HERMEQ’s ThyssenKrupp U Piles are engineered for strength, adaptability, and fast site installation—making them the go-to trench sheeting system for American infrastructure projects. These U-shaped steel sheet piles use Larssen interlocks to form tight, high-load bearing walls with excellent water resistance in deep excavations or marine applications.

Designed for trench retention, pit shoring, and shoreline construction, the U-pile profile maximizes rigidity while allowing continuous wall formation. These hot-rolled steel trench sheets are available in multiple grades—including S270GP to S390GP—for performance under hydraulic and lateral pressure in critical support roles.

  • Heavy-duty trench sheeting – U-pile geometry delivers high strength-to-weight ratio and bending resistance.
  • Engineered for versatility – Ideal for cofferdams, bridge abutments, ports, and flood control zones.
  • Larssen-type interlocks – Watertight and secure jointing system ensures structural stability.
  • Cut-to-length available – Delivered with pre-cut sling holes for fast on-site handling.
  • Full profile range – Available in models L601 through L607 to meet design load demands.

These sheet piles integrate easily into straight runs, curved layouts, or corner transitions. The steel profile can also be upgraded with sealants, bracing, or beam reinforcement. Reusable and tough, they offer both temporary and permanent retaining performance, helping reduce excavation collapse risk and water ingress.

HERMEQ U Piles are also compatible with U.S. structural accessories including tie rods, walers, H-beams, and support tubes. Whether for road expansion, water retention, or coastal works, this trench system streamlines engineering, boosts site safety, and lowers total install time.

HERMEQ stocks a full range of Trench Sheets, Groundworks, Trench Covers, and Road Plates built for U.S. standards.
