My second order of these was in December because I was pleased with the previous product. As time goes forward, in less than 3 years, the insulators are breaking off the securing screw or the black protective coating (plastic I am assuming) is allowing the current to connect with the securing screw. I would not recommend this for anything than a VERY temporary situation. I am slowly replacing each of them one by one as they break. I will start taking pictures of the insulators as they break to support my one star review. I, one for one, do not have time replacing insulators that have been up for less than 2 years.

Perfect for corner and end posts. Much easier than other options. Durable.

These are the best, currently spacing them out to reinforce the existing insulators on my horse fence, from now on these will be my "go to" insulator.

These have to be the best on the market today. I used a competitor brand to supplement when I ran out of these, but they broke during installation and were complete junk. I would recommend these because they are tough. You will be making a big mistake if you use any other brand.

If you have ever had a screw in insulator break off at the base, then this is the one you have been looking for. I performed some destructive testing on my band saw, and found that the steel shank, does in fact, continue through the base, down and around to the centerline of the outer ring, strengthening the common breaking point at the base. These are the only insulators I have found that are built this way, so these are the one's for me! Enjoy!
