How to Identify Common Styles of Bucket Teeth

Esco conical style teeth are usually identified by the rectangular top pin hole in the tooth. The locking system is usually a two piece steel pin and rubber lock. The lock is set inside the nose of the adapter and then the tooth is put on and steel pin driven into the top of the tooth.

Esco Heli/Vertalok teeth are usually identified by the lack of any pin holes in the tooth, however there are 2 outside “ears” on the pocket of the tooth. Helilok is a 1 piece horseshoe shaped pin/lock system and the Vertalok is a 2 piece pin & plug system.
H&L STYLE
H&L style teeth are most commonly identified by the oblong side pin hole in the tooth. The locking system is usually a one piece steel/rubber flex pin. There are some uncommon top pin H&L teeth. They are the same of pin system.

How to Identify Common Styles of Bucket Teeth
CATERPILLAR
Caterpillar ripper teeth are identified by the vertically oblong holes. They use a steel round pin that has a snap ring in the middle of the pin.
ESCO
Esco ripper teeth are identified by the ears protruding from the side on the pocket. There is a round hole in the ear to allow for the steel pin & rubber bushing locking system.
H&L
H&L ripper teeth look similar to their bucket teeth with the side oblong hole and standard square box. For the locking system they use a select rubber flex pain.
KOMATSU
The komatsu ripper tooth is easily mistaken for cat style. It uses the same style of steel pin snap ring locking system. The only minor difference is a round pin hole on the side.
ATECO
Smaller Ateco ripper teeth have a std. style pocket that usually very tall. The larger teeth have a easily identifiable rounded pocket. They both use a 1 piece steel/rubber flex pain.
