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.

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 |
