Fencing Tools, Staples & Bars

Choose purpose-built fencing hand tools, staples and bars for rural repairs, new fence runs and ongoing property maintenance. The correct combination helps secure wire to suitable posts without damaging the wire or compromising the fence layout.

Select by wire and post material

Identify the wire type, post material, staple length, tool capacity and expected fence tension. Different jobs call for different gripping, cutting, driving and tensioning approaches; do not use a general-purpose tool outside its stated capability.

Fencing Tools, Staples & Bars FAQs

How tightly should fencing staples be driven?

Drive them securely enough to hold the wire, while allowing appropriate movement where the wire needs to expand, contract or slide. Over-driving can pinch or weaken the wire.

Are fencing pliers suitable for heavy fabrication?

Use fencing pliers for their intended wire and fastener tasks. Select dedicated cutting or fabrication tools for heavier materials and repeated workshop work.
