The right dock pipe sand auger can help you secure the posts and poles of your dock firmly into the ground. This can help your dock feel sturdier and last longer. Ve-Ve Inc. carries several models of dock pipe sand augers for you to choose from.
The D-504 features a heavy cast-iron sand auger that drills neatly into the soil. A curved flange cups the soil and holds your dock steady and secure. The D-506 fits 2” inside dimension dock pipe (with a 2-3/8” outside dimension), and the D-507 fits 1-1/2” inside dimension dock pipe (with a 1-7/8” outside dimension). All are crafted of cast iron, made in the U.S.A., and built to last a long time.
Most of the augers you can find on the market today are made from flimsy aluminum, but these cast iron beauties are made to be like mini anchors for your dock. The D-504 cast iron sand auger fits 1-1/4” inside dimension dock pipe with a 1-5/8” outside dimension and mounts on the inside of the pipe.
Although there are pipe augers on the market that mount to the outside of the pipe and may be quicker to attach, we believe the extra time spent on mounting the inside mount style is time well spent. You won’t have to worry about pulling out your dock pipe and not having an auger attached to it, which is a big possibility with a loosened or thread stripped out bolt that the outside mounting models have the possibility of doing.
Another dock tool that helps when using the pipe augers is our D-595; “Pipe auger wrench”. This tool slides over the pipe and with its unique design mounts firmly to the dock pipe allowing you to screw the pipe into the ground with a lot more ease.
