Gallagher G79504 In Line Wire Strainer

I purchased some thorn less blackberry canes last year and knew that I would have to create trellises for them last fall in preparation for this year. I was unable to tighten the wire enough by myself so went looking on U tube. I watched a video were the grower used these fence strainers on his blackberry trellises. Our farm store only had two in stock but I purchased them anyway to see if this was what I wanted. It took me one installation to figure out how to use them and I was off and running.I needed six more strainers and Amazon had them cheaper than our farm store so ordered them and had them in three days. I have had to ratchet twice this spring and summer as the canes have gotten so heavy but it was quite simple to do. These made a frustrating task very simple for me.

These work great for putting some tension on a corner brace. For years I used solid braces. I no longer have the time nor the patience for that kind of effort. These throw an nice tension on a corner post. You can crank them up plenty tight without causing them to deform or come apart.

Great product I have not had any problems with this item.

it does what it should. just be careful what handle you get to go with it. amazon is matching the wrong one

Paid <$5 a piece here and the local TSC has same style for $6.99. I was 2 short and ran to the store. Absolutely zero differences and after 2 months in the field I am happy with the performance of these strainers.
