240CM WARATAH GALSTAR MAXY JIO STEEL FENCE POST 302476 at a glance

The 240cm Jio Maxy Post is twice as strong and double the profile of the Jio Star post., this is a reliable intermediate post option that improves ground holding & performance.

It has the strength to resist higher impact loads while still being easier to transport and install compared to timber, concrete and pipe.

Waratah have developed the Jio MaxY post to be bigger, stronger, more ductile and with more attachment points than other posts.

The life of the post is extended with hot dipped galvanized coating (min 600g/m2) providing the best steel corrosion protection.

More Jio post holes improve wire alignment and while the oversize hole shape provides more attachment options than traditional Y posts with round holes. Their design flexibility allows them to line up with traditional Y post round holes.

Tough enough to resist fracturing under stress, yet flexible enough to allow restraightening if deformed from significant force these posts are quick and easy to install with a manual post driver.

Use with Jio wire clips for fast & secure fixing of wires and with other accessories such as ties and electrics.

Fence post spacing — a quick guideLine posts (star pickets) carry the wires between your strainer posts. As a rough starting point: crop or exclusion fence about 5 m, sheep about 4 m, cattle about 4 m on flat ground and about 3 m on hilly ground. Space them closer together for more wires, larger or pushier stock, and undulating country. Let your strainer posts do the anchoring at ends, corners, gateways and any change of direction or slope.

Drive the 240cm Waratah Galstar Maxy JIO post to 600-700mm depth using a post driver, giving approximately 155-165cm above ground. The combination of 240cm length and Maxy heavy-gauge profile makes this post suited to demanding applications: tall horse and deer fencing, exposed ridgelines, corner assemblies, and high-tension fence runs. Attach wire at the pre-formed notches. Tips: A hydraulic post driver is recommended for 240cm Maxy posts in any quantity — hand-driving this weight and length is hard work and risks uneven depth. Set your end assemblies and string line first; the extra post height makes any lean or depth variation more visible across the fence line.
