Steel Star Pickets Pack Of 5

Star pickets

Advanced Group's Star pickets (posts) are mostly used in making temporary fences in conjunction with our barrier mesh. On-line we only sell these in packs of 5.

In cross-section they form a three-pointed star, about 10 cm in diameter. One end is pointed Solution the steel post can be more easily hammered into the ground, and the other end is flat to suit the hammer. Holes are pre-drilled along the length of the post to allow wires to be attached for fixing the barrier mesh to the picket.

Star pickets (posts) are typically dipped in tar to prevent rust.

In Australia, we call these posts "star pickets". To hammer them into the ground use a star picket driver which is a section of steel pipe, closed at one end, which is put over the picket like a sleeve. This is far more convenient than swinging a hammer. You can purchase these ready-made, weighted and with handles, at any store selling rural supplies.

In the US, there is a similar post called a 'T' Post.
