Electric Fence Poly Posts - 1.6M - White

The overall length of each post is 1600MM (1.6 Metres). Once installed, approximately 1355MM will be above ground.

Yes, they can be used for permanent fencing, especially in firm soil. For very high-tension fences or areas with extreme weather, consider using them in conjunction with sturdier corner or gate posts.

Each pack contains 20 electric fence poly posts.

While designed for polytape, polyrope, and polywire, they can be used with standard metal wire. However, ensure appropriate insulators are used if direct contact with the plastic is a concern for electrical conductivity.

Spacing depends on the type of fencing material used and the terrain. For polytape and polyrope, a common spacing is 4-7 metres. For polywire, spacing can be wider, up to 10-15 metres, depending on tension and animal pressure.

The metal spike is designed to go approximately 245MM into the ground for stability.

Minimal maintenance is required. Occasional cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Inspect for damage before and after use, especially after severe weather.

Ensure the metal spike is driven deep enough into the ground (at least 245MM). Check for soft or waterlogged soil; consider using additional support stakes or a wider base if necessary for critical points.

Soften the ground by watering it beforehand. Remove any large rocks or roots obstructing the path. Use a rubber mallet or a light hammer with care on the top of the post.

Ensure the tape, rope, or wire is properly tensioned. Some hooks may be better suited for certain types of conductor; try different hook positions if available. For wider polytape, ensure it fits within the hook's opening.
