Replaceable blades and points from Little Beaver mount on the company’s regular and heavy-duty snap-on augers with ease. They protect the augers from wear while drilling in soils that range from loamy soil to compacted rock. They fasten to the auger with two steel bolts, and operators can remove the bolts with a common adjustable wrench. They are made with cold-rolled steel and hard surfacing to their edges. With these blades and points, the augers can drill more than 100 holes in prime soil conditions before servicing is needed. Smaller-diameter augers – 1 1/2-, 2- and 3-inch – use standard points that screw or pin on. For dense soils, carbide blades fasten to the bottom of the snap-on augers, similar to the standard auger points, and cut hard clay and frozen ground into smaller pieces. 800/227-7515; www.littlebeaver.com
