Offering unparalleled manufacturing precision, Cat® J Series tips protect the buckets of your machines from damage. Our Ground Engaging Tools (GET) are designed specifically for the DNA of your Cat iron and deliver consistent, superior protection.

Utilizing industry-standard side-pinned design, genuine Cat bucket tips perform across a variety of applications boosting your equipment’s versatility. Installation and removal are quick with the standard pin and retainer system. Or you can make life even easier by retrofitting with our innovative hammerless J Series CapSure™ System.

Featuring a leading edge with 60% less cross-sectional area, Penetration tips provide maximum penetration with densely-compacted materials. The single center rib self-sharpens as it wears, increasing wear life and reducing downtime. We also offer Penetration tips with Abrasion Resistant Material (ARM). Cast from steel with properties that maintain hardness for long wear life, our durable teeth make it possible for your machines to deliver the performance you demand.
