276CXJ Curved Replacement Bucket Tine – 27-Inch Tapered

The HAYSTIX® 276CXJ curved replacement bucket tine is a complete tine-and-sleeve assembly for repairing or rebuilding specialty material-handling attachments. It measures 27 inches long by 1.375 inches in diameter and is rated at 1,800 pounds. Its upward-curved profile is designed to reach material close to the ground while helping the operator work around the front edge of a bucket or attachment frame.

The 276CXJ includes the matching keyed 110T sleeve/collar shown with the tine. Unlike a straight hay spear intended mainly to penetrate a bale, this specialty component is commonly selected for rock buckets, manure buckets, agricultural cleanup tools, and custom-fabricated tine systems. The complete attachment must be properly engineered and rated for the intended material and machine.

Replace a Worn Curved Tine and Restore Attachment Use

A bent from overload, cracked, badly worn, or missing bucket tine can keep an otherwise useful attachment out of service. The 276CXJ gives owners and fabricators a matched component for replacing both the curved tine and its mounting sleeve when the original parts are no longer serviceable. Buyers searching for a repair part should compare the original tine’s length, diameter, curve, sleeve dimensions, key position, and mounting direction before ordering.

The intentional curve is different from accidental damage. When installed in the correct orientation, the profile helps the point work nearer the surface for collecting or engaging:

• Rocks and loose stone
• Manure and bedding
• Farmyard debris
• Loose agricultural material
• Cleanup and light bulk material

Its compact 27-inch reach can improve control in confined areas where a longer straight tine could create unnecessary interference. The curve may also help maintain useful ground-level access as the bucket approaches loose material. Performance still depends on the attachment geometry, tine spacing, operator technique, and material being handled.

The published 1,800-pound rating applies to the individual tine, not automatically to the finished bucket, loader, welds, frame, or machine. The lowest-rated component determines the safe capacity of the completed system. Never use the curved tine as a substitute for a properly designed primary bale spear unless the entire attachment and application have been verified for that purpose.

Keyed 110T Sleeve and Tapered Replacement Installation

The included 110T sleeve is keyed to help prevent the curved tine from rotating under load. This is especially important because the working direction of the curve must remain correctly aligned. A qualified welder or fabricator should position the collar in a suitable frame, confirm clearances and orientation, and complete the weld according to the attachment design.

The 276CXJ is a tapered, single-nut model. During assembly, the tapered shank seats inside the matching sleeve, and tightening the retaining nut draws the tine firmly into position. The key maintains its orientation while the taper and nut secure the connection. This removable design also makes later service practical: if an installed 110T collar remains undamaged and within specification, the owner may be able to replace only the matching tine rather than cut out the sleeve.

Compatibility is based on the fabricated attachment—not simply on the tractor, skid steer, front-end loader, or other carrier. Confirm the frame strength, sleeve fit, weld quality, tine spacing, loader capacity, and intended material before operation. Inspect the tine, nut, key, collar, and welds regularly, and stop use if any component becomes loose, cracked, deformed, or excessively worn. PRO-Link covers the product with a one-year limited warranty against manufacturer’s defects, subject to the complete warranty terms.

Questions & Answers

Does the 276CXJ include a replacement sleeve?

Yes. The complete assembly includes the keyed 110T sleeve/collar for installations where both the curved tine and its mounting component need replacement.

Why does this curved replacement bucket tine use a keyed sleeve?

The key prevents rotation and keeps the curve facing its intended working direction while material is being engaged and carried.

Will the 276CXJ fit any rock or manure bucket?

No. It requires welding or fabrication into a properly designed frame. Compare the original dimensions and have the sleeve placement, capacity, clearances, and welds verified before use.
