Product Information

Full details

This guide is for anyone needing quick, portable, and insulated fencing solutions for livestock, gardens, or events. The key benefit is the rapid setup and easy relocation of temporary fences. A minor caveat is the need for suitable ground conditions for the footplate to be effective without a hammer. These 4ft (1.2m) green plastic electric fence posts, sold in packs of 50, are fully insulated for electric fencing and feature 8 integral hooks for various barrier materials, offering a rust-free, UV-resistant, and robust solution for mobile or temporary fencing needs.

FAQs

What is the total height of the post?

The total height is approximately 120cm (4ft), with 102cm above ground and an 18cm metal spike.

Can these posts be used for permanent fencing?

These posts are designed for mobile or temporary fencing solutions due to their plastic construction and ease of movement.

What is the maximum width of electric tape these posts can accommodate?

They are designed for use with electric fencing or tape up to 2 inches wide.

Do I need a hammer to install them?

A hammer is often not required due to the handy footplate, but it can be helpful in very hard ground conditions.

Are these posts weather-resistant?

Yes, they are made from UV-resistant polypropylene, designed to withstand outdoor conditions.

What is the weight of a single post?

The weight of a single post is approximately 33.07 pounds, indicating a robust construction.

Can I use these posts with mesh or netting?

Yes, the 8 integral hooks allow for the attachment of various materials, including mesh or netting, to create a safety fence.

Troubleshooting

Post is difficult to insert into the ground.

Ensure the ground is adequately moist. If the ground is very hard or rocky, use a hammer to gently tap the top of the post, or select a different location.

Fencing material is not staying securely on the hooks.

Ensure the fencing material is tensioned correctly. For wider tapes or ropes, consider using additional ties or clips if needed, although the hooks are designed for secure holding.

Post feels unstable after installation.

Check that the post is inserted to its full depth. Ensure the ground conditions are suitable; very loose or sandy soil may require wider spacing or additional support for high-tension fences.

Reduced effectiveness of electric fence.

Verify that the posts are correctly installed and that the insulation is intact. Ensure there are no conductive materials (like wet grass touching the fence line) that could ground the current. Check the energizer output.

Pros and Cons

  • Fully insulated, making them safe for electric fencing applications.

  • Versatile for various types of fencing materials and applications.

Cons

  • The footplate may require a hammer in very hard or rocky ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up, simply place the metal spike at the desired location and push the post into the ground using the integrated footplate. For very hard ground, a hammer may be used carefully on the top of the post. Attach your chosen fencing material (electric tape, rope, mesh, etc.) to the 8 integral hooks.

Compatibility: These posts are fully insulated and suitable for use with electric fencing or tape up to 2" wide. They are compatible with a wide range of fencing materials that can be secured to the hooks.

Care: Clean the posts with a damp cloth as needed. Store them in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan. The UV-resistant polypropylene is designed to withstand outdoor elements.
