THE PROBE
One of the most effective ways to know what lies beneath the surface of the ground is with the use of a probe rod. Our rods are used to accurately locate burried objects in addition to sampling soil and checking consistency. With a little practice anyone can learn to use one in no time at all. We've refined the design & materials and believe them to be the best avaiable anywhere.
Our probes are professionally manufactured using only the highest quality new materials available. Their one continuous piece construction (not spliced) and available in lengths up to twenty feet. We use a technically advanced rod material that's superior in rigidity and retention than conventional spring steel. The memory is so good that you can bend a twenty foot section in a circle and it will bounce back straight as an arrow. Try that with any other spring rod.
Our material is more ridgid than conventional spring steel probes of the same diamiter allowing ours to be narrower. This makes a big difference that there's multipal advantages to besides making them much more effective and easier to use.
-
Penetrates easier leaving a smaller hole
-
-
More easily used to greater depths
-
Longer life
-
Greater sensitivity
-
Cover more area in less time
-
Lighter weight
The most popular size for general use that we recommend is four foot. All probes are one piece welded construction and come with a carbide ball tip. Our welded carbon tips are designed for extra long life and sampling dirt from as deep as the probe is pushed. We can also build a rod with the ball placed an inch or so up from the end. However we do not recommend these tips. Their just not as effective at soil sampling and a little more difficult to use.
 
Our probes will penetrate much easier and faster than the larger diamiter most probes are made of. All welded construction with a long lasting carbide tip for reduced wear.
