Hillman Fasteners 461481 Galvanized Fence Staple 2.5in 5lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461481 is a hot dipped galvanized fence staple designed for securing wire fencing to wooden posts and rails. At 2.5 inches in length, this staple provides a deep bite into treated or untreated lumber, holding fence mesh, barbed wire, and woven wire firmly in place. The hot dipped galvanizing process deposits a thick zinc coating that resists rust and corrosion in outdoor and high-moisture environments. Each box contains 5 pounds of staples, making it practical for full fence runs rather than small patch jobs. Fencing contractors, agricultural installers, and experienced DIYers are the typical end users for this product.

These fence staples are suited for residential, agricultural, and commercial fencing applications. Common install scenarios include attaching galvanized welded wire, hex wire, and field fence to wood posts along property lines, paddocks, garden enclosures, and perimeter barriers. The galvanized finish makes them appropriate for pressure-treated lumber contact, where untreated fasteners would corrode prematurely. Sold in a 5-pound box, the package quantity of 4 boxes per case supports larger-scale fencing projects.

Installation Notes

Fence staples are typically driven by a hammer or pneumatic staple driver into dry or pressure-treated wood posts. Ensure the wire fencing is pulled taut before driving staples to prevent sag. Do not overdrive staples to the point of cutting or crimping the wire, as this reduces holding strength and can damage the wire coating. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving fasteners.
