Unsure whether to use crimp sleeves or Gripples?

Some advantages (and disadvantages) of crimp sleeves:

Superior Strength: Achieve up to 90% of wire’s breaking strength, outperforming wire knots (60-70%) and often Gripples in high-load scenarios. Ideal for permanent, high-tension fences.

Cost-Effective: Cheaper per unit, especially figure-8 aluminum sleeves, making them economical for large fencing projects

Durability: Aluminum or grit-adhesive sleeves resist corrosion and provide a secure, permanent connection, ideal for long-term fences.

Proven for Insulators/Posts: Tests show crimp sleeves are superior for attaching wires to insulators or posts, reducing wear compared to knots

Requires a crimping tool and precise technique; improper crimping (over- or under-crimping) can lead to weak connections or wire damage.

Slower installation, especially for large projects requiring multiple crimps per sleeve. (can be overcome by using an electric Pro Crimp)

Permanent, non-adjustable connections limit flexibility for fence adjustments.

They are made to the same design but lower costs overseas mean that we can call that one the Economy model. Strainrite Wedge Clamps are made in NZ from high quality galvanized steel.

Use these boundary fence clamps in conjunction with Strainrite Boundary Fence Strainers. It is best to use two strainers, at top and bottom of the clamp. The fence is clamped between the clamp plates and then the clamps are strained together until the desired tension has been achieved. The wires are joined in the normal way and the strainers and clamps removed.
