• Auger Boring Machines 

• Maxi-Rig & Mid-Size Directional Drills 

• Oil & Gas Drilling Rigs 

• Mud Pump & Cleaning Systems 

• Product Tooling & Accessories 

American Augers products are manufactured at the company’s 241,000 square-foot 

facility in West Salem, Ohio, in the heart of Amish country between Columbus and 

Cleveland. 

Since the founding of American Augers in 1970, there has never been a change in 

the company’s core value: having products developed by a can-do work force 

that focuses on mechanical, technological and customer-based design 

improvements. Our goal is to always exceed customer expectations by 

providing products that are not a cost of doing business, but an 

Investment in Success. 

Did You Know? American Augers was the first HDD manufacturer to eliminate chain 

and utilize a rack and pinion carriage design which is now the industry standard. Our 

rack and pinion drive provides smoother carriage movement, more precise operating 

control, long system life and no complicated parts. 

American Augers machines are supported through a dedicated parts and technical service 

department. We are here to help whenever you need us 24 hours a day, 

7 days a week, emergency or not.
