TMG-SAG24 24-Inch Skid Steer Post Hole Auger Bit
Overview
TMG Industrial's 24-inch skid steer auger bit is used for large-diameter post holes — round corral posts, sign bases, and small tree planting holes. Sold direct through tmgindustrial.ca with Canadian shipping. A 24-inch bit requires a high-torque drive unit; pair with TMG's auger drive unit or a compatible planetary drive.

Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You already have an auger drive unit and need the right bit for your soil type or hole diameter
- You drill specific hole sizes for fence posts, footings, or tree planting and need diameter variety
Skip if
- You don't have an auger drive unit — a bit alone does nothing without a compatible drive motor
- Your soil is solid rock or hardpan — standard earth bits fail fast, you need a dedicated frost/rock bit
Also consider
- Rock or frost auger bit if your ground is caliche, Shield rock, or frozen Prairie soil
- Auger drive unit if you don't yet have one compatible with your machine's hydraulic flow
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid-frame machines (S450–S650 class) are the most common fit.

Care & Maintenance
- Grease the drive unit gearbox per the manufacturer's schedule — typically every 8 hours of operation; a starved gearbox is the most common cause of drive unit failure
- Inspect bit carbide teeth after every use in rocky or abrasive soil — worn or chipped teeth increase drive unit load and reduce penetration
- Replace a worn pilot bit before the main teeth wear — the pilot centers the bit and prevents wobble that stresses the drive unit gearbox
- Check hydraulic hose connections at the drive unit before each use — hose chafing in tight soil is a common failure point
- Store bits vertically or with exposed carbide protected — storing lying flat with unprotected carbide causes chipping from incidental contact
How to Connect
- Attach auger drive head using Bob-Tach
- Connect high-flow hydraulic couplers (colour-coded on most brands)
- Verify rotation direction — auger should rotate clockwise when viewed from above
- Lower auger to ground and test rotation at idle before digging
