Chain Strainer Tension Gauge – Suits RX2 Contractor Chain Strainer
Take the guesswork out of fence wire tensioning with the Chain Strainer Tension Gauge, purpose-built to suit the RX2 Contractor Chain Strainer. Designed for professional fencing contractors, farmers, and rural property owners, this precision accessory allows you to achieve consistent wire tension, helping improve fence performance while reducing the risk of wire damage caused by over-tensioning.
Manufactured with a rugged, compact design, the tension gauge is built to withstand demanding agricultural and commercial environments. As a result, it provides reliable, repeatable tension readings even during regular field use.
The gauge installs quickly and easily onto the RX2 Contractor Chain Strainer, allowing real-time monitoring of wire tension as you strain the fence. Consequently, operators can achieve the recommended tension every time, improving fence quality while eliminating the uncertainty of estimating tension by feel.
An easy-to-read mechanical scale provides clear tension readings, enabling accurate adjustments throughout the straining process. Furthermore, using the correct wire tension helps minimise unnecessary stress on fencing wire, strainers, and end assemblies, extending the lifespan of the entire fence.
Compact, lightweight, and simple to operate, the Chain Strainer Tension Gauge is an essential accessory for anyone seeking professional-quality fencing results.
