8 series augers - 1ot-3ot
Our 8 Series augers are specially designed for Backhoes, Excavators, and machines up to 30t. For efficient drilling, the key is an effective auger cutting head. Depending on the ground condition, you can choose between a bladed cutting head, a tapered cutting head, or a rotating rock pick design. Need to drill deeper? Digga has a full range of auger extensions available to suit your specific requirements. Digga Augers come complete with Easy PADLOC knock in and out teeth which require no special tools.
A8 earth
Drill holes in light earth conditions and clay. Numerous teeth options are available for most ground conditions. Available in Earth, Tungsten, or MFT for general drilling.
RC8 earth/rock
Digga's RC8 Augers come with tapered tungsten TAPERLOC teeth, which are designed for drilling in earth, shale, asphalt, permafrost and fracturable rock.
