Why you may need a replacement Spiral Auger

Spiral snapped/broken:
Causes include: Spiral has become deformed from the conveyor jamming up, a foreign object has entered the conveyor causing internal damage, if an unsuitable material is handled, or general wear and tear.

Generally, this is the main reason you would need a replacement auger.

Trantec’s Spiral Augers

Trantec spiral augers are manufactured from carbon steel or 316 stainless steel in a variety of wire profiles and sizes.

Heavy-duty options are provided for aggressive materials with high bulk densities upon request.

Our spirals are heat-treated, providing greater strength and higher durability, giving you a spiral with exceptional quality and longevity.

Whilst most powders will convey using a simple round-section spiral, certain poor-flowing materials may be better suited to a flat or square section:

Round

Performs best with granular materials such as sugar, salt, rice, and oats, although suitable for almost any application. The most versatile of our spiral auger range.

Flat

For use with very fine, light, and aerated powders. A slight increase in capacity is achieved with subsequently increased volume. Examples of suited materials include powdered sugar, talcum powder, and pharmaceutical powders.

Square

For use with heavy and/or abrasive materials. Materials suited to a square section include pigments, calcium oxide, and silicon carbide.
