Whether you’re putting up fence for pasture rotation or installing posts for that new barn, having the right auger size makes all the difference between a smooth job and a frustrating day. This 6″ compact auger is perfect for fence posts, gate hardware, and lighter duty applications where you need clean, precise holes without overdoing it.
What You’re Getting
- 6″ diameter cuts the perfect size hole for most fence posts and gate hardware
- 36″ length gives you plenty of reach for standard post depths
- Standard 2″ round drive with dual 1/2″ drive holes fits most compact post hole diggers
- 1/8″ thick flighting moves soil efficiently without bogging down in clay or rocky ground
- Screw-on pilot point starts holes cleanly and keeps the auger tracking straight
Built for Real Farm Work
This auger is designed for compact and lighter-duty post hole diggers—the kind you’ll find on utility tractors, compact tractors, and smaller three-point units. It’s ideal for fence work, small building projects, and anywhere you need clean holes without the power requirements of heavy-duty equipment.
Made to Last
The steel construction handles the bumps and vibrations of digging through variable soil conditions. The reinforced hub with two 1/2″ drive holes spaced 2″ apart distributes stress evenly and keeps the connection solid even when you hit rocks or roots.
Installation Notes
This is a direct replacement that bolts right up to your digger’s drive output. The screw-on pilot point can be removed for sharpening or replacement when it gets worn. If you’re working in particularly rocky ground, consider keeping a spare pilot point handy.
