Ceramic Insulators for Electric Fence
Ceramic Insulators for Electric Fence is made of red, brown, or white porous clay. Once it’s shaped, it is fired between 2,100° to 2,300° Fahrenheit. Ceramic is less expensive to produce than porcelain. If the ceramic is glazed, as Zareba® insulators are, the glaze is only baked into the top layer.
Ceramic insulators will see a long life of use on your electric fence. While they are tough, they may break easier and may become brittle in extremely cold weather.
Ceramic Insulators can be used with fence wire, poly wire, poly rope, and 1/2″ poly tape. This should not be used with high tensile fencing. They have a diameter of 1-1/4″. These insulators are durable and dependable with superior insulating performance. Pack of 10.
