Posts, Poles, Perfect Round Poles, Split Poles & rural fencing products

Peeled posts (or poles) are available in several different lengths and diameters. As poles are simply young trees with the bark peeled off them (hence the term "peeled"), the diameters are not of a specific size. Instead, we refer to the diameters by way of a size range. The nominated size range always applies to the small end diameter (or S.E.D) of the pole, or in other words, the minimum diameter that the pole will be. For example: A pole that has a nominated diameter of 100-125mm, will measure between 100mm and 125mm diameter at its smallest end. (Or between 4 and 5 inches in the imperial measure).

All poles at Australian Treated Pine are treated to a minimum treatment level of H4, which is suitable for most in ground applications. Typical applications for H4 treated poles are: Rural fencing, park post and rail sets, horse ménages, vineyards, shed construction, power poles, temporary power poles, and guide posts. If you have and application that may be an intermittent damp area, or even a jetty or marine application, please discuss further treatment levels with our sales staff.

Perfectly rounded poles (other wise referred to as lathed posts) are also available. As their name suggests, they are perfectly cylindrical, or consistent in diameter from one end to the other. Perfect round poles are also treated to H4 for in ground use. Perfect round poles are generally used in aesthetically sensitive areas, where consistency and appearance matter.

Split Poles as the name suggests are simply poles (peeled or perfect round) that have been split or halved longitudinally (or long ways). Split poles have a variety of uses, including garden edging, retaining walls, rural fence capping, handrail and log cabin style house cladding. Split poles are available in both peeled finish, and perfect round finishes.
Split poles are available in the following lengths: 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.4 & 3.0m lengths. Longer lengths are available, please enquire with our sales staff for prices and availability on longer lengths.
