Helix Column Body
Polure helix column body shafts provide decorative twisted spiral central sections for interior and exterior architectural columns. Molded from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these hollow shaft sections replicate classical Solomon-style twisted masonry columns with hardwood-like structural density while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. Their closed-cell structure keeps water absorption below 1%, protecting them against rot, swelling, mold, and weather damage. Fire-rated Class B2 for self-extinguishing safety, they withstand thermal ranges from -100 °C / +80 °C. Factory-primed in white acrylic paint, they readily accept water-based or synthetic finishes. Important: these column bodies are purely decorative and non-load-bearing; structural loads must be supported by an internal steel profile. Concrete must never be poured inside. Standard section height is 240 cm. Installation requires continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive on joint faces and mechanical countersunk screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Polure helix column bodies carry structural weight?
No, they are hollow decorative elements and non-load-bearing. Structural loads require an internal steel profile.
Can concrete be poured inside a Polure helix column body?
No, concrete must never be poured inside polyurethane column shafts as curing expansion will damage the shell.
What material is the helix column body made of?
It is crafted from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³) with Class B2 fire safety and <1% water absorption.
What is the standard height of the helix column body shaft?
The standard section height is 240 cm, easily trimmed or extended during installation.
