Overview
Quick answerHydraulic earth auger drive with planetary gearbox for 1.5–50 t excavators. Up to 6,931 N·m, 100–1,200 mm bits, CE certified.
The excavator earth auger drills clean, vertical holes for posts, piles and foundations. A hydraulic motor drives a planetary gearbox with high torque at low speed; the self-levelling cradle hitch keeps the auger hanging true. Bits from 100 to 1,200 mm diameter with earth or rock teeth.

Frequently asked questions
Which bit for clay?
Earth teeth with a fishtail pilot; for rocky clay choose rock teeth.
Can I use extensions?
Yes, 0.5–1.5 m extensions are available.
How do I match an auger drive to my machine?
Compare the drive’s flow and pressure window with your auxiliary circuit. Torque determines the maximum hole diameter and soil type you can drill.
Which teeth should I choose?
Earth teeth for soil and clay; rock (tungsten carbide) teeth and pilot for hard ground, frozen soil and soft rock.
