Difference between Micro Piles and Pipe piles

Pipe piles
Pipe piles are applied in various constructions. Some examples: they can be used as foundation piles to support bridges, buildings or other structures onshore and offshore, as a pipe line to transport fluids in or as pipe anchor. We can deliver in various thicknesses, diameters and steel grades. On request we apply coating, weld on interlocks (for combined walls) or modify the pipes to your specific requirements.


Micro Piles (threaded casings)
Micro piles are threaded small diameter pipe piles. They are also known as threaded casings or mini piles. Because of the short length and the threading they are suitable for foundation constructions with limited access. Micro piles can also be installed by drilling them into the ground instead of vibrating to protect surrounding structures. With a drill bit connected on the end of a micro pile they also used for anchoring purposes: as a casing to install GTB bar anchors or as Screw injection pile with a drill head at the top that enables adding grout cement. Below you can find some examples of the available micro piles.
