Upgrading your tractor-mounted or hand-held post hole auger with a conversion kit from Pengo will give it "faster and more efficient penetration, even in the most stubborn ground conditions."
Developed originally for industrial-type augers used for drilling holes under extremely difficult and abrasive ground conditions, the add-on kit is now available for farm-type single or twin helix post hole augers.
"We've tested the conversion kit on dozens of farms here in Australia under a wide variety of ground conditions. We know it works," says Greg Dunn, Pengo's sales representative in Australia who helped develop and perfect the kit. "Many farmers who've used it on older augers now equip brand new augers with the kit because of the faster, more efficient penetration it provides."
Standard kits for 6 to 12 in. dia. augers include 2 tooth-holding plates which you permanently weld to the "business end" of the auger, a pilot bit which welds to the tip of the auger, a spiral-shaped drive bit which bolts onto the end of the bit, and a set of 4 interchangeable nickel alloy teeth and a Rub'r-Lok to hold them securely in place. The nickel alloy teeth can be interchanged with optional teeth of other configurations and degrees of hardness, depending on severity of the digging conditions being encountered. For extremely abrasive soil, or frozen ground, tungsten carbide teeth can be placed into the tooth-holding devices, using the "easy in - easy out" Rub'r-Lok system. Extra tooth-holding plates and teeth are available for augers larger than 12 in. in dia.
Kits are available for 6, 8, 9, 10 or 12 in. augers.
Prices range from $63.85 for 6-in. augers to $90.35 for 12-in. augers. Each standard kit includes two teeth-holder plates, a pilot screw bit and the drive lug it mounts on, four nickel alloy teeth, and Rub'R-Loks for holding the teeth in place.
