By Eloise Hewitt


Snow blower grain augers are very important to the functioning of a snow blader. Augers are revolving spiral metal sharp edge which in a snow blower picks up ice and snow from surface. The engine of this machine powers the auger. Snow blower auger is similar to auger in a household drills but is much bigger.

In household drills the auger removes the shavings from holes being drilled whereas in snow blower the auger removes the snow underneath the machine.Snow blower auger differ in shape and size to fit the machine well. Augers established on small push snow blowers may just be twelve to twenty inches wide while those mounted on tractors and trucks may have augers being more than five feet in width.

An auger has different prices quoted on it depending on the features that it has. If it has advanced it will certainly cost you more money than just a simple one. A simple one like the one meant for domestic use is not very costly.

As part of the drilling bit it is mounted on boom or an arm that is then fixed with bolt onto a utility vehicle for ease traveling from one place to another. This utility motor vehicle is very helpful on construction sites since it makes the digging of a drainage system and excavating for caissons and piers more efficient. The technological improvement of manual drilling bit has led to introduction of more complicated and powerful machinery for excavation.

An auger is also seen in a farm on a combine harvester and is used for digging post holes. This type of auger can be powered by a hand a combustion engine or an electric motor. An auger has many industrial uses.

In additional to snow blowers drills and farming tools they are also used in trash compactors ice resurfaces plumbers snakes injections molding machines in making of pellets transporting of rock shaving in drilling of rigs and in food products production. Handheld auger can also be used for gardening activities and to drill a hole in ice for ice fishing. Digging on the soil is strenuous and time-consuming activity when you do it by hand.

Some of the dealers offer attractive terms when you are purchasing this tools than others. For example you can be given a warranty by one company and not the other. It is advisable to buy these tools from such companies.

Although this type of tool is made up of a number moving parts the part that do most of the drilling activities are power head and helical shaft. During operations the powered head generate the rotational motion. The tip loosens the soil particle and the spiraling screw like cylinders move the dirt out of the hole. As it rotates it makes a straight spherical path on the soil. The hole size is relative to its diameter.
