are direct push drill units mounted on tracks, pick-up trucks, or trailers. They are used for: soil, soil gas, and groundwater sampling; remedial investigations; groundwater monitoring well installation; piezometer installation; and CTP, CPTu investigation of soil properties.
These are the most popular sampling tool for farmers, agricultural consultants, and soil scientists. They are used to collect a small diameter sample of soil at or near the ground surface for profile description, moisture determination or chemical analysis.
This kit includes everything you need to collect relatively undisturbed samples from non-cohesive materials and various types of impoundments. Click Here to watch the How-To Video.
Farmers and researchers in the agricultural industry have used AMS soil probes and augers for over 50 years. AMS now offers a variety of nematode samplers, and the 9100-Ag Probe, an ATV-mounted PowerProbe rig.
AMS Augers are used for obtaining disturbed samples at or near the surface and for boring to depths where samples may be obtained with another soil sampler. AMS augers have stainless steel cylinders and come with either carbon steel or stainless steel bits.
Kits include either dedicated tips, or dedicated tips and retract-a-tip. They are excellent for monitoring and sampling hydrocarbon spill sites, underground storage tanks and pipelines. The Retract-A-Tip can be used multiple times without damage.
Simplify purging and sampling of monitoring wells, determine the nature and extent of contamination, and monitor water quality and flow rate. AMS well management systems increase well-monitoring efficiency, and save you time, money and labor.
AMS bottom dredges use a two-way spring-loaded mechanism to trigger closure upon contact with the bottom. Ekman dredge uses a spring-loaded mechanism that is triggered either by a messenger or the optional handle.
The PowerCore Asphalt & Concrete Coring System is a convenient, cost efficient method for retrieving soil samples from underneath concrete or asphalt. Simply bore a small hole in the pavement and collect multiple clean core samples.
This new machine positions the hammer, auger motor, winch, and auto-drop all over the same borehole, and the new auger and hammer system have hydraulic pivot and locking.
AMS water level and product/water interface meters use lightweight, aluminum reel construction. There are no plastic faceplates or plastic hubs to break.

No more threaded connections! The New AMS 3-1/4” Hex Quick Pin Sampling Kit allows for collection of both disturbed & relatively undisturbed core samples down to a depth of 12ft. This kit features hardened steel male/female hex connections that accept standard 3/8” snapper pins or heat treated 3/8” U-clips. The simplicity of the snap pins is unmatched for hand auger applications, while the heat treated 3/8” U-clips will allow you to hammer & reverse hammer your core sampler with confidence.
The AMS Gator Probe is a one-of-a-kind soil probe that 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 footpeg 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 AMS Frozen Soil Powered Auger Kit was designed to core through those dreaded frozen soil conditions. The Core Barrel Auger is equipped with carbide cutting teeth that are specifically designed to chew through tough frozen soil and pull relatively undisturbed cores inside the barrel.
The new AMS Deluxe Fiberglass Auger Kit provides some protection against possible electric shock when working in areas where buried electric cables may be present. This kit features the trusted AMS Signature Series thread pattern.
The AMS “Piezometer Groundwater Sampling Kit” was designed in response to our clients’ need for a manually-operated sampling kit, capable of providing a semi-permanent sampling point for water level measurements and shallow groundwater sampling investigations. This complete kit includes everything needed to take groundwater measurements and collect samples to a depth of 12ft., below ground surface.
AMS BioBailers™ have all the same characteristics you expect from ESP’s Clear-View bailers. They are easy to use, clean, and made of high-quality materials. They have been tested for non-leaching using the SPLP EPA 1312 extraction process followed by analysis using EPA 8260 for volatiles and EPA 8270 for semi-volatiles. They provide assurance of clear and accurate samples, and they will biodegrade in a few years – no longer adding plastic to our landfills.

The new AMS Fiberglass Auger Kit provides some protection against possible electric shock when working in areas where buried electric cables may be present. It includes a fiberglass tile probe, a fiberglass handle and extension, and a signature series soil auger.
These meters provide instantaneous readings of root zone soil moisture. They are based on proven time-domain measurement technology. These portable units accurately measure soil moisture across the full range of soil moisture conditions. Select from the 4.8 or 8-inch (12 or 20-cm) probe rods to suit your desired depth measurement...
These new sampling kits are designed for soil professionals who want the strongest, most durable augers, extensions, cross handles, slide hammers, and split-core samplers available. Our new professional series components also feature AMS's most reliable heavy-duty connection type, the 3/4" threaded connection.
The AMS Mini Soil Core Sampling Kit has everything you need for augering to 12' and then collect a virtually undisturbed soil core sample in a liner. The kit includes a 3 1/4" regular auger, four 3' extensions, rubber-coated cross handle, 2" x 6" soil core sampler, slide hammer, 2 plastic end caps, liner, 2 wrenches, universal slip wrench and poly-canvas case.
AMS Ratcheting Cross Handles feature a new and improved open mechanism that makes cleaning the handle easier, improving reliability. The 18" handles are fitted with comfortable grips and allow for more torque. Also, a switch is built in to allow for reverse action when using the AMS Quick Connect thread option.
AMS Dual Purpose Replaceable Tip Soil Recovery Probes are soil probes that can be used with or without liners, and allow for the tip of the soil probe to be replaced after heavy use! These soil probes also feature the AMS "Reach and Grab" system which allows the plastic liner to protrude from the top of the soil probe body into the top cap. This system makes it easy to remove the liner from the soil probe body without disturbing the sample.
The AMS 3 1/4" Regular Soil Auger Kit is a simple soil augering set up that allows the user to auger to 4'. The 3 1/4" regular soil auger, 18" rubber-coatedcross handle and 4' extension in the kit use the AMS 5/8" Threaded connection type. Additional 5/8" Threaded extensions may be purchased separately to increase the depth to which the auger can reach.
