Protective Coatings
Waratah has a range of protective coatings available to meet your durability and budget requirements. Black Varnished is the standard coating used in fencing applications. Galstar is the premium coating to last longer in both normal and corrosion pressure environments. With fence posts being an integral component of the life of a fence, the labour costs of installing all fencing material needs to be considered. Galstar posts can be handled and installed much more efficiently than timber alternatives and last longer than standard coatings available. As a result there are significant cost savings when you use Galstar posts in the longer term.
Features & Benefits
Genuine Star Posts last longer because they are made from higher grades of both carbon and manganese steel providing them with a higher tensile strength. They deliver strong support to the wire and tougher resistance to failure with more strength to work with.
Star Posts offer savings in construction time compared to timber alternatives plus they are durable, fire resistant, termite proof and are re-usable.
Unique Benefits
Waratah Star Posts are the tried and trusted Australian made product which farmers and graziers demand. All Waratah Star Posts have the Waratah guarantee of quality workmanship.
Installation
Waratah Star Posts require no pre-bored holes and are simply driven into the ground with a Star Post Driver (hand operated tubular driver). For best results run a sighter wire between your strainer assemblies and place the star post close to the wire at the spacings you require. This will help you achieve a straight fence that looks great.
