Add-On Plastic Flighting Fits Any Auger AUGERS Augers (29B) 25-2-11 Lundell Plastics is known for its augers with plastic flighting. The company's latest new product is add-on flighting - which it calls "wear shoes" - that can be added to existing augers.
The UHMW (ultra high molecular weight) plastic comes in sections that are pre-formed and pre-drilled to fit onto either new or worn steel auger flighting. Each wear shoe covers one pitch (revolution) of the auger. The sections join together using a patented bevel lap joint and are bolted to the auger with a special UHMW-capped bolt. The bolt is counter sunk to create a continuous smooth surface.
The company displayed the new product at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville and expects to have it on the market by May. Wear shoes will be available in different diameters, pitches and thickness to fit most common augers.
