Chain Link Fence Accessories: Essential Fittings for Every Project
Comprehensive Guide to Chain Link Fence Accessories and Fittings
Chain link fence accessories and fittings are essential for securing and enhancing the functionality of your chain link fencing system. These components are de-signed to attach the chain-link fabric, framework, and various wires (barbed, tension, tie, and stirrup) to the fence posts. Our range includes everything from funda-mental fence parts like brace bands and tension bars to specialized components like post caps and barbed wire arms. Below, you'll find a detailed overview of each key accessory:
Available Types
Fence Post Fittings
- Chain Link Fence Posts: At Hitech, we manufacture chain link fence posts that adhere to ASTM and BS standards. Our ASTM-compliant posts come in two grades:

- Grade B: Includes higher levels of 0.3% carbon and 1.2% manganese
Available in outer diameters from 0.840 inches to 8.6 inches with SCH 40 Grade, these posts are designed for high stress. Our BS standard posts come in three types: Type L2, Medium series, and Heavy series, with diameters up to 6 inches, ensuring reliability for diverse applications.
Line Post
- ASTM Standard: 60mm outer diameter.
- BS Standard: 60mm outer diameter.
Terminal Post
- ASTM Standard: 73mm outer diameter.
- BS Standard: 76mm outer diameter.
- Brace Post & Top Rail:

- BS Standard: 42mm outer diameter.
Essential Fittings and Accessories
- Barbed Wire Arms / Extension Arms: Positioned at the top of chain-link fencing, these arms secure the top rail and facilitate the installation of barbed wire strands. Made from high-quality galvanized pressed steel, they offer excellent corrosion and rust resistance. Specifications:
- Tension & Brace Bands: Used to attach the chain link fabric to line posts, end posts, and terminal posts. They also fasten the fabric onto gate frames, ensuring a tight, secure fit.
- End Rail & Brace Rail Clamp: These clamps are essential for installing middle braces and attaching two horizontal fencing rails. The fence posts are centered within the line rail clamp, providing structural integrity.
- Post Caps: Installed on top of posts, post caps protect against snow, rain, and other corrosive elements, extending the life of your fence system.
- Brace Cup: Also known as end rail cups, these components connect brace bands to top rails, middle rails, and bottom rails at each end, gate, and corner post.
- Tension Bars: Galvanized steel tension bars are crucial for attaching chain-link fabric to posts using brace bands and cups, aiding in stretching the fabric properly.
- Tension / Stretcher Steel Bar: Made of high-quality, rust-resistant steel, these bars are used to secure chain-link fabric to terminal posts, providing added stability.
- Truss Rod: Utilized with tighteners for installing braces and trusses on fences and gates. Truss rods feature a 10mm diameter mild steel construction, threaded at one end to attach the tightener, with the other end bendable to form a hook.
- Turn Buckle: This device adjusts the length or tension of cables, ropes, and tie rods. It allows for tension adjustments by rotating an eye bolt without twisting the attached truss rod or cables.
- Tie Wire: Made of galvanized steel or PVC, tie wire is used to apply tension and secure the fabric along the bottom of the fence.
- Sleeve: Facilitates easy installation of brace rails. The sleeve accommodates the brace pipe, allowing for the seamless attachment of the fencing system.
- Bolts and Nuts: We offer various bolts, including carriage and hex bolts, to suit different installation needs.
- Concertina Wire Coil: Specifications: CBT-65, 2.5mm diameter galvanized core wire with a stainless steel 600mm coil diameter.
- Barbed Wire: Typically involves longitudinal wires twisted together to form a cable with barbs wound around one or both wires at specific intervals. Available in various types (single or double cable, round, half-round) and gauges, with barbs spaced 4 to 5 inches apart. Double-twisted cables provide greater strength and flexibility.
