Which clamp should I fit on a side grip pile driver for round piles?

Question

VANROCK Group · Accepted Answer

Use the round pile clamp that matches the pile diameter. The side grip uses interchangeable clamps, so you do not change the whole attachment body for a different pile type.

The stated round pile clamp ranges are:
- Round pile clamp (S): Ø76–355 mm
- Round pile clamp (L): Ø406–610 mm

The standard clamp is for sheet piles and H-beams. VANROCK specifies quick transfer between applications, which is the practical advantage of the interchangeable side clamp system. If your work shifts between sheet piles and round piles, the correct approach is to keep the same side grip model matched to the excavator and change the clamp to suit the pile.
