125/150mm x 2.1m Creosoted Timber Post

Using timber posts with agricultural netting or wire mesh provides a practical solution for protecting livestock, securing crops, and marking property boundaries. This type of fencing is durable, cost-effective, and straightforward to install when the correct materials and methods are used.

Benefits of Creosoted Timber Posts with Agricultural Netting

• Durable & Economical: Offers a cost-effective alternative to metal fencing with reliable long-term performance.
• Strong & Stable: Timber posts paired with high-tensile netting ensure your fence remains secure under pressure.
• Environmentally Responsible: Made from sustainably sourced timber, requiring less energy to produce than steel.
• Easy to Install & Adjust: Simple to set up with basic tools and easy to maintain.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for defining boundaries, protecting crops, and containing livestock.

Pointed Strainer Post

Pointed strainer posts are essential in fencing systems, serving as anchor points to maintain wire tension. They provide strength and stability, preventing sagging or loosening in areas with high stress.

This post is made from pine and measures 2.1m in length with a natural diameter of 125–150mm, retaining its tapered shape from being debarked rather than machine-processed. The pointed end allows easier installation into compact or rocky soil, reducing the need for large holes or heavy equipment.

Installation typically involves backfilling with soil, gravel, or stones. For extra security, concrete post mix can be used, and struts or braces may be added where additional support is required.

Creosote Treatment: Important Information

Creosote is a traditional wood preservative that extends the life of timber and provides a distinctive finish. However, it should not be used in areas with frequent skin contact, near livestock handling, edible plants, or close to waterways. Always follow local regulations to ensure safe usage.

Typical Applications

• Creosoted timber posts are ideal for:
• Marking farm and estate boundaries
• Fencing rural paths and trails
• Supporting young trees and landscaping projects

Timber is naturally strong, easy to work with, and suitable for outdoor conditions, especially in rural or remote locations.
