For Delivery Digging Bars

When you're landscaping, working in a garden or even on a construction site, you may find it necessary to dig deep holes to accommodate fence posts, deck supports, pipes, prying stones and other objects. That's where digging bars step in. Made of durable, high-quality materials like heat-treated carbon steel, digging bars help cut through dirt that may include rocks, tree roots and other obstacles.

Dig Holes Through Tough Dirt

Unlike shovels, which can often get stuck in thick, tough dirt that's full of rocks, roots and other debris, digging bars feature an elongated, thin, pointed shape that cuts cleanly through tough ground. Some digging bars are made for specific applications and for use at a certain range of ground depths, from laying pipe in relatively shallow, dry ground to inserting fence posts in deep, damp, tough ground.

Material and Design

Typically made of steel, digger bars often undergo special processes, including drop-forging and heat treatment, to create an extra-durable design that won't snap or break, even under extreme pressure. Before deciding on a post hole digger, consider the size of the hole you want to make; the diameter of the pole will roughly correspond with the diameter of the hole.

Chisel Type

One important component of a digger bar's design is the chisel, since this part of the digger bar helps determine the direction of the hole. Some digger bars feature a straight chisel, while others feature a diamond chisel with an offset point.
