Electric fence posts in 3ft, 4ft and 5ft sizes. All poly fence posts are vertically reinforced for extra stability and feature a combination of different slots for various fence lines such as poly tape, poly wire and poly rope.
Dependent on the animal you are fencing we will have the fence post you need. The 3ft high posts are generally used in pig, sheep and pony fencing. The larger 4ft and 5ft are used in electric fencing for horses.
Usually electric fence posts are spaced from 5m-7m apart but on shorter runs and a stronger fences this spacing can be reduced. Poly posts are used in electric fences when fencing is temporary and is likely to moved regularly. As part of electric fence system poly posts are very useful as they are needed to strip grazing and also fencing off paddocks internally.
Fence posts included in this category are made from metal or high grade UV protected plastic. The round metal posts will require insulators in order to secure your fence line. The plastic posts are already insulated and have slots or holes to support the different types of fence lines at various heights. All plastic fence posts have a mixture of wire, rope and tape slots.
Its is recommended that you will need to position fence posts between 5m and 7m apart. In areas where your fence is sheltered and with more highly tensioned fence lines you will be able to extend this distance between posts, but in highly exposed windy area and rough terrain the electric fence posts should be a shorter distance apart. The better your strainposts at the start, corners and end of the fence, the greater the fence post distance you will be able to afford. Strain end posts should be wooden or metal permanent posts which are driven well into the grouns to offer support for the fence line.
