These lengthier 2.40m pickets are ideal for exclusion fencing against feral pests, feral deer, wild dogs, and kangaroos. Because they are light-duty (1.58 kg/m), they are easy to transport and drive over long fence lines, yet provide the necessary height clearance to prevent animals leaping the fence. ### Are 2.40m light-duty pickets suitable for hard clay or rocky soil? While they can be driven into standard agricultural soil, extremely rocky or hard-baked clay terrain may require pre-drilling or switching to our heavy-duty star pickets (2.04 kg/m). The light-duty version excels in sandy loam, standard agricultural soils, and damp terrains where additional length is needed to anchor deeply. ### How does the bitumen coating protect the post? Our 2400mm black bitumen Y posts are dipped in a protective bituminous solution that forms a tough, rust-inhibiting barrier. This coat protects the steel against ground moisture, acidic soil, and atmospheric moisture, significantly extending the service life of your farm fencing. ## Secure Concrete Savings on Your Next Fencing Project Do not pay retail premium prices for standard farm fencing supplies.
