Efficient Hole Drilling

The 8-inch auger diameter provides a practical hole size for a wide range of fencing, landscaping, agricultural, and construction applications.

The hydraulic drive provides controlled rotational power for drilling through suitable soil and clay conditions. Actual drilling performance will vary based on ground conditions, hydraulic output, excavator capability, and attachment configuration.

Durable Construction

The auger features abrasion-resistant hardened steel flighting and a reinforced drive housing designed for repeated drilling applications.

A sealed hydraulic motor and greasable components help support routine maintenance and reliable operation in demanding work environments. Regular inspection and lubrication should be performed according to the applicable maintenance requirements.

Compatibility

The CAEL 8" Ground Drilling Auger is intended for compatible 2–2.5 ton mini excavators with:

• 30 mm mounting pins
• 100 mm pin center-to-center spacing
• 96 mm dipper gap
• Hydraulic flow up to the specified operating requirement
• Compatible hydraulic pressure and connections
• Compatible mounting geometry

Important: Excavator weight class and pin diameter alone do not guarantee compatibility. Confirm the complete mounting dimensions, hydraulic flow, hydraulic pressure, hose connections, and machine specifications before ordering.

Actual drilling performance depends on ground conditions and the excavator's hydraulic system.

Professional installation and operation according to the excavator manufacturer's guidelines are recommended.
