Equipment Rental Brothers offers 6-inch auger rental for the London, ON area for fence posts, smaller deck support posts, dock piling pilot holes, tree planting, and other applications that require a narrow, precise hole. This hydraulic auger attachment mounts to the auxiliary hydraulic circuit of compatible Kubota excavators in our fleet and is available for half-day, full-day, multi-day, and weekly rentals from our Otterville, ON yard.
- Fence Post Installation: The 6-inch auger is a practical choice for standard residential and agricultural fence lines where a smaller, cleaner hole is preferred. It produces a consistent hole diameter and can reduce the amount of excess concrete backfill compared with rough hand-dug holes.
- Deck Footing Posts: The 6-inch auger can also be used for smaller deck support post applications where tighter layouts or smaller footing profiles are specified. For many standard residential deck footings, the 8-inch auger is the more common choice, but the 6-inch profile can be useful when the design calls for a narrower hole.
- Tree and Shrub Planting: Landscape contractors and property owners use the 6-inch auger for tree and shrub planting where repeatable hole placement matters. It is useful for rows of shrubs, orchard-style planting, and other defined landscape layouts.
- Dock Pilings on Soft Shoreline Soil: In softer shoreline conditions, a 6-inch auger can be used to drill a pilot hole before driving or installing a piling. It is also a useful preparatory boring tool when paired with a structural pile installation setup.
- Hole Diameter: 6 inches (152 mm)
- Available Depths: Confirm maximum depth at booking; extension flights may be available
- Drive Type: Hydraulic, via excavator auxiliary circuit
- Compatible Machines: Kubota KX-018, KX-033, U27, U35, KX-040
