4" Galvanized Steel Tension Band [14 Gauge] For Chain Link Fences

Essential for making chain link fences, galvanized steel tension bands are attached to terminal posts (end posts, gate posts, corner posts, etc.) and used in combination with tension bars (sold separately) to attach protective fabric. Three tension bands are required for each terminal post. To attach, slide the bands over and down an installed post. Space the bands apart evenly and secure by sliding carriage bolts (sold separately) through the tangs of each band.

The chain link fence tension bar is slid vertically through all three tension bands as well as through the ends of the chain link fabric. This not only attaches but tightens the fabric to make your chain link fence panels secure. These rust-resistant bands may also be used for gate frames; they are made using galvanized steel for rust resistance and boosted longevity.

Details

How the part fits? A 4” tension band is designed to fit around a 4” terminal post.

Where is it installed? A 4” tension band is installed by sliding over the 4” terminal post once the post is set. Tension bands will be evenly placed on each terminal post.

How many do you need? You will need 4” tension bands for every stretch of fence. The amount of tension bands you will need per terminal post is 1 less than the height of the fence. For example, if you have a 4’ fence you will need (3) 4” Tension Bands per terminal post. There are two exceptions, if you have a 3’ or 3-1/2’ fence, you will need (3) 4” tension bands. For a full stretch of fence from terminal post to terminal post, you will need double the amount. Ex: For a stretch 4’ fence you will need (6) total 4” tension bands.
