When your 12-inch compact auger starts taking longer to cut through dirt or the holes come out rough and ragged, those worn cutting edges are the likely culprit. Sharp edges cut clean while dull ones just pound and scrape, making every hole a fight. This replacement cutting edge set gets your auger back to slicing through soil like it should, saving you time and aggravation on fence jobs.
What You’re Getting
- Two replacement cutting edges designed specifically for your 12-inch compact auger
- Proper bolt hole spacing at 7/8 inch center-to-center for precise fitment
- 3/8 inch bolt holes that line up perfectly with your existing auger design
- 2-3/8 inch width provides optimal cutting surface without excess drag
- Clean, no-step design that cuts efficiently through different soil types
Built for Real Farm Work
These edges are made for the compact 12-inch post hole augers that handle most ranch and farm fencing projects. Whether you’re setting corner posts for a new pasture, replacing rotted fence posts, or installing gates, this size auger digs the right hole for 4×4 and 6×6 posts. Perfect for utility tractors and skid steers running compact post hole digger attachments.
Made to Last
Cutting edges take the brunt of the punishment when you’re digging through rocky soil, hitting roots, or dealing with hardpan clay. These replacements are built to handle the impact and abrasion that comes with real digging work. The steel holds its edge longer and resists chipping when you inevitably hit that buried rock.
Installation Notes
Swapping out worn edges is straightforward with basic tools. Remove the old edges, clean the bolt holes, and install the new ones with the cutting edge facing the rotation direction. Make sure both edges are tight before putting the auger back to work – loose cutting edges can damage your auger or create dangerous vibration.
