Yescom 8" Earth Auger Bit

This 8 inch auger bit attaches to hand-held post-hole diggers with a 3/4 inch shaft. The cast steel blade cuts holes up to 31.5 inches deep and 8 inches wide in silty, peaty, gravel, pebble and dry cracked soil. A subulate tip and spiral blade penetrate the ground quickly to speed up planting and installation work. The glossy black painted finish resists rust and corrosion for a long service life.

Suits gardeners and fence installers

This bit is made for users who need to drill individual holes for bulbs, potted plants, vegetables, flowers, shrubs or fence posts. It leaves soil around the hole edge for easy packing and cleaning. Buyers who need to bore holes wider than 8 inches or deeper than 31.5 inches should look at a larger diameter or longer auger. Anyone without a compatible 3/4 inch shaft powerhead cannot use this bit.

3/4 inch shaft compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the 3/4 inch shaft requirement on the powerhead. If your post-hole digger does not accept a 3/4 inch shaft, this auger bit will not attach. No adapter or alternative mounting hardware is included in the package.

Questions about this item

What shaft diameter does the 8-inch auger bit require on the powerhead?

The bit fits hand-held post-hole diggers with a 3/4-inch shaft such as the YES0617 model.

What are the overall length and diameter of the bit, and will it clear my gate?

Overall dimensions are 31 1/2 inches in height and 8 inches in diameter (800 x 200 mm).

How do I attach the bit to the digger, and what step is often missed?

Slide the bit onto the 3/4-inch shaft and secure the retaining bolt or pin; the step often missed is tightening that fastener fully before starting the engine.
