Don't risk serious injury to your back, hands, or wrists. Pull soil samples easily with our JMC Backsaver N-2 Handle. Your best option for fast "plow layer" (12 to 18 inches) sampling.

Simply step down on the footpedal to plant your sampling tube. Then, grab the hand grip (now near waist level) and use your legs to lift the sampler out of the ground. Clean your tube quickly with the JMC Special Cleaner held in a leather pouch on your belt and you are ready to go again.

Our JMC Backsaver N-2 Handle fits a variety of soil sampling tubes. Each tube features a self-sharpening tip that outlasts common replaceable tips eight to one and pulls consistently good cores.

We have 4 kinds of tubes for this option.

Wet Sampling Tubes. Work best in soft, moist soils. Core diameter is 0.688 inches.   Dry Sampling Tubes. Work best in hard, dry soils. Core diameter is 0.75 inches. (If you just want one tube, get one of these,)   Ag Consultant's Sampling Tube Same tip design as the Dry Tubes. Core diameter is 0.56 inches.   Large Diameter Sampling Tube Same tip design as the Dry Tubes. Core diameter is 1.2 inches.

All tubes feature hardened cutting tips, DOM high strength steel, and a protective electroless nickel-plated finish. Handle also compatible with the JMC Zero Contamination Sampling Tubes. JMC Special Cleaner rapidly removes soil core and prepares tube for next sample. Footpedal offers extra leverage for penetrating hard ground. Strong, lightweight, nickel-plated, steel tubing protects against rust and wear.

Note: While it is possible to add extensions to this handle, we recommend that you consider our JMC Backsaver Handle for those applications that require samples deeper than the length of your sampling tube. Click on the link in the Related Products list below for more information.
