Soil Sampling Augers

Designed for Efficient, Repeatable Soil & Sediment Sampling

Efficiently and safely extract soil samples for accurate sample analysis.

Accurate geological data starts on the surface. Field sampling augers are essential tools for collecting consistent,  ground samples. Especially without contamination during mineral exploration and site investigations. Allowing geologists to access subsurface materials quickly and efficiently, supporting reliable observations, preliminary analysis, and informed decision-making.

Soil samples are often among the earliest materials users collect.  Across a range of projects, including mineral exploration, geotechnical investigations, and ecological surveys. When investigators obtain them correctly, these pristine samples provide critical insight into underlying geology, soil composition, and ground conditions. This makes them essential for early-stage site assessments, risk evaluation, and informed project planning.

Reliable Soil Sampling in all Conditions

Augers and samplers deliver consistent, representative soil samples across a wide range of ground types. From fine, soft soils to more resistant, stony profiles — helping you trust the integrity of your data.

Choose the Right Head for Your Soil Type

With options like hand augers, gouge augers, and spatiality variants. Enabling use for soft or coarse soils, you can match your sampling tool to the terrain. Improving penetration, efficiency, and sample quality.

Minimise Sample Distortion

Profile and gouge augers are engineered to reduce sample disturbance, preserving soil layering and structure. Therefore resulting in accurate classification, horizon analysis, and geological interpretation.

Full Reach with Modular Systems

Our soil augers configuration includes: extension rods, interchangeable heads, and ergonomic handles. Allowing you to reach deeper profiles while remaining lightweight and portable. This modular approach allows you to adapt your setup to varying depths, soil conditions, and site constraints without the need for powered equipment.

Efficient Assembly in the Field

Our manual augers feature a bayonet-style connector system. In-turn, allowing rapid assembly and disassembly in the field. This means your team can switch auger heads or extend rods quickly, reducing downtime, simplifying transport, and making field sampling more efficient — even in remote or challenging locations.

Premium Quality Manufacturing

Royal Eijkelkamp augers are hand-forged and manufactured in Europe. Using high-grade, non-toxic steel, ensuring exceptional durability, precision, and longevity. Built for repeated field use in demanding environments, the design allows them to withstand heavy workloads while maintaining consistent performance over time.

Complete Sampling System for Efficient Fieldwork

Maximise efficiency and data accuracy on your project by using manual soil sampling augers alongside our geological sampling bags and ticket book systems. Together, they create a complete, streamlined sampling workflow — from extraction in the field to organised, labelled storage ready for lab analysis. Ensure samples remain uncontaminated, correctly logged, and easy to handle, saving time and reducing errors on every project.

Efficient Soil Sampling, For more Accurate Data

Manual augers are a critical tool for collecting high-quality soil samples efficiently and reliably. By using the right auger system, geologists and field teams can quickly access undisturbed subsurface material, reduce handling errors, and maintain the integrity of their samples. Our range of modular, hand-forged augers with quick bayonet connectors ensures that every sample is collected accurately, helping you make confident early-stage project decisions.
