Here are some common augers:
冰钻
TheIce augerThe output contains only the result "主要用于钻孔和碎冰。这种设备中的刀片经过设计、磨削和成型,用于切割和碎碎冰。这些通常用于商业或工业食品设备中,用于碎碎冰以供食品和饮料使用。冰钻也用于冰钓,可以在需要钻穿厚冰时使用。冰钻比用于钻探土壤的普通钻头更锋利。更锋利的刀片使得冰钻可以轻松穿透冰层,而不会产生潜在的危险裂缝。"
Earth auger
Earth augers are used to make holes in the ground and are made of a rotating metal tube or rod with one or more blades attached to the lower end. As the name implies, earth augers are designed to cut or scrape the ground and soil. These augers are usually used by farmers and gardeners who grow crops.
Grain augers
The purpose of the grain auger is to transport large quantities of grain. Grain augers are constructed with a large tube containing a solid shaft around which the auger rotates counterclockwise. Grain is pulled up and pushed into the shaft and then ejected from the other end. Typically, the grain is stored in a box or silo or, in some cases, directly in a truck for transport.
Hand augers
Hand augers are generally used toDig shallow holesThey are typically used for the following tasks.
Collecting soil samples
Making post holes
Environmental construction
采矿
Unclogging sewers
Finding subsurface materials that may obstruct boreholes and damage power tools
Garden earth auger
Garden earth augers look very similar to industrial augers. However, they are usually hand-held, lightweight, and much less expensive. They are used for digging fence post holes, plant bulbs or grass plugs, and other horticultural, more amenity-oriented uses. Garden earth augers are less time-consuming than shovels and can also loosen the soil for plants.

What are the common earth auger sizes?

通常,地球钻孔器的尺寸有以下直径可供选择。
  • 4 inches
  • 6 inches
  • 8 inches
  • 12 inches
  • 18 inches
The available depths for earth augers are typically 3 feet and 4 feet, but there are earth augers that allow you to drill at greater widths and depths. Those who use aOne-man earth augerDo not use it for any hole over 8 inches in diameter. Instead, a two-person earth auger can do jobs up to 18 inches in diameter. Any project involving wider and deeper holes than those listed above will require crane attachment or towing of the model.
