Looking for pellet auger approximately 4 1/2 ft long, 2" dia. 2" pitch.
Been searching for some time with no luck. Even attempted fabbing my own out of washers. Worked but I need better.
I have a pellet bin that holds 20 bags and want it to feed my corn/wood pellet furnace. Found some in europe but don't want to deal with the shipping.
Thank you for any help.
 
Have you looked into auger drill bits? I see ones that are like 2 and 3 inch, and quite long. Maybe weld 2 or 3 together? Haven’t researched it but just a thought. The auger part would at least be pre made that way.

Another option is


#32 looks like what you want. You could check and see if they can make it in the length you want.

Good idea on the " drill bit". But I assume way over engineered for the task.
Thanks for the link. Better than what I have found.

Look for a grain auger

There are farm equipment salvage yards and I wonder if you could get a used one for cheap. If they are expensive enough new that is.
