Digga PDT18 2-Speed Auger Drive: PD18 2-speed drive render

About the PDT18

The Digga PDT18 is a 2-speed hydraulic auger drive for 15 to 22 tonne excavators. It runs on 40 to 180 L/min and gives up to 18,516 Nm of torque @ 240 Bar, with augers up to 1,600 mm in earth and 1,200 mm in clay.

  • Two speeds: high speed for smaller holes, and a slower, higher-torque speed for bigger ones.
  • Choose a cradle or double pin hitch, or no frame. Packages come with hoses, couplers and linkage.
  • 75 mm square output shaft for Digga 8 Series augers. HALO alignment is available.
  • Your machine needs a case drain line. A 3 m power lead and 2-pin connector run the speed change, and the 2-speed controller is sold separately.

Warranty is 5 years on the gearbox and 3 years on the motor. Tell us your machine make and model when you order, and we'll check it fits before anything is ordered.
