Recently the experimental evidence was given for the flip of the spin helix chirality in the two Fe-based germanide compounds Mn1−xFexGe [1] and Fe1−xCoxGe [2]. In this talk we report the similar effect for the Fe-based silicide Fe1−xCoxSi at a critical concentration xc. We have synthesized single-crystalline Fe1−xCoxSi compounds with x running from 0.5 to 0.7 via Czochralski-method. SQUID magnetization measurements have shown the magnetic ordering of all these samples below Tc. At the critical concentration xc ≈ 0.65 we observed a transformation of the helical structure to a ferromagnetic one ( | ks | → 0 ). Polarized small-angle neutron scattering revealed the different sign of the spin helicity for compounds with x > xc and x < xc.
