The Eijkelkamp Ergonomic Hand Auger Set (01.11.SE) is the clear “all rounder” of the Hand Auger market, with the added benefit of being ergonomically efficient & comfortable to use.   This Hand Auger set has been ergonomically designed with the intention of reducing back twisting & bending, thus significantly reducing operator injury in the field.

The Eijkelkamp Ergonomic Hand Auger Set (01.11.SE) is perfect for soil sampling in a range soil types, being particularly suitable for heterogeneous soil investigation (composition, geology, mineralogy) and environmental research.

Typical applications include:

• Contaminated sites assessment.
• Soil sampling above groundwater table.
• Soil sampling below groundwater table.
• Environmental soil research.
• Undisturbed sampling.
• Soil texture research.

Using a hand auger kit has never been easier.  Eijkelkamp have included their world famous “bayonet fitting” to ensure the interchange of extension rods & cutting heads can be undertaken with a minimum of effort.

Complete with multiple cutting heads, carry case, and extensions, the Eijkelkamp Ergonomic Hand Auger Set (01.11.SE) can be used to manually sample down to a depth of 5m.

The Eijkelkamp Ergonomic Hand Auger Set (01.11.SE) includes:

• 1 x Ergonomic T-Handle.
• 1 x Edelman Auger (sand).
• 1 x Edelman Auger (coarse sand).
• 1 x Edelman Auger (combination).
• 1 x Edelman Auger (clay).
• 1 x Riverside Auger.
• 1 x Stoney Soils Auger.
• 1 x Spiral Auger.
• 1 x Gouge Auger.
• 4 x Auger Extension Rods.

The Eijkelkamp Split Tube Sampler Set (#04.17) is designed for the rapid sampling of undisturbed surface soils.

The Eijkelkamp Split Tube Sampler Set (#04.17) consists of two stainless steel tube halves (40 cm length), held together with a small locking pin. Once deployed, the Split Tube Sampler is driven directly into the soil using the beating head T-Handle & hammer.  The Split Tube Sampler is then removed from the soil using the lifting jack, lever & chain.  Once on the surface, the locking pin is removed and the Split Tube Sampler separates into two halves.  The sample is then removed.

Typical applications include:

• Contaminated sites assessment.
• Soil sampling above groundwater table.
• Soil sampling below groundwater table.
• Environmental soil research.
• Undisturbed sampling.
• Soil texture research.
• Root zone sampling.

The Eijkelkamp Split Tube Sampler Set (#04.17) includes:

• 1 x Split Tube Sampler
• 1 x T-Handle (beating head)
• 1 x Impact Absorbing Hammer.
• 10 x Sample Liners (soft).
• 1 x Lifting Jack, with lever & chain.
• 1 x Impact Absorbing Hammer.
• 1 x Light Weight Carry Bag.

The Eijkelkamp Liner Sampler Set (#04.15.SB) is a world-class hand auger set, designed specifically for the sampling of undisturbed soils.

Standard hand auger cutting tips are used to dig to the desired sampling depth.  A Stainless Steel core sampler (with plastic liner) is then attached to auger set and driven into the ground using a “beating head” t-handle (included) and shock absorbing mallet (included).   Core samples can be removed, sealed and sent to a laboratory for analysis.

In softer soils, the Stainless Steel core sampler can be pushed into the ground using a push / pull handle (included).

Typical applications include:

• Contaminated sites assessment.
• Soil sampling above groundwater table.
• Soil sampling below groundwater table.
• Environmental soil research.
• Undisturbed sampling.
• Soil texture research.
• Root zone sampling.

The Eijkelkamp Liner Sampler Set (#04.15.SB) includes:

• 1 x Edelman Auger (sand).
• 1 x Riverside Auger.
• 1 x Stainless Steel Core Sampler.
• 5 x Sample Tubes.
• 1 x T-Handle (beating head).
• 1 x Impact Absorbing Hammer.
• 1 x  Down the Hole Hammer.
• various maintenance equipment.
• 1 x Heavy Duty Carry Case.

The Eijkelkamp Prospecting Kit (#01.16) has been specifically designed for use in heterogeneous soils, and is suitable for almost any soil type.

Designed for use by a single operator, the Eijkelkamp Prospecting Kit is highly portable.  Each kit includes a quiver style backpack that allows all augers, extensions & handles to be carried by one person, without undue physical effort. A standard kit weighs approximately 17kgs.

Typical applications include:

• Contaminated sites assessment.
• Soil sampling above groundwater table.
• Soil sampling below groundwater table.
• Environmental soil research.
• Undisturbed sampling.
• Soil texture research.

The Eijkelkamp Prospecting Kit (#01.16) includes:

• 1 x Ergonomic T-Handle.
• 1 x Edelman Auger (sand).
• 1 x Edelman Auger (coarse sand).
