Prices depend on your machine and the options you need, so every attachment is quoted individually.

A backhoe auger puts an Auger Torque earth drill on the dipper of your backhoe loader, so the machine that digs the trench, such as a JCB 3CX, can also drill post holes, pile holes and tree pits. The backhoe range drills holes from 150mm to 1.2m across.

There are three drives for backhoes. The 7000 MAX and 8000 MAX take S5 augers and the 10000 takes S6 augers, all on a 75mm square output shaft. Each mounts on a single pin, double pin or cradle hitch made to fit your dipper, and an optional 2 way valve lets the drive run from a single-acting hammer circuit.

Before You Order

The drive runs off your backhoe's auxiliary circuit. Check its oil flow and pressure against the table, and tell us whether it's a two-way circuit or a single-acting hammer circuit, so we can add the 2 way valve if you need it. Auger Torque also lists the bigger 12000 and 15000 drives for backhoes; see our excavator auger drives.

Send us your backhoe make and model, the dipper pin diameters, pin centres and dipper width, and the hole sizes you need, and we'll quote the drive, hitch and S5 or S6 auger together. Our guide on what size auger you need covers hole sizes and teeth. Then request a quote.
