Company s Rebuilt Augers Work Better Than New AUGERS Minnesota farmer Dennis Skaro says “When metal augers have excessive wear they need to be repaired or replaced or they’ll damage grain and cost you a bunch of money ” That’s why Skaro likes Princeton Flighting an Illinois company that repairs augers with conventional helicoid flighting or its patented Super Edge™ flighting that’s up to 50 percent thicker at the exact location where the greatest wear occurs The added strength is achieved through a patented cold rolling process that doesn’t add extra weight Super Edge flighting is a major advance over standard helicoid flighting and can be incorporated without modifying existing auger specifications The raised edge formed by Super Edge flighting is formed integrally during the manufacturing operation and isn’t just a strip attached with a secondary weld This edge process improves auger performance because of greater wear resistance and gentler grain handling The process combines dimensional precision with a high quality surface finish rolled to CEMA standards and OEM specifications Flighting is 30 to 50 percent thicker at the main point of wear and the precise thickness gain depends on the flighting dimensions Super-Edge flighting can be applied on left or right hand standard pitch short pitch long pitch cupped or ribbon augers from 3 to 40 in in dia The maximum flight diameter for conventional helicoid flighting application is 42 in and the maximum strip thickness is 0 5 in in coil form and 0 75 in in bar form The maximum flight diameter for a stainless steel auger is 30 in and the maximum strip thickness is 0 25 in The cost for flighting repair depends on the length and diameter of the auger A price quote is provided by the company after specifications are given over the phone or on the company’s website Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Princeton Flighting Corp P O Box 599 Princeton Ill 61356 ph 815 872-1431; www princetonflighting com
