When sourcing a 9W8209 replacement bucket tooth, buyers often encounter another part number: 1U3202TL.
Are 9W8209 and 1U3202TL the same bucket tooth? how can excavator parts distributors, dealers and equipment owners confirm the correct fitment before placing a bulk order?
The short answer is that 9W-8209 is commonly cross-referenced with 1U3202TL / 1U3202T in the aftermarket for a J200 single tiger bucket tooth. YASSIAN lists its product as a 9W-8209 J200 Single Tiger Bucket Tooth – 1U3202TL Style, with a J200 tooth system, side-pin retention and a center-spike profile.
However, a part-number cross-reference should not be treated as the only fitment check. Adapter dimensions, pin-hole position, bucket configuration, machine serial number and previous modifications can affect compatibility. For B2B buyers purchasing excavator bucket teeth in quantity, verifying the physical interface before production is an important step.
Yes, 1U3202TL / 1U3202T is commonly used as an aftermarket cross-reference for the 9W8209 J200 single tiger bucket tooth.

The 9W8209 single tiger bucket tooth is a replaceable Ground Engaging Tool (GET) component designed for a compatible J200 bucket adapter.
Unlike a conventional long bucket tooth, the Single Tiger profile uses a relatively narrow, pointed center section. This geometry concentrates digging force toward the leading edge, helping the bucket penetrate compacted soil, clay and other dense ground conditions. The design is particularly relevant when penetration is more important than simply maximizing tooth width.
Excavator bucket applications
Backhoe loader buckets
Trenching
Foundation excavation
Compacted soil excavation
Clay and dense ground
General digging requiring increased penetration
YASSIAN's single tiger bucket tooth compacted soil, clay, trenching, foundation work and selected excavator and backhoe loader applications.
When selecting GET parts, buyers should consider the actual working condition rather than choosing a tooth solely by machine model.
Tooth consideration | Typical priority |
Single Tiger / Center Spike | Penetration |
Standard long tooth | General excavation |
Penetration tooth | Hard-to-penetrate ground |
Abrasion tooth | Wear resistance |
Heavy-duty tooth | High-impact applications |
The right profile depends on the balance between penetration, abrasion resistance, impact resistance and expected service life.
A replacement bucket tooth is only useful if it correctly interfaces with the bucket adapter.
Before purchasing 9W8209 or 1U3202TL-style teeth, B2B buyers should verify several points.
The YASSIAN 9W-8209 product is identified as a J200 tip size within the J Series tooth system.
Do not assume that every tooth with a similar appearance will fit a J200 adapter.
The adapter is the connection point between the bucket and the replaceable tooth.
The tooth must properly seat on the adapter nose without excessive movement.
The YASSIAN 9W8209 uses a side-pin retention system. The listed matching hardware includes an 8E-6208 pin and 8E-6209 retainer. YASSIAN also notes that 9W7112 may appear as an aftermarket pin reference.
Pins and retainers should therefore be specified and verified separately when preparing a purchase order.
For YASSIAN's reference configuration, the product page gives approximately:
Overall length: 151–152 mm
Front width: 8.0 mm
Rear width: 57.0 mm
Height: 55.9 mm
Rear height: 64.0 mm
Weight: approximately 1.3 kg
These dimensions provide useful purchasing references, but they should not replace physical fitment verification.
Machine model alone may not always be sufficient.
YASSIAN's product information notes that fitment can vary according to serial number, bucket arrangement and previous modifications.
This is particularly important for distributors purchasing replacement GET parts for multiple machine configurations.
A major advantage of the Single Tiger design is its penetration-oriented profile.

Clay can create substantial resistance when the bucket enters the ground. A penetration-focused tooth profile can help initiate digging.
Trenching applications often benefit from a tooth that can penetrate the ground efficiently while maintaining a relatively narrow digging profile.
For foundation and general construction excavation, tooth selection can influence penetration, bucket productivity and wear.
The official Cat parts listing identifies 9W-8209 as a J200 Spike – Center Excavator Bucket Tip, while YASSIAN's product information identifies selected backhoe loader and excavator bucket applications.
YASSIAN specifically notes selected configurations associated with models including 416, 416B, 416C, 426, 426C, 428, 428B, 428C, 436C and 438C, while emphasizing that actual fitment should be confirmed because configuration and serial number can affect compatibility.
For distributors, equipment dealers and contractors, ordering by part number alone can create unnecessary risk.
A better purchasing process is to provide the manufacturer with several pieces of information.
Part number | 9W8209 / 1U3202TL / 1U3202T |
Tooth system | J200 |
Tooth style | Single Tiger / Center Spike |
Quantity | Required pieces per shipment |
Machine information | Machine model and serial number where available |
Adapter information | Adapter part number, dimensions or photographs |
Hardware requirement | Tooth only, or tooth + pin + retainer |
Branding | YASSIAN, neutral packaging or customized OEM logo |
YASSIAN states that buyers can provide the reference part number, product photographs, adapter dimensions, machine information and required quantity to support accurate product selection. Custom marking, color and packaging can also be discussed for confirmed orders.
Cross-reference numbers are extremely useful for finding replacement GET parts, but they are not a substitute for engineering verification.
Consider two products that are both advertised as "1U3202TL."
If one supplier has a slightly different casting profile, rear geometry or pin-hole position, the part may not provide the same fitment even though the catalog description appears identical.
For this reason, professional GET procurement should evaluate:
Part-number cross-reference
Tooth system
Adapter compatibility
Critical dimensions
Retention hardware
Material and casting quality
Hardness and mechanical properties
Production consistency
Inspection procedures
Supplier's ability to support repeat orders
This is particularly important for wholesalers and distributors who need consistent replacement parts across multiple shipments.
For buyers searching for a 9W8209 replacement bucket tooth, 1U3202TL / 1U3202T is a key aftermarket cross-reference to know.
The important point, however, is not simply matching two numbers.
The correct replacement should combine:
9W8209 / 1U3202TL cross-reference + J200 system + Single Tiger profile + compatible adapter + correct retention hardware + verified dimensions.
For excavator parts distributors, GET dealers, equipment maintenance companies and contractors, this approach reduces fitment risk and makes bulk procurement more predictable.
