Wire Joiners and Tensioners for All Types of Fencing and Trellising Wire

Our range of wire joiners and wire tensioners are trusted worldwide by farmers, growers, and contractors for fast, tool-free installation and reliable performance across fencing, and trellising applications.

Since 1989, our innovative “grip and pull” technology has revolutionized how wire is joined and tensioned, replacing traditional wire crimps, turnbuckles, and fencing wire strainers with a smarter, easier alternative. Whether you’re tensioning high tensile fencing wire, splicing a fruit trellis, or securing overhead structures our wire joiners make it easy. Our joiners are compatible with solid wire, stock fence, high tensile and mild steel barbed wire and wire rope.

With the Gripple Torq Tensioning Tool, you can apply precise, repeatable tension in seconds, without over-tightening or relying on specialist skills. Our systems are built to last, featuring corrosion resistant components which are tested to verified working loads for peace of mind in the toughest outdoor conditions.

From Californian ranches to Champagne vineyards, our products have proven themselves across decades of global use. And with full technical support and a wide range of options, including joiners for barbed wire, termination fixings, catenary wire, and high-load bracing we have the right solution for every job.
