For an electric fence to be fully effective the wires must run in parallel and not touch the posts. The type of insulator you choose should be decided based on the material of the fence, the kind of posts being used and where it will be located on the fence. We offer a huge range of different types of electric fence insulators from screw in, bolt on, stand-off and many more.
The most popular types of fence insulators are:
Ring insulators
Ring insulators are cheap and easy to use, they are compatible with wire, polywire or thinner tapes. They come in several variations including screw on, bolt on and offset.
Tape insulators
As the name suggests, tape insulators have a wider design are are intended for use with electric fence tapes.
Pigtail insulators
