  • Certified friction Coefficient over 1.0 (certified by DNV) well in excess of the .68 required CAP 437 coefficient of friction. In addition to ridges, cross knurling of the surface is applied during the extrusion process.
  • Decking planks are procured from reputable aluminum mills in the US. Our mill suppliers are certified by DNV and ABS.
  • Decking planks have been fire tested and certified by DNV. The Heliflex 6000 CL planks have been tested for a 10 minute burn test under a specified loading condition by DNV.
  • The V shale decking is the most popular decking shape used in the industry and is used by virtually all current helideck suppliers. Helifex 6000 planks are the original "V" shaped planks and the only patented shape in the industry.
  • Helifex planks can be attached to any type of support framing with our patented Heligrip clamping system. The Heligrip system consisting of clamps, and carriage bolts attached the decking planks to our Patented Heliflex I12 aluminum beams through slots built-in the I beam top flange. Holes are not required for this system. Planks can also be clamped to existing or new steel framing.
  • Paint marking is usually achieved by using a wash primer and polyurethane top coat. No special surface preparation is required.
