Should of bought these earlier, way better than what came with the kit.
I have fitted two Jack The Grippers to a Wireman wire strainer and the difference was amazing. The change was as good as when sliced bread hit the market. No longer were my fingers getting tangled in the wire and the lock on and release of the grippers from the wire being strained was truly first rate and done with ease.

These things are the ducks nuts! We sold our farm and moved to a waterfront property. Installed clipex mesh fence so as not to block the view but the farm cattle dog doesn't like people walking on his beach so after repeated dog hits the fence became not so tight. Crinkled in 6 spots and job done. Plenty of places left for more crinkles. Must have taken at least 5 minutes!!!

As easy to use as advertised. I was able to retighten a wire fence following a tree falling on it with 5 minutes work. Much easier than cutting and rejoining and cheaper as well.
We purchased a Strainex Wire Strainer and we wish we purchased one a lot sooner. It makes tensioning a barb wire fence a breeze. There is no guess work either with the spring gauge to achieve the correct tension. The Strainex Wire Stainer is a great investment for any farmer, fencer etc.
The StrainX JTG kit arrived promptly and is a well thought out and easy to use piece of kit. My old strainer was slipping and was a pain to use, now using the new one ,quick ,no slip and easy to get the right tension
Absolutely top quality and a pleasure to use.
So good it keeps getting pinched and I have to buy again!!
StraineX Wire Strainer - Digital Gauge - Rabbit Ears
We received our StraineX kit in the post, could not believe how quick and effecient it was to purchase and receive. Was not sure of the kit at first glance but we tried them and boy we are very happy with them, they are easy to use, quick and efficient, so we bought some more and the purchase and delivery was the same, really great service.
Didnt think id need a strain gauge. But after the fires i lost a lot of fences. So i added the strain gauge to my existing strainers. Easy fitment. Easy to use. Very rugged. Highly recommended

Great product, it’s pricey but it is a good quality product
We bought the 900 PickeX to attach to our house paddock as we have a huge deer problem here in the snowy mountains. They are super easy to attch, wires up no problem. Very happy with the speed of delivery, the how to videos and the whole product in general.
Really happy with my purchase, wish I brought them years ago works a treat
