They Sell Auger Flighting By The Foot
When Tom McClamroch and his brother Justin bought the auger and flighting company Perry Equipment, Crawfordsville, Ind., in 2018 from their longtime neighbor, Randy Perry, they saw it as a great fit for their families and the community.
A staple of the operation continues to be replacement auger flighting, most being manufactured and produced right in their Crawfordsville shop.
Tom says the majority of their repairs are on transport augers, swing away augers, bin sweeps, bin unloaders and similar equipment.
“We’ll repair augers, build replacement flighting or custom-build augers for specific sizes and needs,” says McClamroch. “Just about anything related to augers we do. We’re like a Home Depot for the grain industry handling all the components for grain legs, elevators, U-troughs and downspouting.”
McClamroch explains that agricultural millwrights throughout the U.S. are Perry’s main customers, plus many more local farmers bring equipment to them for repairs.
“We stock high-quality products and can add hardness or upgrade strength. All our spiral flighting is super edge, with an extra wear lip on the carrying side. We also make stainless steel flighting for fertilizer.”
He says this year steel has been up and down in availability and price, but they continue to have a high demand for truckloads of their standard 9-in. flighting to fit a 10-in. tube. Their 5-ft. sections of flighting are also popular and can be shipped countrywide by UPS.
Regular 9-in. flighting sells for $19 a ft. plus S&H, with prices going up from there. Perry Equipment stocks sizes from 3 in. to 15 in. in 10-ft. lengths, plus 20-ft. lengths for mounted augers. Larger or odd sizes can be custom-ordered.
