300mm galvanised medium-grade star picket — Z275 hot-dipped, 1.86 kg/m. Industry-standard strength with long-life corrosion protection. 10-pack or pallet.
## 300mm Galvanised Star Picket — Medium Grade | The Star Guys Where "does the job properly" meets "won't rust out on me." Industry-standard medium-section steel (1.86 kg/m) wrapped in a hot-dipped Z275 galvanised finish — the smart choice wherever corrosion is a real concern. The picket we'd put on a coastal development silt fence, a beachside building site, a dairy property boundary, or any environment where black just doesn't make the cut long-term. Drives reliably into average-to-firm ground, handles side-load of tensioned wire without flexing, and comes out clean when the job's done. ### For supervisors and landscapers who've been burned by rust Watch a run of black pickets rust out inside 18 months on a coastal site and you know the frustration. Galvanised medium-grade doesn't just buy you more picket life — it means you're not resetting silt fence mid-project, not writing off stock you thought you could reuse, and the install looks professional through to sign-off. ### Medium grade + galvanised covers - Construction site silt fence in coastal/wet/sensitive environments - Permanent garden boundary fencing with wire mesh - Rural fencing in high-moisture paddocks or near troughs/irrigation - Dairy boundary and internal paddock dividers - Trellis anchoring in coastal gardens and orchards - Event/festival fencing reused season after season ### Specs - **Length:** 300 mm · **Grade:** Medium (1.86 kg/m) · **Finish:** Hot-dipped galv Z275+ - **Profile:** 3-point Y/star · **Holes:** 2 × Ø8 mm at 25 mm & 100 mm from base - **Pack:** 10-pack · sling of 500 · full pallet ### FAQ **Galv medium vs black medium for coastal?** Salt air accelerates corrosion — bitumen surface-rusts within months in salt spray. Z275 zinc actively resists it. **Reusable across projects?** Yes — zinc doesn't chip and peel like bitumen. Hire companies spec galv specifically for reuse value. **Pallet stock?** Yes — 10-packs, slings of 500, full pallets. Call for pallet-plus bulk pricing. **The Star Guys** — Australian-owned direct importers. One of our top sellers because it's the right answer for so many applications.
