Photo Identification Help
Identify Your Bucket Teeth by Photo
When a part number is missing or unreadable, clear photos of the tooth, adapter, locking area, markings, and dimensions can help narrow the possible tooth system.
Clean and show the complete system
Remove heavy dirt and photograph both the tooth and the parts that control its fitment.
Tooth profile
Show the tip, body, side profile, pocket opening, and visible wear.
Adapter nose
Show the shape, seating surfaces, wear, damage, and tooth-to-adapter fit.
Locking system
Show the pin hole, pin, retainer, groove, and installation direction.
Photos to prepare
Use bright, sharp, close images with the full component inside the frame.
Complete tooth — front view
Show the overall width, point, shoulders, and visible wear pattern.
Complete tooth — side view
Show the full length, side profile, pocket position, and lock location.
Tooth pocket and opening
Photograph the internal pocket geometry after removing dirt and loose material.
Adapter nose without the tooth
Show the complete nose, seating surfaces, pin hole, and any rounding or damage.
Pin, retainer, and locking area
Lay the parts beside the tooth and include the installed orientation when possible.
Markings and dimensions
Photograph all numbers and add a ruler or caliper for key measurements.
Make every photo easier to compare
Small changes in photo quality can prevent confusion between similar tooth systems.
Use a plain background
Place the part on a clean, contrasting surface with no other objects covering the edges.
Keep the camera square
Avoid extreme angles and wide-angle distortion when showing dimensions or profiles.
Add a scale reference
Place a ruler beside the part, but do not cover markings or critical geometry.
Include the machine context
Add machine brand, model, bucket type, application, quantity, and working material.
