MB, Canada | It might be considered a bit sacrilegious to view it this way, but I figure that if you're putting up a mile of 4 wire fence using fin tubes vs claws then in insulators alone you can afford another $150-$200 per mile to put toward a bigger energizer if you're worried about shorting. Plus when the snow or flooding hits the wire, the claws break while it'll just pull the staple off the fin tube. I've never had much trouble with shorting using fin tubes but I also hand staple, only run two wires, and it's usually uncomfortably dry here so if it's rained enough that my posts are damp then there's also enough grass that the cows are happy to stay put. | |
