Grain Leg Uses Plastic Buckets
✖ |
When our grain leg blew down 1 1/2 years ago we rebuilt it and at the same time replaced the original steel buckets with plastic ones that measure about 7 in. high by 10 in. wide. We bought them from a local company that sells components for grain legs and fertilizer plants, etc. The plastic buckets are corrosion resistant and are usually used by fertilizer companies. They were priced comparable to steel buckets. The only problem is that if they get bent you can't beat them back into shape like steel ones. We also bought a new set of belts to support the buckets.
