  • the cutting teeth are arranged radially from the hub and along the leading edge of the flight member in a configuration which causes the innermost of the digging teeth to cut a first step outwardly from the pilot hole while the remaining of the cutting teeth trail behind and cut subsequent steps into a formation.
  • the pilot bit is in the form of a rotary rock bit having radially spaced apart pockets formed within a novel cylindrical member and a novel body portion so that the shank of a removable cutting tooth is received within the pocket with a portion of the shank extending outwardly of the pocket where the shank can be removably fastened to a shoulder formed between the body portion and the cylindrical portion.
  • the pockets on both the flights and the rock bit are arranged into a configuration whereby any one of the cutting teeth can be substituted for any other one cutting tooth, thereby enabling a single type or designed cutting tooth to be utilized by both the auger and the bit.
  • an auger of the above described type is to realize maximum rate of penetration for the power provided by the prime mover. It is further desirable that the walls of the bore hole be maintained in a smooth condition soas to prevent irregularities and caving of material.
  • the auger should have digging teeth of durable material with the teeth each being of a design and being disposed in a pattern that causes the power expended thereinto to cut away the maximum amount of formation for a minimum cost.
