Product features
Quickly and easily repair broken fence posts with our innovative Post Buddy system. Check out its unique features:
Specification:
- The Post Buddy system consists of 2 steel stakes (grade S275) with a cross sectional area to support more than 3 tonnes
- Each stake measures approx. 750mm long x 25mm wide x 5mm thick and weighs approx. 750g
- Designed to be driven deep into the underground wood of the broken post by up to 500mm (20”), Post Buddy finds a firm anchor between the wood and the existing concrete base
- Rigid enough to support the post, yet flexible enough to allow good access to the driving end
- Stamped ‘THIS SIDE FACE OUT’ and ‘MAX’ to simplify installation
- 8 preformed holes allow the Post Buddy stakes to be securely screwed to the fence post, providing a solid and lasting fix
- Powder coated in brown to blend with most garden environments
Align
Loosely attach the 1st screw to the fence post through the centre of the specially designed elongated hole at the top of each Post Buddy stake. This slotted hole allows enough movement for the screw to slide up and down, letting you align and hold the post straight, before finally fully securing your Post Buddy through its remaining 7 screw holes. (You can add wood screws to your order on the Buy Now page)
Anchor
The new improved sawtooth ribbing increases the grip so your Post Buddy stake anchors between the wood and concrete base even more firmly, making it less likely to be pulled from the ground. The ribbing now runs continuously for the bottom 250mm (10”).
Guide
The chisel tip is designed to make it easier to drive your Post Buddy into the ground up to its maximum depth of half a metre. It will guide the fence post repair stake into the ground between the post and the concrete base.
