IDEAL® Square Shaft and Round Shaft Helical Piles

Round Shaft Helical Piles

IDEAL® piles are segmented, extendable shafts ranging in size and capacity. Round shaft pipe piles have a larger section modulus than square shaft helical piers with a sleeved, two- or three-bolt connection. They are a solid choice in loose soils, mitigating lateral or buckling concerns. Contact us today to learn more about our selection of round shaft pipe piles.

Square Shaft Helical Piles

IDEAL® Group manufactures an extensive selection of round shaft and round corner square shaft helical piles and anchors. All products come bare or as galvanized steel. Square shaft helicals are round-cornered, extendable solid steel bars ranging in size and capacity. Most square shaft helical piles are available in sections of 3, 5, 7, and 10 feet long. Square shaft helical anchors are the best choice for many tension applications and some compression applications such as sand, hard soil layers, and trash sites.

Square shaft helical piles can be more versatile than pipe piles with more sacrificial steel. They’re a good choice for aggressive soils or high water tables. Contact us today to learn more about square shaft helical piles.
