The ION quick release / drill adapter combo is made with the same durable steel as our augers, and it allows you to quickly switch between auger bits without having to unbolt the auger from the powerhead. Simply raise the locking mechanism, twist out the old auger bit, and fasten in the new one, with no need for any additional tools. The included drill adapter connects the same way, and turns your ION into a versatile multi-tool to drill in shelter ice anchors.
