The Pürckhauer gouge auger is a one-piece gouge auger made of tough elastic steel for soil sampling and/or profiling in hard soils. This gouge (earth boring stock) is made out of solid steel, with 28 millimetres outer diameter and with a pressed steel impact head. The plug-in rotary handles are rubber-coated and also serve as groove cleaners.
This auger can be hammered, but only with the included simplex sledgehammers. The drilling depth is 1 metre and the groove width is 18 millimetres inner diameter. This product is suitable for medium and heavy soils.
