180CM WARATAH GALSTAR EXTREME STEEL FENCE POST HEAVY GAL 142645 at a glance

The original Y shaped fence post, made in Australia using Australian steel, its designed for use in most fence line designs where medium stock pressure is expected.

Galstar Extreme is commonly teamed up with the intermediate MaxY post for higher pressure applications.

Features:

The hot-dipped galvanized coating makes these posts suitable for use in medium-to-high corrosive environments.

Waratah uses a multiple stand in-line rolling process to manufacture Galstar Extreme which delivers a consistent shape and steel cross section for strength and performance.

Consistent hole spacings allow easy wire attachment and correct fence design.

Less bulky than timber, concrete and pipe, this post is easier to transport, requires no machinery to install and can be carried along the fence line by one person, saving time and money.

Drive the post into the ground using a post driver or machine, ensuring it goes in straight and to full depth for maximum holding power. For permanent fence lines, space posts 1.8 to 2.4 metres apart depending on terrain and stock type. Once driven, attach your wire with appropriate fasteners and tension it properly to prevent sagging. The heavy galvanising will protect against rust, but check the post hasn't bent on impact before securing wire. Tips: Always check the ground isn't frozen or too wet before driving — you'll bend the post or waste time if conditions aren't right. Drive these posts at a slight angle away from the fence line rather than perfectly vertical; they'll hold better under tension from stock pressure. Don't skimp on depth; shallow posts shift under pressure from cattle or wind, so get them in properly the first time.
