CHANCE® Helical Anchors
Reliable Uplift and Tension Restraint Solutions

MaurerCo Retaining Walls installs CHANCE® Helical Anchors, a proven system originally developed for the utility industry and now trusted across civil and commercial applications. Manufactured by Hubbell Power Systems and distributed by Foundation Technologies, these anchors deliver reliable tension support in both temporary and permanent structures.

How They Work

CHANCE® Helical Anchors are steel shafts with one or more helical bearing plates welded near the tip. The anchor is rotated into the soil, advancing downward like a screw until the bearing plates reach competent, load-bearing material. Once in place, the system provides immediate uplift and tension resistance. This means there is no excavation, concrete, or cure time required.


These ground screw anchors are ideal for penetrating through soft, loose, or expansive soils to reach stable strata. The result is a precise, code-compliant solution for projects that demand dependable tension performance and minimal site disturbance.

Applications

  • Retaining wall tiebacks and shoring systems
