KIWI On-line Strainer Reviews

Read Kencove Farm Fence, Inc Reviews

The KIWI On-line Wire strainer is our strongest on-line strainer. This strainer is made in the USA and features a solid zinc cog and a class 3 galvanized U-shaped pin.  
It can be installed directly onto the wire strand without any cutting or crimping.   
To install the KIWI On-line Strainer, simply insert the wire material into the slot on the strainer, use a tool to apply tension and remove any slack, then lock in place with the provided U-shaped pin. You can use a ½" drive socket wrench to apply initial tension, but for best results, use the EZ Daisy Strainer Handle (TFD) or the convenient Rapid Tightener (TFDR) to apply tension from start to finish. 
This strainer is strong enough for use with high tensile wire and will work on wire up to 9ga. The cog beveled and narrower than other on-line strainers. The wire slot is approximately 3/16” wide. 
*Not for use with coated wire products like Hotcote and Kencote. For coated wire applications use coated wire tensioners.

High quality product at a great price. This model has 6 adjustment holes as compared to the gallagher model which has 8 holes. These also seem heavier and thicker than the gallagher model.

A lot of metal for a low price '1/2" ratchet tightens well, but a third hand helpful to attach the clip when going for very tight The handle would provide the extra control by using a leg or body to hold back evenly, freeing up a hand. If you are buying a bunch of these I'd get or make a handle. I really like the ability to use on existing wires without cutting. I'm building long runs, tightening with puller, and then adding these as wires loosen from age, an economical solution.

Same price and specs of the other product but this one is made in USA. So naturally I only keep this one on hand. Works every time and is easy enough to tighten or even loosen a line. They are cheaper than the ratcheting strainers and have less moving parts, so are less likely to fail. And if you lose the pen, two nails work fine.
