Kard tensioned impregnated fence post 1200 mm, diameter 28 mm

Kard tensioned impregnated fence post 1200 mm, diameter 28 mm is a wooden post treated with a preservative to increase resistance to moisture and biological decay. With a length of 1200 mm and a slim 28 mm diameter, the post is intended for tensioned wire and lightweight fencing where support and durability are required without heavy structural load.

Advantages

The impregnation treatment extends service life by protecting the wood from rot and fungal attack; the slim profile reduces visual bulk while providing adequate rigidity for tensioned wire and light fence panels. Its uniform length and diameter simplify installation and alignment across runs of fencing, and compatibility with wire, twine and simple fasteners makes it adaptable to a variety of lightweight enclosure solutions.

Suitable for

• Garden enclosures and boundary markers
• Supporting tensioned wire, twine or mesh for lightweight fencing
• Temporary partitions and seasonal barriers
• Areas where low visual impact posts are preferred

Key specifications

• Material: impregnated wood
• Length: 1200 mm
• Diameter: 28 mm
• Surface treatment: preservative impregnation
• Intended load: designed for tensioned wire and light fence loads

How to use

Select post spacing appropriate to the type of wire or mesh and the expected tension; typical spacing for tensioned wire is determined by fence height and load. Drive or set posts into the ground to a depth that ensures stability—commonly around one quarter to one third of the total length—using a hand mallet or post driver suitable for the post diameter. Attach wire, twine or lightweight mesh with suitable fasteners, ensuring even tension to prevent leaning or undue strain. Cut any excess length if required and inspect connections for secure fixing.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, install posts on stable, well-drained ground and avoid continuous soil saturation. Use corrosion-resistant staples or clips for fastening and re-tension wires periodically. If contact with treated wood and skin is a concern, use gloves and wash hands after handling.
