32" x 2" Upgraded Elongated Auger Drill Bit- No Need to Squat Post Hole Digger,100% Solid Barrel Extended Length Intensive Blades Heavy Duty Green Auger Drill Bit for Planting for 3/8" Hex Drive Drill

Great for drilling a hole in the yard to put a pole in

Bought this auger to use to run a water pipe under a sidewalk where I did not want the mess of using a hose to blast out a channel under the concrete. The auger worked surprisingly well although I had to rig up an extension to make it all the way across. You just have to go slowly and frequently pull out the auger to allow debris ejection otherwise debris will accumulate in the hole and jam things up. After successfully completing the project I used the auger to help my wife plant bushes in the yard. Amazingly, the auger handled some pretty rocky and root filled soil. Yes, the hexagonal tip on the shaft sheared off but the shaft still chucked up in the drill. BTW I'm using a Milwaukee 18 v Fuel brush-less drill/driver for this with the T-handle attached. It is rugged enough to handle the punishment that would probably kill most 18v drills out there (I have no connection to Milwaukee just mentioning the brand of drill because it will take a lot of punishment). Be careful or you can strain your wrist if you hit a rock or snag. Just put the drill in reverse and then go at it again. So far I have dug 20 holes with it that are 2 feet deep and about 18 inches wide. After using the auger to loosen things up, I use a post hole digger to remove the dirt from the hole when it is 1 foot deep. Then I drill down the second foot and use the auger to loosen things up. Then add compost and fertilizer to the hole and use the auger to mix everything up. Then the plant goes in and the dirt removed in the first step is mixed with compost and fertilizer in a 5 gallon bucket with the auger and then used to fill in the gaps along the side of the plant. All the welds are solid and the shaft is still straight despite having taken a LOT of punishment. Pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of this product and how much labor it has saved (along with my back)!

Nice, strong, powder coated - helps with planting.

could use a better cutting tip, but works well!

Item was delivered on schedule and undamaged. The item is perfect for drilling diagonal holes around foundation of home for termite treating. I sharpened the leading edges of auger to cut through small roots. Works great with battery drill!!

The shaft was bent slightly causing a lot of wobble. If you are careful you can straighten the shaft to reduce the wobble but you should not have to do that. Also the hex flats that go into a drill motor are too short. They should be ground another 0.125 to 0.250 inch longer so that the shaft can be 'bottomed out' inside the drill chuck. A good idea that can be manufactured better.

Bought this for speedy beach set up. When setting up the Shabumi Wind Canopy this makes it a BREEZE. And of course the folks around love how we help them set up in just minutes

Good auger for my project. Used to set a metal fence post in the ground to use as a patio umbrella holder.

Awesome tool

Very good product for rejuvenating the lawn and creating drainage in parts that hold the water. Used it on about 100 x 8 inch holes through rocky patches and it's in perfect shape.

Me ayudó mucho un buen mensaje en inglés sobre una persona que lo usó para hacer un agujero horizontal bajo una banqueta, él da tips importantes que ayudan mucho a usar esta herramienta. Mi objetivo era realizar un minitunel de 180 cm bajo losa, el trabajo me fue complicado y requirió bastantes herramientas y cosas. Haré un resumen enfocándome en el producto y dejaré para un video de youtube el detalle. Ocupé primero una broca similar pero de 18" para hacer los agujeros guía de ambos lados y luego esta broca de 32". Lo hice con un taladro maki ta, importantísimo que tenga control de velocidad y dirección. A veces por una piedra en el camino que actua como rosca la broca se atora y solo sale empleando el cambio de dirección del taladro. En mi caso encontré un obstáculo muy adentro, casi en medio de mi hueco por lo que tuve que comprar una barreta de 1m para librarlo. Otro problema fue que por las características del trabajo,la situación-entorno y cero experiencia, pero con conocimientos de ingeniería, no logré conectar los huecos fácil, tuve que usar la barreta y esta broca de 32" para socabar un extremo que permitia juego angular, haciendo un poco cono con base adentro y poder lograr encontrar el otro hueco. Luego de 3 sesiones de trabajo y unas 15 hrs en total logré conectar ambos lados para pasar un alambre guía (mi objetivo es pasar una tuberia de agua de extensión). Esta broca hizo el trabajo esperado bien, si bien no basta para librar piedras importantes (más grandes que el diámetro) que puedan encontrarse, para eso la barreta fue igual fundamental.

Practico y de buen material, excelente para el uso, supero su calidad x precio. Gracias.

At first, the connection between the auger and the drill was skipping, but once the paint on the butt end of the auger ground off, it held in place much better. I got this to help dig a post hole in fairly hard clay. It wasn't super aggressive, but it did succeed in loosening and breaking up the clay to dig out with a post digger. Before using the auger, the post digger was unable to progress past 20 inches deep. With the auger, I got down to the full ~30 inch depth within a few minutes. There were some rocks, about half the size of my fist, embedded in various parts in the clay. The auger was unaffected by them.
