Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Auger Drive – 4.5–7T Excavators
High-Torque Auger Drive | Excavator Applications
Industrial-Grade Auger Drive for Medium Excavator Drilling Applications
The HFP 5000 Series Hydraulic Auger Drive is engineered for 4.5–7 tonne excavators, delivering increased torque capacity and controlled rotational performance for demanding drilling applications across civil, agricultural, and infrastructure projects.
Designed for fencing, foundation drilling, piling preparation, tree planting, landscaping, and utility installations, the HFP5000 provides a strong balance of torque, hydraulic efficiency, and durability for operators stepping into heavier auger work.
Built for Australian conditions, this auger drive is ideally suited to contractors, hire fleets, councils, utilities, and OEM applications requiring a reliable, serviceable auger solution for mid-size excavator platforms.
Functional Overview
Auger drives in this class must provide high torque while maintaining smooth rotation and hydraulic stability to prevent stalling or excessive wear. The HFP5000 Series achieves this through a high-capacity hydraulic motor paired with a heavy-duty epicyclic gearbox, delivering consistent torque output and controlled drilling speed across varied ground conditions.
Its supported auger diameter range allows a single drive unit to cover multiple applications without the need to change equipment.
