Applications

Bobcat auger attachments are designed for a wide variety of earth drilling tasks. They are ideal for installing fence posts, foundation piles, signposts and utility poles. Landscapers and arborists also use augers for tree planting while civil engineers use them for soil sample collection or ground investigation. Augers can handle a range of soil types from soft clay or loam to tougher rocky or frozen ground because of the wide choice of auger bits.

When you choose a Bobcat auger from Versatile Equipment you benefit from full service support. Our technical team is skilled in diagnosing and servicing auger attachments to ensure fast turnaround on maintenance. We also stock genuine replacement parts including auger bits, gearboxes and drives to minimise downtime. With expert advice on optimising your carrier machine hydraulics and torque settings we help you maintain top drilling performance and extend the life of your attachment.

Performance

Bobcat augers deliver strong drilling capability with excellent control and precision. Their powerful torque ensures fast penetration even in densely compacted soils or hard clay. Thanks to carefully designed gearboxes and matched auger bits you can achieve straight, clean holes every time. The augers also maintain stable drilling even in rocky or uneven ground helping to reduce over drilling or deviation from the vertical line.

Hydraulic Driven

These augers are powered by the hydraulic system of the carrier machine. The hydraulic motor provides high torque and smooth rotational power for the auger bit while hydraulic flow and pressure give precise control for accurate drilling. Operators can adjust flow rates and pressure to match the bit size and soil conditions to achieve optimal performance and efficiency. The hydraulic drive also allows soft starts and controlled reversal when withdrawing the bit which is particularly useful when extracting stuck or jammed material.

Drive System

Bobcat augers use a robust mechanical drive system powered by hydraulics. A high torque hydraulic motor feeds into a high efficiency gearbox transferring power to the auger bit. The gear reduction ensures maximum force is translated into drilling capacity even under heavy load. This drive system supports a variety of bit sizes and types, maximising flexibility. Some models allow the drive to reverse enabling operators to extract stuck bits more effectively.

Dimensions

Auger dimensions are determined by the bit size you choose. The overall height of the auger attachment is influenced by the length and diameter of the auger bit as well as the size of the drive unit. Standard drive units have a compact footprint for ease of manoeuvrability while higher capacity gearboxes result in a larger, more robust body. These dimensions are designed so operators can maintain full visibility during operation and place the bit precisely where required.

Weights

Bobcat auger attachments vary in weight depending on the model and bit configuration. Lighter augers for smaller machines or softer ground are easier to transport and mount. Heavier duty augers suitable for larger machines and more demanding tasks weigh more due to reinforced gearboxes and larger drive systems. Correct weight ensures compatibility with your carrier’s lift capacity and stabilises the attachment during deep or wide drilling.
