Sheet piles

For driving sheet piles both the S series and SC series can be equipped with "sheetlegs". These legs give the hammer the required stability when driving sheet piles in a free riding mode. This eliminates the necessity of a leader and driving can be done with the aid of a regular crane (see picture below). 

Many types of profiles can be driven, single sheetpiles, double sheetpiles, single H-beams, double H-beams, combi walls, etc. Our new and smallest S-30 Hydrohammer® is specially designed for driving sheetpiles. The small diameter of Ø460 mm gives the possibility to drive single sheetpiles and the weight of the hammer in combination with the sheetlegs is beneath the 7 tons.

Another new development is the polygonal anvil. The special shape gives the possibility to drive a wide range of sheetpiles with maximum coverage. This range goes from the small profiles, width 500 (for example: Hoesch L22) to the big profiles, width 700 (for example: Arcelor AZ40-700), width 750 (for example: Arcelor AU26).

Our newest development is the new type of sheetlegs for our S-30 and S-40 Hydrohammer®. The futuristic shape of the upper part has a high stiffness.

These sheetlegs can be used with the polygonal anvil for double sheetpiles and with an anvil for single sheetpiles.
