Manufactured from carbon steel hardened and tempered with 600mm long handle for excellent leverage and a pivoting 'Durbar' steel locating foot to grip any post type whilst straining wire. Display packed. Review: Great for small fences or repairs. - This is a solidly built bit of kit. It’s all made of nice quality materials and I feel it will last a lifetime. It is very easy to use, just position the semi-circular pivoting brace on the post nice and close and then slide the wire through the jaws and begin to lever it. On a really small stock fence or for repairing a loose bit between 2 posts you can get some really good tension. It does bend the wire a little bit but nothing too drastic. I bought this tool thinking I could do all my fencing with it, while it’s great and I do still recommend it - it won’t be much use for putting up a stock fence the right way. The correct method is to have all the tension of your wire on your first, last and corner posts (strainer posts) - the posts in between just act as supports and they shouldn’t be under any tension. The strainer posts should have struts to support them so that they can take all the tension of the wire without collapsing. When I was doing my fence, although it was only 30m or so, I still put in corner posts, first and last posts with struts. I then tried to strain the wire from one of the fence to the other and quickly realised that it wasn’t going to work with this tool; I couldn’t get it tight enough because once I ran out of leverage on the tensioner bar I couldn’t tension any further. So instead I used the “wrong” method of tensioning it off each post working my way through each one. Since it was a fairly small fence that is just to keep dogs and cats in it won’t get much use so it should still last. But anyone looking to fence a proper stock fence, I’d advise getting a monkey strainer instead. Although for repairs and really quick jobs these tensioner bars are amazing, way easier and quicker to use than monkey strainers and they are used by the pros Review: Easy 2 use - Brilliant tool 2 use. Even for a girl on her own. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 3 years.

Even for a girl on her own. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick and easy *by S***E on 16 January 2022* Quick and easy to use, but care required to position the bar on the post to ensure solid purchase otherwise it can slip or twist during tension. Great if working on own as you can use your body to hold in place whilst fixing with staples. Will have to wait and see how long it lasts, tough ask as the last wire tensioning bar was in the family for over a 100 years (missing wedge when we needed it). ## Frequently Bought Together - Draper Fence Wire Tensioning Tool - DAKCOS 17 Pieces Impact Socket Adapter Set, Includes Reducer, Universal Joint Socket Set, Grade Drill power Socket Adapter Set,1/4" 3/8" 1/2" Drive - Draper 63513 Hand File 13 Piece Set in 3/4 Drawer Eva Insert Tray, Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/50190265-expert-760mm-fence-wire-tensioning-tool-gardening-fencing-hand-tool](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/50190265-expert-760mm-fence-wire-tensioning-tool-gardening-fencing-hand-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-08-27*
