Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Auger Drive – 13–17T Excavators
Extreme Torque Auger Drive | Excavator Applications
Industrial-Grade Auger Drive for Heavy Civil & Infrastructure Drilling
The HFP 15000 Series Hydraulic Auger Drive is engineered for 13–17 tonne excavators, delivering very high torque output and controlled low-speed rotation for demanding drilling applications in hard ground, rock-based soils, and large-diameter footing works.
Designed for civil construction, infrastructure, piling preparation, foundation drilling, bulk fencing, utilities, and government projects, the HFP15000 provides exceptional drilling force while maintaining stable hydraulic control and long service life.
Built for Australian conditions, this auger drive is ideally suited to contractors, hire fleets, councils, utilities, and OEM applications requiring a heavy-duty, serviceable auger solution for large excavator platforms.
Functional Overview
Auger drives in this torque class must deliver extreme rotational force while maintaining hydraulic stability and component protection under sustained load. The HFP15000 Series achieves this through a high-capacity hydraulic motor paired with a reinforced heavy-duty epicyclic gearbox, delivering reliable torque multiplication and controlled drilling speed across the most demanding ground conditions.
Its ability to drive large auger diameters makes it suitable for infrastructure-scale drilling without compromising reliability or control.
