Details

Screw-in ring insulators go in fast with the right driver and painfully slowly without one. This tool holds the insulator square and lets you drive it home with a drill instead of twisting each one in by hand. Anyone who has insulated a long fence line knows why that matters. A mile of posts is a lot of insulators, and doing them by hand costs you knuckles, time and enthusiasm somewhere around post forty. With the tool chucked in a drill it is a couple of seconds per post and you keep moving down the line. It also keeps the insulator going in straight, which matters more than it sounds. A crooked insulator throws the wire off line and works the screw loose over a few frost cycles. If you are building or rebuilding permanent fence, buy the tool once and it pays for itself the first afternoon. Keep it in the fencing box with the insulators so it is there when you need it, because the day you leave it in the shop is the day you are three miles out with a full drill battery and nothing to put in it.
