Description
Description
Drive-In Post Spike (Quick-Fit, Oxide Red) provides a fast, no-dig way to install timber fence and gate posts in firm ground. The heavy-duty steel spike is driven into the soil to form a secure foundation, while the quick-fit clamping mechanism locks the post above ground with minimal tools for a rigid, twist-resistant hold. The durable oxide red coating offers outdoor corrosion resistance and a clean, professional finish.
Key Features & Benefits
- No-Dig Installation: Drive straight into firm ground—ideal where excavation would disturb paving, roots or services.
- Quick-Fit Clamp: Rapid tightening for a secure, twist-resistant connection with minimal tools.
- Above-Ground Protection: Lifts end grain clear of standing water to help reduce rot risk.
- Durable Finish: Oxide red coating for corrosion resistance and tidy appearance.
- Fast, Accurate Setup: Use a drive-in tool for rapid alignment and consistent results.
Available Sizes
| To Suit Post Size (mm) | To Suit Post Size (inch) |
|---|---|

| 100 × 100 | 4 × 4 |
Product & Technical Details
- Type: Drive-in post spike (quick-fit clamp)
- Material: Heavy-gauge steel
- Finish: Oxide red coating
- Fixing Method: Drive spike into ground; tighten quick-fit clamp to secure post

Instructions for Use
- Mark the post line. Place the spike square to the surface.

Limitations & Precautions
- For firm ground only; in soft/peaty soils or where high uplift/lateral loads exist, consider concrete-in or bolt-down solutions.

- Cut post ends square and treat end grain with preservative before clamping.
A rapid, no-dig fixing that speeds up fence and frame installs—drive in, clamp tight and keep the post end above ground for a long-lasting, professional result in an oxide red finish.
