A grain auger is a powered conveying machine used to move grain and other dry bulk materials vertically or at an angle, commonly employed during harvest operations to transfer crop from combine hoppers, grain carts, or temporary storage into bins, trailers, or permanent storage facilities. The Harvest International H1372 is a 13-inch by 72-foot auger designed for this essential agricultural task.
This used 2012 model features a 13-inch diameter auger tube measuring 72 feet in length, providing substantial reach and capacity for mid-to-large-scale grain handling operations. The unit is equipped with an electric auger jogger and remote controls, allowing the operator to adjust auger position and manage material flow from a distance. An unload light is included for safe nighttime or low-visibility operation.
The auger is powered by a 540 PTO (Power Take-Off) shaft, which connects to a tractor's transmission to drive the auger mechanism. The main bearings were replaced within the last year, and the hopper augers and their associated bearings were renewed approximately two years ago. These recent component replacements indicate proactive maintenance and suggest the machine's internal drivetrain is in sound condition.
The machine has been used seasonally during fall harvest periods only, which typically results in lower annual wear compared to year-round operation. The unit is located in Minnesota, USA, and is offered at $10,301.
