Insulator short-outs are the quiet killer on an electric fence — that snapping sound down the line is your energizer bleeding power to the post, and it gets worse the wetter it gets. The Joule Shield range was built to stop it, and Strainrite has had it independently tested against standard insulators to prove it.
The twin shield design withstands 100% more voltage in wet conditions than a standard insulator — approximately 20,000V against 10,000V wet insulation capacity in Strainrite's testing, well clear of typical energizer output. Thicker walls and structural web bracing add strength where standard insulators crack and fail, rounded surfaces shed water faster instead of holding it against the post, and the long-life UV-stabilised plastic is designed and made in New Zealand with a 12-year guarantee.
Supplied as a sack of 1000 — the quantity for fencing contractors and full-farm installs.
Features
Twin Shield Design: Joule Shield twin shield flange reduces power loss and prevents short-outs — withstands 100% more voltage in wet conditions than standard insulators.
Independently Tested: Joule Shield wood post insulators have been independently tested against standard insulators for electrical retention.
Reinforced Web Back Bracing: Structural bracing that significantly reduces failure rates.
Thicker Insulator Walls: More material where standard insulators fail.
Heavy Duty Claws: Built to cope with maximum wire loads on wood posts.
Rounded Water-Shedding Surfaces: Sheds water faster rather than trapping it against the post.
Long-Life UV-Stabilised Plastic: Specified for extended outdoor service, backed by a 12-year guarantee.
Holeshot Compatible: Works with the Strainrite Holeshot Staple Guide on Stockade ST400 / ST400i staple guns for powered installation.
