Earth Auger for Hire, Drills 200mm to 750mm
Need to drill clean, accurate holes fast? The Allways Hire earth auger, driven by an Auger Torque drive unit, turns your digger into a precise hole-drilling tool for fencing, piling, planting and drainage work across Hawke’s Bay. With auger sizes from 275mm right up to 750m. It handles everything from fence posts and screw piles to tree pits and heat-pump holes, even in tough or uneven ground.
The auger drive connects to the hitch of your digger with a bracket, and the two hydraulic hoses use half-inch quick release couplings that join straight onto the couplings on your digger boom. It needs a hydraulic flow rate of 40 to 95 litres per minute. The 275mm to 600mm augers use a 50mm hex drive to suit diggers from 1.7T to 10T, while the 750mm auger uses a 75mm square drive for 10T machines. If you need extra depth, 1m and 2m drive extensions are available.
No special licence is required to operate the earth auger, though a basic knowledge of digger operation is recommended. It is hire ready from our Napier and Hastings branches, with delivery and pickup available across Hawke’s Bay. Enquire now and tell us your digger size and hole diameter, and we will match the right auger to your job.
