Helical Anchors Inc.

The strongest helical piles on earth.

Patented Technology
Inertia welded joints deliver 2× the shear strength of conventional gusset welds.

We manufacture helical piles, piers and anchors with patented inertia weld technology — a foundation system engineered to outperform every load, soil and standard.

Patented Inertia WeldICC-ES CertifiedMade in USAISO 9001; 2015CESCIBSINHBC20+ Years EngineeringHigh Yield StrengthGalvanized to ASTM A123

Foundation systems, engineered to spec.

Thousands of piles stay on the racks in Minneapolis so stock orders ship the same day — and every custom configuration is built to your soil report, load demand and install method.

Friction welding our couplers allows us to increase the grade of the midbody tube to maximize the torque that each size can consistently perform.

Tested to Failure
Every batch · Every project

Destructive testing with documented torque-to-capacity curves archived for every project.

Custom Engineered
2-7/8″ – 12-3/4″ shafts

Lead sections and helix configurations designed to the soil and load profile of your site.

Fast Mobilization
Same-day ship · 3-wk custom

Stocked inventory ships the same day from Minneapolis. Custom builds complete in three weeks or less.

From the soil report to the finished foundation.

01
Engineer

Soil analysis + structural load review define pile geometry and helix configuration.

02
Manufacture

Patented inertia-weld process joins shaft to couplers in seconds without filler metal.

03
Galvanize

Hot-dip ASTM A123 coating for 100+ year service life in aggressive soil conditions.

04
Install

Helical piles are installed in minutes, with no spoils, no vibration and direct feedback on the pile's capacity.
