Techno Pieux galvanized metal post

The P4-16 galvanized metal post manufactured by Techno Pieux is a screwed metal post used to establish the necessary foundations for a given construction project. The structure to be supported may be residential (house, cottage, etc.), touristic (flagpoles, signposts, etc.), energy sector-related (solar panel structures), infrastructure projects (footbridge) or industrial and commercial (machinery, offices). The P4-16 metal post can achieve load-bearing capacities of 200 kN in compression, 100 kN in tension and 12 kN in lateral capacity. A secondary function of the product is to contribute to the aesthetics of the structure to be supported.

The galvanized metal post is made of galvanized steel to which a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheathing can be added to protect it from ground movement caused by freezing and thawing. A metal post consists of a steel tube with one or more steel helixes. Its length varies from 2 to 3 metres, and its diameter ranges from 48.3 mm to 168.3 mm. The P4-16 galvanized metal post has a length of 2 meters and a diameter of 101.6 mm. Accessories (steel base plates and rings) are used to secure the metal post to the structure. When the depth required to achieve the desired load-bearing capacity is greater than the length of the metal post, one or more extensions can be used. An extension consists of a tube without a helix and an HDPE sheathing.
