THE TENSIONER 36W & 36M


tensioner 36W 36N 45V 36M


The #36W for wood post and the #36M for metal post are the same tensioners
but they come with different attachments.

It is essential to use a tensioner to set and re-adjust the tension
of the electric tape: at the end posts, at the gates,
and at the corners.

Advantages of setting a tensioner as a corner insulator:
  • • Easier to adjust the tension of the tape from one corner to another.
  • • The buckle redistributes the current at each corner so that the 10 stainless-steel wires get the same voltage.
  • • The buckle #36N keeps the tape from wriggling inside the Corner Insulator and therefore prevents its deterioration.
These tensioners are not to be used with the Bi-Polar system because they would immediately short out the charger by creating a contact between the positive and the negative poles .
But in case you plan to use the Bi-Polar tape as a traditional fence with a ground rod, it would be then possible to use them.

To install a tensioner at the corners and at the gate:
  1. Make a straight line at 10 inches above ground by stretching a string between the end-posts.
  2. Install the tensionners on each end post using the straight line as a guide for the level of the fence tape.

Removing a tang from the buckle
will provide more room to hook the
gate handle

A perfectly stretched fence tape!
