About Carrus Components
Carrus Components AB is a Swedish attachment manufacturer in Sävsjö. The company designs and manufactures tools for excavators, compact loaders and wheel loaders and states that its work spans machines from compact classes up to heavy construction sizes. Carrus keeps design and production close together, which supports both standard products and customised solutions.
What does Carrus Components manufacture?
- Excavator digging, grading and specialist buckets
- Loader buckets and high-tip material buckets
- Quick couplers and tilt hitches
- Grapples and handling tools
- Pallet forks
- Sweeping and other contractor attachments
Machines and applications
The range covers excavators, mini excavators, compact loaders and wheel loaders. Carrus also produces attachments for other handling machines, so the mount and rated load should be checked against the exact carrier rather than inferred from product appearance.
Choosing Carrus Components equipment
Verify machine class, coupler interface, hydraulic requirements and attachment mass. For tilt hitches and hydraulic tools, include hose routing and control functions. For forks and high-tip buckets, calculate the effect of attachment weight and load centre on the loader’s rated capacity.
Product range in context
The Carrus Components attachment range includes buckets, quick couplers, tilt units, grapples, pallet forks, and sweepers. Typical applications include excavation and digging, grading and site preparation, material handling and lifting, and road maintenance and sweeping. Compatibility depends on the exact attachment model, carrier size, mounting interface, hydraulic system and intended duty cycle. Compare the relevant product family first, then verify model-specific dimensions, weight, oil flow, operating pressure and control requirements for the machine and job.
What to compare within the Carrus Components range
Within the Carrus Components range, specifications differ by product family. Compare the main dimensions, carrier requirements, hydraulic demands and working limits shown below before treating two models as direct alternatives.
| Product area | Typical role | Key specification checks |
|---|---|---|
| Buckets | Digging, loading, grading or material handling. | Bucket width, volume, cutting edge or teeth, coupler interface and attachment mass. |
| Quick couplers | Rapid and repeatable tool changes. | Pin dimensions or coupler standard, locking method, safety features, attachment geometry and hydraulic connections. |
| Tilt units | Adding lateral tool articulation without full rotation. | Tilt angle, service weight, coupler interface, hydraulic plumbing and added build height. |
| Grapples | Sorting, loading and material handling. | Jaw geometry, opening, volume, rotator interface, service weight and hydraulic functions. |
| Pallet forks | Handling pallets and unit loads. | Rated capacity, tine length, load centre, frame width and coupler interface. |
| Sweepers | Road, yard and site cleaning. | Brush width and diameter, hydraulic flow, collection method, side-shift or angle functions and carrier interface. |
Where Carrus Components products fit
Carrus Components equipment can be configured differently depending on the job. Application-specific geometry, wear protection, hydraulic demand, working reach and carrier balance should be considered alongside the headline attachment type.
- Excavation & digging: bucket or tool geometry, breakout requirements, coupler dimensions and machine balance should be matched to the material and trench or loading task.
- Grading & site preparation: working width, controllability, visibility, attachment height and fine movement influence accuracy and productivity.
- Material handling & lifting: rated loads, load centre, gripping geometry, rotation and the carrier lifting chart must be checked together.
- Road maintenance & sweeping: working width, side-shift or angle functions, brush or cutting wear and hydraulic flow are common specification checks.
Compatibility and installation checks
For Carrus Components products, relevant carrier types include excavators, mini excavators, and wheel loaders. A technically compatible attachment still needs to fit the machine, coupler and hydraulic system as a complete installed package. Compare mounting dimensions, operating weight, hydraulic flow and pressure, hose routing and any required electrical or control interfaces before ordering.
- Carrier operating weight and the carrier manufacturer’s permitted attachment mass.
- Available hydraulic flow, working pressure, return-line requirements and the number of auxiliary circuits.
- Pin dimensions, coupler standard, mounting geometry and any required adapter or bracket.
- Control-system, electrical or sensor compatibility where the attachment uses integrated functions.
- Overall attachment height, working envelope, transport dimensions and hose routing.
