It's a new generation of Macro-Core® tooling for your direct push soil sampling needs. The MC5 system features a new, aggressive thread design which translates into longer tool wear for the most popular soil sampler in the Direct Push Industry.

Times have changed since the first Macro-Core® tooling was developed in 1994. Machines are larger, hammers are more powerful, and field operators push tool strings deeper into the subsurface. Our reliable and dependable Macro-Core® tooling needed a facelift to respond to the demand for increased strength and longer tool life. The formula to meet these demands began with designing a larger MC Sampler Tube (increased the OD from 2.125 in. to 2.25 in.) which led to beefing up the thread design. These improvements to the already robust Macro-Core® sampler make a great product perform even better in the field. The MC5 parts can be used with all Geoprobe® brand machines but are recommended for use with the 66 and 77 Series machines.

Macro-Core® MC5 parts that have been redesigned with stronger thread system include cutting shoes, sample tubes, and drive heads. These new tools are compatible with the MC Expendables (liners, core catchers, spacer rings) but are not interchangeable with other Macro-Core® tooling.
