The Clarity Composite Fencing Steel Post Insert is designed for DIYers and professional contractors who require a sturdy structural foundation for composite fence installations. By providing a rigid internal support system, these inserts ensure that your fence remains upright and resistant to heavy winds; however, proper alignment during the initial concrete pouring process is critical, as adjustments are difficult once the concrete has cured.

These inserts are specifically engineered for Clarity composite fencing. Compatibility with wood posts is not guaranteed.
Consult the specific installation instructions for your fence height, typically ensuring the insert is anchored deep enough to support the weight and wind load of your specific panel configuration.
The inserts are manufactured for outdoor use; provided they are kept clear of standing water by using proper post caps, no additional treatment is required.
It provides the rigid vertical structure that prevents the composite fencing from leaning or moving during wind events.
While steel can be cut with appropriate metal-cutting equipment, we recommend using them at their full length to maintain maximum structural depth in the ground.
Ensure the concrete mix was sufficient and properly compacted around the insert during the pouring phase.
Check for concrete splatter or debris inside the post or on the insert and clear it before attempting to slide the post down.
Use a spirit level on at least two sides of the steel insert before the concrete sets, as this is the only time adjustments can be made.
To set up these inserts, begin by marking your post centers and digging your holes to the required depth and diameter as specified by your local building codes. Position the steel insert vertically, ensuring it is level, before pouring concrete around the base.
Compatibility: These inserts are specifically designed for Clarity composite fence posts. Avoid using them with incompatible materials that might cause galvanic corrosion or fitment issues.
Care: Since the inserts are buried, they require no maintenance after installation. However, ensure that the composite post cap is properly installed over the top of the composite post to prevent water from pooling inside the post cavity, which could accelerate rust on the insert.
