Benefits
- Made of UV stabilized polycarbonate, which is less likely to break than polypropylene handles.
- Internal compression springs instead of expansion springs (prone to stretching).
- All metal parts are stainless steel--won't rust.
- Larger hand grips for a safer hold.
- Choice of 2 colors. Black is perhaps the most durable. White is most visible against grass.
Installation
- Turn off the energizer.
- Attach SafeHandle to conductor by inserting it into the eyelet end of handle. Then, either tie a knot in the conductor or use a specific connector (sold separately) to attach conductor to handle.
- Place the hook end into activator (either a wood-post or steel-post activator, sold separately).
- Make the electrical connection to the activator with an insulated wire (sold separately).

I like that these handles have longer hooks so that they stay hooked in.

Sturdy product. Would prefer a brighter color for better visibility.

These are the best handles for electric fence that I have found. Everything I find at the local stores are cheaply made. Break easy and some of them rust on the hooks. We have several cross fences and I have the blacks ones on all my gates.

I have these and a few similar handles from my local store that I got for about the same price. The difference is amazing. These are heavy duty and will last many years. The ones I got at my local store are flimsy and won't last more than a few years. Mostly because the hook and loop ends are not very strong.
