Heavy C Metal Fence Posts
Width:1.7" (43.2 mm)
Height: 2.25" (57.1 mm)
Weight: 2.78 lbs. (4.14 kg/m)
Heavy C metal fence posts are made from 50,000 lb. minimum yield steel per ASTM A1011 and have beam load strengths greater than Sch. 40 pipe.
Available in any length, the C-Channel fence post utilizes a more effective shape of steel to create a greater bending strength perpendicular to the fence line.
The Heavy C-Post fence is the ideal choice for every wood fence project 8ft tall, residential, commercial, industrial, or high security project.
