Helibore pipe

Our Helibore pipe is a helically wound, corrugated pipe produced from pre-galvanised steel coil. It is well established as the most cost effective and versatile drainage pipe product available to the construction industry.

Our modular approach to the construction of stormwater tanks, culverts, tunnels and underpasses dramatically cuts installation time and costs.

Helibore's hot dip galvanised steel pipes are available in diameters from 0.3m to 3.6m. For aggressive and very aggressive environments, Trenchcoat polymer secondary protection adds significant durability and service life.
