What is the difference between a Y post and a T post?
The Y (star) section is the Australian/New Zealand standard — three flanges at 120°, driven with a rammer and clipped to the wire. The studded T post is the North American pattern with a spade plate and studs. We roll both — specify by destination market.
Which weight class should I order?
1.58 kg/m suits gardens and light stock lines; 1.86–1.90 kg/m is the common farm standard; 2.04 kg/m for hard ground, long spans and high-tension fence. Heavier classes drive straighter in stony ground.
