Tech Info - Document #1175, Bailer/Boring System

Bailer Boring System for Heterogeneous Soils


Document Number: 1175

This hand operated set is designed to sample both soil and groundwater with one complete kit. A variety of augers in 7cm and 10cm diameters are included for sampling in all types of soil to a depth of 7 meters (about 23 feet). Auger heads can be changed as different soil types are encountered.

Once water is reached and the soil is too soggy to maintain a borehole, the casing sections are used to support the sides until sampling is complete. Water, sludge, and undisturbed soil can all be removed with the various components of the kit.

Everything needed for this type of sampling in any soil type is included and will fit in the heavy duty aluminum equipment case included with the set. The components and quantities are in the following list:

Hand operated bailer boring set for heterogeneous soils, standard set for augering to a depth of 7 meters with unpainted augers for environmental research.
