AG-POST STRAIN-IT.

WHY ARE STRAINER ASSEMBLIES IMPORTANT?

Strainer Assemblies are the most important structure in any fence and more often than not, the success of your strainer assembly will make or break your fence. Taking the time to erect strainer assemblies correctly is crucial to ensure the durability and longevity to your fence.

WHERE ARE STRAINER ASSEMBLIES REQUIRED?

The need for a strainer assembly is required to start and end your fence. Where there is a change of direction and/or topography in your fence, or a structure to support a gateway, strainer assemblies are also needed.

STRAIN-IT POSTS

The top three factors that contribute to a failed fence are; structural failure, post pull-out & soil movement. Therefore, strainer posts need to be built deep into the ground.

The deeper the strainer post, the better your fence. Due to the increased vertical & horizontal force put on strainer posts, the depth of your strainer post is one of the most important factors in ensuring that your strainer assembly will last over an extended period of time.

STAYKITS

STAYS

HEIGHT OF STAYS - A stay of good height should be TWO THIRDS of the height of your post from level ground. Your stay should be at an angle of about 30 DEGREES to the ground in order to give your strainer maximum support.

If your stay is set too low, it will compromise your strainer post and pull the post out of the ground. However, if your stay is set too high, your stay will pull the post inwards and collapse the assembly.

WHAT LENGTH SHOULD MY STAY BE?

A stay plays an essential part in the holding power of a strainer assembly. The general rule of thumb for stay lengths is that they should be at least two & a half times the height of your fence.
