The Gator Probe was designed with operator comfort and efficiency in mind. This one of a kind Soil Probe offers the benefits of a “closed end” Soil Probe, but the hinged jaw quickly transforms the unit into an “open ended” Soil Probe providing easy access to the entire soil core. Outfitted with a side foot peg allows the user to easily step the probe into the ground. The Gator Probe is ideal for composite sampling or field extraction of representative cores for subsequent analysis by a soil lab. The overall length of the Gator Probe is 42” with a sample recovery length of 12”. The inner diameter of the tip when closed is approximately 9/16”, while the outer diameter is 1”. The Gator Probe is constructed of a heavy .109w drawn over mandrel steel for extra strength. The entire unit has been finished with nickel plating for added rust resistance. The 10” Cross Handle is Rubber-Gripped for operator comfort.
