Why choose metal electric fence posts?

Metal electric fence posts are a type of fencing material used to build temporary or permanent electric fences. These posts are made of steel or other metals like steel. The electric fencing posts are designed to support electric wires, creating a barrier that keeps animals within a designated area or prevents them from entering.

The advantages of metal electric fence posts are that they are durable, weather-resistant, and long-lasting. They are also easy to install and maintain and can be used in a variety of applications, from livestock fencing to wildlife control.

Tips for determining the best metal electric fence posts

To determine the best metal electric fence posts for your needs, consider the size of the animals you are trying to contain, the type of terrain you are working with, and the climate in your area. Also, consider the number of wires you plan to use and the length of the fence line. 

Types of metal electric fence posts

When you have decided to go for metal electric fence posts, you encounter different options. One of the most popular options for posts made of steel are the pigtail posts. The curl loop that secures the wire and resembles a pig's tail gives these posts their name.

Pigtail posts are available from many different brands.While a very good solution, the pigtail posts also have some challenges. Because of the pigtail, posts tend to tangle, which make them hard to handle when setting up your fence.

Gallagher has invented a solution for this issue. While comparable to the Pigtail, Gallagher's Ring Top post features a ring-shaped nylon head that resists wear and minimises tangling. The glass reinforced nylon footplate of the post is sturdy and unbending. Gallagher's Ring Top posts are available in normal and heavy duty models, both of which have very high strength glass filled nylon heads and feet. A more affordable Steel Post Treadin is an alternative to the more expensive Multi Wire Ring Top Post.

A basic line post alternative to a wood post is a metal electric fence post. The benefit of steel posts is that they may be set up without the need of costly post hole diggers or tractor-mounted drivers by utilising a sledge hammer or a manual post driver. Additionally, it is simple to force them into tougher terrain. Steel post insulators from Gallagher may be attached to a steel post and retain a fence wire.

For fastening a top mounted tape or wire, fence toppers are also offered. Posts are spaced the same as wood posts.
