Gallagher North America G79504 in Line Wire Strainer 25 Pack

Product Description

The GALLAGHER NORTH AMERICA G79504 is an in-line wire strainer engineered for fence installation and tensioning applications. The frame is constructed from galvanized steel with a ribbed profile for rust resistance and long-term durability. A tapered die-cast aluminum spool seats inside the frame and is designed for straightforward wire alignment at the start of installation. The spool features two extra teeth compared to standard designs, reducing the number of clip turns required to advance to the next tooth and providing more controlled wire tightening. A spring-loaded locking clip secures the wire under tension once set.

This strainer is suited for agricultural and perimeter fencing work where tensioning high-tensile wire, barbed wire, or woven wire is required. The spool hub is built with increased thickness to handle wire up to 0.15748 inches (4 mm) in gauge without deforming under load. Wire can be threaded directly through the strainer body rather than requiring an extra knot, saving time during installation. Fence contractors, agricultural equipment installers, and farm maintenance crews are the primary users of this strainer.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by fence contractors or agricultural maintenance personnel.

Standard fencing hand tools including pliers and wire cutters are sufficient for installation. Follow applicable local agricultural fencing standards and any relevant site-specific safety requirements when working with tensioned wire.
