Inertia Weld

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″ to 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.
