At The Star Guys, we specialise in supplying high-performance steel fencing components straight from the shipping container to your site. By avoiding the overheads of traditional retail yards, we deliver trade-level pricing directly to Australian fencing contractors, farmers, and civil works buyers. The 0.90m (900mm) medium galvanised star picket is the workhorse of erosion control, tree guard construction, low-height boundary fencing, and temporary worksites. While local suppliers like Westside Fencing offer quality gear, buying your steel posts in bulk from The Star Guys ensures you keep your project margin high without sacrificing steel thickness or coat quality. ## Why Aussie Contractors are Switching to The Star Guys Fencing contractors and civil buyers across Australia are looking for ways to trim material costs without risking structural failure. Our medium-duty galvanisation Y-posts provide an identical level of structural integrity to leading retail brands. Unlike light-duty imports that twist or bend in hard ground, our 0.90m star droppers feature a true 1.86 kg/m weight rating. This ensures they have the driveability required for tough Australian soils, from dry rural clay to rocky coastal terrain. Furthermore, our hot-dip galvanised finish provides lasting protection against rust and corrosion, outperforming basic painted or bitumen-coated alternatives in harsh, damp environments. ## Technical Specs: 900mm Galvanised Star Pickets A reliable star dropper is only as good as its specifications. Here is how our 0.90m medium galvanised droppers measure up: - **Total Length:** 900mm (0.90m) — perfect for low silt fencing, safety barriers, and tree guards. - **Weight Profile:** 1.86 kg per metre, offering superior bending resistance under load. - **Corrosion Protection:** Hot-dip galvanised to Australian standards to prevent premature oxidisation. - **Pre-Drilled Holes:** Standard spacing along the flange for rapid attachment of fencing wire, barbed wire, or geotextile fabrics. - **Pointed Tip:** Precision pointed for clean, straight driving with manual post drivers or mechanical rammers. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What makes this a viable Westside Fencing alternative Star Dropper 0.90m Medium Galvanised (1.86 kg/m)?
