because they did not need to buy gravel from a distant quarry or pay for dump trucks.
Case 2: Concrete Recycling in Poland (Urban Demolition)
An urban renewal company in Warsaw, Poland, was tasked with demolishing an old industrial warehouse. The site was surrounded by residential buildings, meaning large crushing equipment was banned due to strict local noise and dust regulations.
They chose our YG-2 model excavator rock crusher bucket paired with a 16-ton excavator to work in the tight city space.
- Material and Output: The tool with a 0.55m³ load capacity crushed reinforced concrete blocks down to a clean 15-60mm aggregate.
- Smart Separation: The jaw crusher easily cracked the concrete away from the internal iron rebars, allowing the operator to pull the metal out with a magnet later.
- Result: The company reached a production of 23 cubic meters per hour and recycled 85% of the demolition waste on-site, completely avoiding city landfill fees.
Quality Details Of YG Crusher Attachment For Excavator
As a real manufacturer, YG focuses on every small detail to make our crusher attachment for excavator highly reliable. We know that downtime costs you money, so we build our buckets to work in hard environments without stopping.
