Clay & Trench Diggers

Cut narrow, deep trenches through clay, compacted earth, and root-laden ground where ordinary equipment struggles. CP, APT, Toku, and Texas Pneumatic 30-lb-class diggers run a 1 x 4-1/4 hex shank and take spade and clay steels for fast soil removal on utility and underground work.

Dig and Trench in Hard Ground

Run a clay digger off an air compressor sized to its air demand, and swap spades and moil points for the soil. For compacting the backfill afterward, see backfill tampers; for heavier breaking, see paving breakers.
