Never before has there been a way to tension manufactured netting such as horse mesh or hinge lock with such speed and ease of use.
-
Can be on or off the wire in under 15 seconds
-
Minimal bend applied to the wire
-
Little tension reduction after removing from wire
-
Only puts as much force on the wire as you apply to the strain
-
NO HAMMER NEEDED!
Now with Toggle Pre-Clamps - position the Viceman where you want it and lock it in position before you start the strain.

Brilliant product - how anything so superior and simple compared to competitors took so long to be invented is a mystery. I have used 4 other types of strainer set ups for 1263cm exclusion prefab wire over the last 2 years (including one from Wireman) but the Viceman 1.5m board is an absolute standout for ease and effectiveness. I will be getting another set to use in leapfrogging strains around corners. The the other types of boards in my collection (except the other Wireman which will be useful for simultaneous multi plain wire strains) will be junked.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a considered review Peter, greatly appreciated. Commerce asside, it's inspirational to know that we have made a job easier. Cheers, Ian
We are so very happy with the pair of Vicemen we recently recieved in super fast delivery to Gotland Sweden! We just learned to operate the clamps but it was very few minutes needed before we managed to speed up the work. We use 90cm sheep mesh and the clamps are so very easy to attach!

I purchased the side gripper for my rachet strainer set and have used it twice since 5th of June and it is fantastic, I'm spewing I didn't buy 2 of them.
I found the side gripper a lot better than the straight gripper, just my opinion though, thanks Wireman for another great product.
Once I’m completely used to it they’ll be really good

Very accurate no more over tensioning
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!!!
Should of bought these earlier, way better than what came with the kit.
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
