AugersDefinition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auger) An auger is a drilling device, or drill bit, that usually includes a rotating helical screw blade called a 'flighting' to act as a screw conveyor to remove the drilled out material. The rotation of the blade causes the material to move out of the hole being drilled.
