More Information

Strainer posts are larger posts for use at the ends or corners of netting or line wire runs. These larger posts enable the netting to be strained up (pulled tight). Each strainer is usually braced with smaller diameter peeled posts.

Our softwood peeled strainer posts are pressure treated using the latest generation preservatives to UC4 standard.

Extra treatment

To further extend the life of your peeled posts, add additional protection to the ground-level area susceptible to rot. Bitumen protective treatment or wood preserver are both suitable for this purpose.

Please note

All treated softwood peeled round strainer posts are susceptible to natural movement or shaking (vertical cracks in the wood). This is a normal weathering process as the timber expands and contracts. These problems do not usually affect the structural integrity of the post and will mostly disappear when colder, moist weather returns. Therefore, this is not considered to be a defect unless very severe.
