Farm Safety

The Runner up of the Farm Safety Category of the Innovation Showcase is Fencefast with their innovation the Serca Fence Strainer!

The Serca Fence strainer is the EASIEST to use wire fence straining tool on the market today. No pinch points, no spring-back, no jamming, no stress! The SERCA Fence Strainer eliminates the frustration typically associated with conventional type strainers. Attach the chain to the strainer post, grip the wires with our spring assisted wire grabs, and simply wind the tensioning device handle until you achieve the required tension, Once the wire is tied off, simply unwind the handle and remove the grab. No pinch points, no spring-back, no jamming, no stress and safer!
