  • Fitted with Eaton/Digga geroler hydraulic motor
  • No case drain required
  • Extreme duty shaft locking system
  • Drive fits down the hole for greater digging depth
  • Low maintenance with 5yr gear box and 3yr motor warranty

Halo Alignment System

The new HALO alignment system option is being introduced, which uses simple 'green for go, red for no' LED light ring to ensure alignment. The indicator is in clear line of site for the operator and is easy to set up.

  • No need for a spotter and spirit level to guide the operator - HALO does not take holidays or sick leave
  • Never take your eyes off the job
  • Ensure holes are drilled plumb and reduce the number of in-hole angle adjustments;
  • Get back to drilling faster after returning the auger into the hole
  • HALO costs significantly less than traditional systems & eliminates the need for a costly in-cab display
  • Can be 'zeroed' at vertical or at a specific angle if required.

Auger Flights

Depending on your machine and the size of drive unit you select -
and our sales team will be happy to advise on this - you can have auger flights from 100 mm on smaller excavators and up to 1,500 mm diameter on excavator up to 10 tonnes. For machines up to 60 tonnes, diameters up to 1,800mm are available.

Two main types of auger build are available;

  1. standard 'earth' teeth & pilots
  2. harder-wearing "tungsten" teeth & pilots.

Most auger flights are manufacturer in the UK, but some are made in Australia with the drives.

  • Diameters: 100 to 1,500 mm
  • Depths: up to 10 metres
