What kind of “tip” is on the Soil Sampler?
The “tip”, like the rest of the Sampler, is made from an excellent quality of steel tubing, which is then electroplated with copper, and finished with chrome plating. The tip is drawn by a special process which allows smooth entry of the soil core into the tube, as well as prevention of unnecessary deformation of the soil. The tip is not replaceable. However, heat hardening of the Soil Sampler’s sharpened “tip” can assure extensive use of the Sampler for a number of years, depending upon the extent of its use and the conditions under which it is used.
