A Tension Band Pressed Steel, 2-3/8" Regular, is a component commonly used in chain-link fence installations. This tension band is made from pressed steel and is designed to secure the chain-link fabric to the terminal post in the fencing system.
The term "2-3/8" Regular" refers to the size of the tension band, indicating that it is suitable for posts with an outer diameter of 2-3/8 inches. Terminal posts, such as corner or end posts in a chain-link fence, typically have this diameter.
The tension band plays a crucial role in maintaining the stability and tension of the chain-link fabric. It is secured around the terminal post and holds the tension bar, which is a horizontal bar running through the end of the chain-link fabric. This assembly helps keep the chain-link fence taut and prevents sagging or leaning.
