This 450mm auger provides a powerful, dual-purpose solution for operators who encounter shale, soft rocks, patchy ground, and permafrost. By combining the aggressive penetration of a rock bit with the efficient spoil removal of an earth auger, the RC6 ensures you don't have to swap attachments when the terrain gets tough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eBuilt to withstand the high-torque environments of the Australian construction industry, the RC6 series features a heavy-duty 75mm square drive hub and a reinforced centre tube. The 450mm diameter is a key size for larger foundation piers, house stumps, and commercial construction footings in difficult strata. With its robust construction and specialised taper-locked rock teeth, the RC6 delivers maximum performance and durability in ground that would stall a standard earth auger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCompatible with Auger Torque S5 75mm Square Drive Hubs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKey Product Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAustralian Made:\u003c\/b\u003e Designed and manufactured locally to survive the harshest drilling environments on the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eRock Combo Cutting Head:\u003c\/b\u003e Features a combination of tapered rock teeth and a heavy-duty pilot bit to shatter fracturable rock while maintaining high drilling speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e75mm Square Drive:\u003c\/b\u003e Equipped with a heavy-duty hub designed to withstand the high torque output of 5000 to 8000Nm (PD5 to PD8HF).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTapered Tooth Design:\u003c\/b\u003e The teeth are held securely in place by a taper-lock system, ensuring they remain seated even under extreme lateral pressure and vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTrue Cut Technology:\u003c\/b\u003e Digga’s signature engineering ensures a precise 450mm hole diameter is maintained through the toughest layers of shale and rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOptimised Flighting:\u003c\/b\u003e Heavy-duty steel flights are pitched to clear large fragments and heavy spoil rapidly, reducing drag on the drive motor and increasing fuel efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecifications \u0026amp; Sizes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e RC6 (Rock Combo)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSuits:\u003c\/b\u003e Auger Torque S5 Earth Drills\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/b\u003e 450mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOverall Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDrive Hub:\u003c\/b\u003e 75mm Square\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFlighting Thickness:\u003c\/b\u003e Heavy-Duty Steel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTeeth:\u003c\/b\u003e Tapered Rock Teeth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat ground conditions is the RC6 best suited for?\u003c\/b\u003e The RC6 is designed for \"combo\" ground. It is most effective in heavy earth, shale, soft fracturable rock, and ground containing \"floaters\" or large stones. It bridges the gap between the A6 MFT (Multi-Faceted Tungsten) and the DR6 (Dedicated Rock) series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCan I use the RC6 for solid, non-fracturable rock like Blue Metal?\u003c\/b\u003e While the RC6 is significantly tougher than an earth auger, it is not intended for solid, non-fracturable rock like blue metal, granite, or reinforced concrete. For those specific applications, we recommend moving to the Digga DR6 Dedicated Rock series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHow do I maintain the teeth on an RC6?\u003c\/b\u003e Tapered rock teeth should be checked regularly for rounding or chips. Because they are taper-locked, they can be easily replaced using a punch and hammer. Keeping sharp teeth on your auger is essential to prevent excess heat and stress on your drive unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAre the teeth and pilots replaceable?\u003c\/b\u003e Yes. Both the tapered rock teeth and the heavy-duty rock pilot are fully replaceable. We recommend keeping spares on hand, especially when working in abrasive or rocky terrain, to minimise downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhy Choose the RC6 Series?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003eThe RC6 series is the professional's choice for unpredictable ground. Instead of struggling with an earth auger or risking damage to a dedicated rock tool in soft soil, the RC6 gives you the best of both worlds. This versatility minimises downtime and maximises your productivity on-site, providing a professional finish in the most challenging environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePROUDLY PRODUCED AND MANUFACTURED IN AUSTRALIA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digga","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34890299048086,"sku":"Digga-RC6-18-5-MFT","price":1655.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0296\/9658\/9957\/products\/Digga-450mm-Auger-RC6-MFT-auger-75mm-square-drive.png?v=1609298203","url":"https:\/\/www.earthmovingwarehouse.com.au\/products\/450mm-rc6-rock-combo-auger-digga","provider":"Earthmoving Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
