Gallagher North America G64219 Lightweight Pigtail Post 28in

Product Description

The GALLAGHER NORTH AMERICA G64219 is a lightweight pigtail fence post designed for electric fence installations in agricultural and perimeter fencing applications. Built from strong spring steel with a robot-welded 70mm loop, the post measures 28 inches in length and features a long pointed foot for quick, tool-free insertion into the ground. The UV-stabilized plastic insulator is coated in ultra white with a bright orange top, making posts easy to spot during installation and routine inspection. The sealed plastic insulation end resists moisture intrusion and weathering for reliable long-term field performance.

This pigtail post suits temporary and semi-permanent electric fence setups common in rotational grazing systems, paddock subdivision, and livestock management. The spring steel construction allows the post to flex on impact and return to position, reducing breakage in high-traffic areas. Posts are sold in a package quantity of 50, making them practical for fence contractors and farm operations covering larger perimeters. Installation requires no tools beyond hand pressure on the pointed foot.

Installation Notes

Pigtail posts are typically installed by farm operators and fencing contractors without specialized tools. Press the pointed foot firmly into the ground using hand or foot pressure, ensuring the post stands plumb before threading fence wire through the loop. Inspect ground conditions before installation, as rocky or extremely hard soils may require a pilot hole. Always de-energize the fence circuit before adjusting or relocating posts on an active electric fence line.
