Description
2 inch hex or 2-9/16 inch round hub
Eight sizes, 12 to 48 inch
Overview
The Digga tree planter is a tree planting auger built to drill a planting hole and a narrower centre hole for the tap root in one pass. Each size is listed by two diameters: the overall diameter of the outer flights, from 12 to 48 inches, and the tap root diameter at the centre, from 6 to 24 inches. It runs on Digga's 2 inch hex auger drives as standard, or on round-shaft drives with the optional 2-9/16 inch round hub, and mounts the same way as the A4 earth auger bits.
Key Features of the Digga Tree Planter Auger Bit
- Two-diameter design — outer flights cut the planting hole, a narrower centre section is sized for the tap root
- Eight sizes from 12 inch outer / 6 inch tap root up to 48 inch outer / 24 inch tap root
- Standard 2 inch hex hub, the same hub as the A4 and RC4 auger bits
- Optional 2-9/16 inch round hub for drives with a round output shaft
- 48 inch size fitted with multi-faced tungsten teeth; the 12 to 36 inch sizes carry earth teeth

Choosing the Shaft
| Shaft option | Fits |
|---|---|
| 2" Hex | Digga drives with the standard 2 inch hex output shaft |
| 2-9/16" Round | Drives with a 2-9/16 inch round output shaft |
If your drive and bit do not match, Digga auger adapters convert between 2 inch hex and 2-9/16 inch round.
Which Drives Does the Tree Planter Fit?
Fitment is set by the hub, not the machine. The 2 inch hex version fits any drive with a 2 inch hex output, the same drives that run A4 and RC4 bits; the round version fits a 2-9/16 inch round output. Larger sizes move more soil per turn, so pair the bigger planters with a drive that has the torque to turn them. Add the size you need to your cart to see delivered pricing; enter your drive model with the order and we confirm the hub before it ships.
On delivery: check the package before you sign for it. Note any damage on the delivery receipt or bill of lading at the time of delivery, photograph it, and email support@eskidsteer.com — a clean signature makes a carrier claim much harder to win.
Tree Planter Auger Bit Questions, Answered
What is the tap root diameter?
It is the narrower centre section of the auger. The outer flights cut the planting hole at the overall diameter, and the centre is sized for the tree's tap root. Both figures are listed for every size so you can match the auger to the root ball and tap root of what you are planting.
Hex or round shaft — which do I need?
Match the output shaft on your auger drive. Digga drives use a 2 inch hex shaft as standard, so the hex version is the usual choice. Choose the 2-9/16 inch round version only if your drive has a round output.
Can I use the tree planter on my existing auger drive?
Yes, if the hub matches the drive's output shaft. It fits the same drives as the A4 earth auger bits, and an adapter covers a hex-to-round mismatch.
Why does the 48 inch size have different teeth?
Digga builds the 48 inch planter with multi-faced tungsten teeth rather than earth teeth; the 12 to 36 inch sizes carry earth teeth. Multi-faced tungsten is braised onto the face of the tooth, which Digga states gives a longer wear life and greater cutting performance.
Can I extend the tree planter for deeper holes?
Digga sells auger extensions with a 2 inch hex connection for the A4 range. Check the hub on the extension matches your planter before ordering.
