Description

Use a stretcher bar to ensure equal tension in all lines, or use two wire strainers in tandem: strain up and fix the top and bottom wires, then work inwards. If roll of chain link fencing runs out before the end of a run, join the rolls by removing a spiral from the end of the roll to be joined on to. This is easily achieved by releasing the ends of the first spiral and winding the spiral along until it is fully removed. Bring together the end of one roll with the beginning of the other roll and reinsert the removed spiral but this time 'knitting' the two rolls together - when fully inserted, close the ends of the spiral which was removed. Splitting a roll of fencing Concrete and Timber Posts - ensure that the straining wires are evenly spaced between top and bottom edge of the fencing (about 100cm down from the top of the fencing up 100cm up from the bottom). Loosely fit the end eyebolts and stretcher bar cleats with nuts (with large washers on both sides of the post), use two cleats and eyebolts with ring-nuts on intermediate straining posts. To finish off, saw off any minor damage to the posts, nail up splits and ensure cut wire ends are sunk into the posts. Rabbit netting, chain link and palings When the posts are firmly set, unroll the coil of straining wire and feed it along/through the posts. The number of line wires required depends on the height of the fence, as a guide:

Finally, if you are burying the bottom of the fence, go along the previously dug trench and arrange the fencing, you may decide to peg-down the bottom edge or weigh it down with rubble before replacing the soil.Changes in direction can be made by cutting and sinking in the rails into the post. Post and wire fencing Galvanised Straining Line Wire is manufactured from steel which has been galvanised with a zinc coating to help it withstand the elements, resist rust and corrosion, and remain strong. The wire is used to ensure that the top of fence netting or mesh is tensioned and taut, providing strength and helping to prevent damage to the fence by animals or vandals. This wire is also available with a PVC coating for use with PVC-coated fencing.

Straining wires are pulled tight using a tool that is sometimes called a “ monkey strainer” that uses chains and a ratchet mechanism to pull wires taut so they can carry the wire mesh. binding wire At each change of direction of the fence, sever the roll by untwisting the spiral next to the stretching bar, do this before you insert the stretcher bar.

It’s usually the thinnest wire on the fence, at 1.6mm in diameter, and it’s used every foot or about 30 centimeters along each straining wire to secure the mesh. Like binding wire, tie wire is passed around the mesh and straining wire and then twisted together securely. Twisting and Finishing Wires This wire is usually 2.5mm diameter and is used to “bind” the straining wires to the line posts or standards as they are also known. This is done by passing the binding wires through holes in the intermediate posts before twisting the ends together. Tie Wire Where the wire is along the side of the posts, either hammer the staples fully home on timber posts, or on cement posts, go along and using short pieces of straining wire, secure the wire at each post as shown right. Walk the line of the fence explaining what work will be undertaken. Identify potential hazards and explain how to work safely around them.

Ensure all team members are wearing appropriate footwear and clothing and issue specified safety equipment. Introduction Demonstrate all new work techniques as you come to them. This will save mistakes and avoid accidents. Tip: To view the product code and full product table on mobile please tilt your device to landscape. Bare in mind that if you are using the wire for an art project or precision appliance that all of the different wires have a tolerance of ±0.2mm in their diameter Work out the exact line of the fence and the positions of the straining posts. These are usually determined by the lie of the land (a post at every change of direction or major change of gradient), but straining posts can be up to 110m apart, although 50m is preferable.Fittings supplied are designed to work together and are manufactured from high quality long lasting stainless steel making it perfect for your garden or any outdoor application. Unlike North American fences, where tie wires are often pre-bent (and used to secure the mesh to line posts and top rails), tie wire in warm weather mesh fences is used to tie the mesh to the straining wires. Staples should be put in diagonally and only driven home on straining posts. On other posts the wire should be free to move.
