How to Use

Peeled posts can be knocked in by hand using a Maul or Post Rammer or with a powered Post Rammer. Do not use sledge hammers, as they have a rounded face that tends to split post tops.

Measuring & Quantity Calculations

These posts are normally spaced between 1.8m and 3m centres, depending on their use.

Installation Tips

We stock hardwood chestnut posts suitable for netting up to 1.2m high as an alternative to pressure-treated posts.

To further extend the life of your peeled or chestnut posts, you can add additional protection to the post in the ground-level area, which is susceptible to rot, with a layer of Bitumen protective treatment or wood preserver.

Health & Safety
Health & Safety:

We recommend wearing gloves and safety glasses to avoid splinters and washing hands before eating, drinking, or smoking.

Recommended Aftercare

All treated softwood peeled-round posts are susceptible to natural movement or shaking (vertical cracks in the wood) as the timber expands and contracts with normal weathering. However, these problems do not usually affect the post's structural integrity and will mostly disappear when colder, moister weather returns. Therefore, this is not considered to be a defect unless it is very severe.
