Product Description

Precision Monitoring for Helical Piers, Screw Piles, and Ground Screws

In a tightening regulatory environment, “good enough” is a liability. The DATUM Auger Hawk is the professional wireless solution for contractors specializing in helical piers, screw piles, and ground screws. By replacing legacy hydraulic gauges with a high-fidelity digital system, you deliver the transparency and data integrity required by modern structural engineering standards.

Engineered for Professional Applications:

Helical Piers: Guarantee every pier meets the specific torque-to-capacity correlation required for building stabilization and remedial lifting projects.
Screw Piles: Simultaneously track depth, thrust, and rotation counts. The system confirms exactly when you hit the load-bearing strata, preventing “false-bottom” readings and pile failure.
Ground Screws: Designed for high-efficiency, high-volume projects like solar farms or modular foundations. Rapid-fire installation is backed by automated, per-unit data logging.

Why NZ Contractors Standardise on DATUM:

Real-Time Tactical Data: View live Torque, Thrust, RPM, and Angle on a rugged tablet via the Datum Link App.
Council-Ready Compliance: Generate professional .CSV and Excel-ready reports instantly. Our GPS-stamped logging provides a digital “as-built” map of every installation for QA and client handover.
Equipment Protection & Safety: Safeguard your drive heads from overload. The system provides immediate operator alerts before limits are reached, preventing catastrophic gear failure and site downtime.
Built for the Field: IP65-rated for dust and water resistance, functioning from -20°C to +60°C. Powered by standard AA batteries, ensuring you never have to stop work for a proprietary charger.
