Soil Augers
• The lightweight but sturdy Soil Augers, T-handle, and Extensions are easy to transport and use.
• tensions to Augers will increase depth penetration capacity by several feet for more extensive exploration.
• Augers and Extensions use precision quick-connect fittings of high-strength steel.
• This system is faster, more robust, and easier to use than conventional threaded systems.
• Heat-treated super alloy bits can be rebuilt when worn.
Systems using threaded connectors and stainless steel systems for environmental sampling applications are available.
• Clay Augers have an open bit design and work well for sampling cohesive soils. Available in 3in (76mm) and 4in (102mm) diameters.
• Standard Soil Augers are used for sampling most soil types, have an open bit design, and are available in 3in (76mm) and 4in (102mm) diameters.
• Mud (Dutch) Augers are best-suited for sampling muck-like, boggy, and root-bound soils. This auger offers an open design and is available only in 3in (76mm) diameter.
• Sand Augers are designed for sampling looser, granular soils and have closed bits to retain cuttings. They are available in 3in (76mm) and 4in (102mm) diameters.
• One-Piece Soil Samplers are available with 11in (279mm) or 14in (360mm) lengths. They have a T-handle and steel construction that allows penetration into sampling tougher soils.
• Handles & Extensions connect to augers and help achieve greater depth penetration into the soil.
• They range in length from 2 to 5ft (610 to 1,524mm).
• Handles have a T-design to help easily guide the extensions deeper.
