Description

Permanent Wire Strainer – Box 40 x Ratchet Tensioners

The Permanent Wire Strainer Box 40 contains 40 ratchet-style wire tensioners designed for permanent electric fence and rural fence installations. Each wire tensioner in this box uses a ratchet mechanism to apply and hold tension on fence wires without requiring a separate fencing tool. The tensioner locks the wire at the desired tension and maintains that tension permanently, even as the wire expands and contracts with temperature changes.

Buying a box of 40 wire tensioner units makes this product an economical solution for large fencing projects with multiple wires and runs. Each tensioner works as a permanent installation fitting — once crimped and ratcheted into position, it stays in place for the life of the fence. The ratchet mechanism is straightforward to operate, and the compact size means tensioners can be installed at strainer posts without requiring large tool access around the post area.

Why Use Permanent tensioners on Your Fence?

First and foremost, this this fitting system eliminates the need for traditional tie-off methods that can loosen over time. Furthermore, the ratchet mechanism allows precise tension adjustment without specialist fencing knowledge or expensive equipment. As a result, even single-person fence installations achieve the consistent tension needed for effective livestock containment. In addition, the bulk box format reduces cost per unit for large projects with many wire runs. According to the Australian Department of Agriculture, correct wire tension is a key factor in the performance and longevity of rural fence systems.

Installation Tips for Ratchet each tensioners

Before fitting each the tensioner, thread the fence wire through the tensioner body according to the manufacturer’s instruction. Then, apply initial tension by hand before engaging the ratchet to pull the wire to the required tension level. In addition, check the wire is seated correctly in the ratchet groove before applying full tension to prevent slippage. Finally, inspect each tensioner after the fence is complete to confirm all wires are at a consistent tension across the full fence run.
