Technical Data

Helcon Screw Piles manufacture, install and certify the patented, cutting edge technology of Helcons’ screw piling system, using the latest design multi-fin cast steel helix and cast steel male and female coupling system all fully welded to high strength steel shafts.

Complying with Section 8 of AS 2159, the Australian Standard for Piling, Helcon screw piles allows Builders and Engineers to specify Helcon Piles with full confidence.

Features

Benefits

Multi-fin, high strength helix

 

 

>   Greater geotechnical contact area for founding than single plate helix

>   Uplift capacity of conical shape helix is equal to download capacity, subject to minimum depths

>   Ideal for cyclone and earthquake rated construction

>   Higher strength steel than traditional 350mpa plate helix, with heavier wall thickness in greater load areas

>   Helix tip able to penetrate rocky and shale grounds much better than plate tip helix

>   Helix attached to shaft end by MIG welding allows full structural capacity to be used without collapsing shaft wall

>   Cast steel helix cannot bend or fold up against shaft as plate helix can

Cast steel female coupling

 

 

>   Coupling allows easy disconnect from drive tool once pile is installed

>   Coupling allows full reversal wind of pile to remove and reinstall

>   Coupling allows quick attachment of extension pieces for installation of deep piles – no welding onsite required

Cast steel male coupling

 

 

 

>   Used on extension pieces for quick connection to female coupling on pilot piles

>   Are pre welded in house to nominated extension lengths removing need for any site welding

>   Form the basis for any “Quickhitch” connection accessories or attachments to pilot pile

 

High / grade pile shafts to API 5L X42 / AS1163 C350

 


 

>   Prime pipe manufactured to Australian and International standards ensures shafts are to design specification and not subject to structural failure

>   System design allows full structural design use of pile shaft diameter and wall thickness

>   Pilots and extensions typically up to 6 metre lengths with multiples used for deeper piles
