T Ground Rods
This ground rod features a unique T handle, which makes it easier to grip when removing from soil.
Ground rods receive and carry the energizer's pulse from the soil back to the energizers.
Ground rods are essential for all energizers and lightning diverters.

Makes portability of the electric fencing really nice.

Makes driving and pulling the rod a breeze!

Such a simple tool made all the difference getting our fence working. Rusty rebar wouldn't work, but this ground rod got our fence working properly with no problems! Easy to install and remove, definitely worth the money for the convenience in mobility!

As long as the ground is soft these rods work like a charm but the T handle weld is too weak to handle driving into the hard ground with a hammer. Needs to be redesigned as a "cross" where the handle(s) is only used for pulling out of the ground and a flattened head spike above the handle is used to hammer into the ground. The weld broke on half of my ground rods and the T fell off.

Exactly what we were looking for at a much better price than we had gotten in the past.
