For added convenience the standard soil probe has a removable 10” cross-handle. The handle is corrosion-resistant and has comfortable grips so you can extract soil samples with ease and precision.
When it comes to soil analysis accuracy and efficiency is key. With the AMS 401.18, 1 1/8in X 24in SST Soil Probe with Slide Hammer you can trust you have a high quality tool that delivers results sample after sample.
Whether you’re a professional or a soil enthusiast the AMS 401.18 is a must have that will simplify your soil sampling and give you the insights you need to make informed decisions. Get yours today and see the difference in soil sampling.
Soil Sampling
Soil sampling is a critical process in construction, environmental monitoring and agricultural research. It involves collecting soil samples to analyze their composition, structure and properties. One of the essential tools used in soil sampling is the slide hammer probe. This tool is designed to collect undisturbed soil samples from the ground so accuracy and reliability.
The slide hammer probe has an integrated slide hammer so you can drive the probe into the hardest ground. This ensures a secure connection and minimal sample distortion. Made from high strength impact resistant tool steel such as heat treated alloy steel the probe is built to last and minimize the risk of injury and long life. Whether you’re working in dense clay or rocky soil, the slide hammer probe is designed to handle the toughest conditions with ease.
Features and Benefits
The slide hammer probe has several features and benefits that make it a great tool for soil sampling. The sliding head is designed to minimize pinch points so you can operate the tool safely and efficiently.
The handles 7 1/2” apart give you more control and improved ergonomics so you can maneuver the probe during sampling. The internal pieces of the head assembly are made from high strength impact resistant tool steel so it’s durable and reliable.
The probe is powder coated with a bright blue finish for high visibility and long lasting finish. The steel shaft is threaded for easy lifting and secure connection. The replacement tip is made from special alloy steel heat treated for distortion so the probe will still be effective even after extended use.
The slide hammer probe is also designed to protect against shock and has capabilities so it’s a safe and reliable tool for soil sampling in any environment.
Applications and Uses of the Soil Probe
The soil probe is a versatile tool with many applications across different industries. In construction it’s used to collect soil samples for foundation design and soil stability analysis. This helps engineers determine the suitability of the soil for building structures and ensure the safety and stability of the construction project.
In environmental monitoring the soil probe is used to collect samples to analyze soil contamination and pollution levels. This is critical to assess the impact of industrial activities and implement measures to protect the environment. In agricultural research the soil probe is used to collect samples to analyze soil composition and structure. This gives valuable insights into soil fertility and crop yields so farmers can make informed decisions on soil management and crop production.
The soil probe is also used in geotechnical engineering to collect samples for slope stability analysis and landslide risk assessment. This helps engineers design measures to prevent landslides and ensure infrastructure safety in hilly or mountainous areas.
