In this episode segment from The Fence Podcast, Brian T. Frederiksen discusses the Kiwi quick end strainer with a representative from Kencove Farm Fence at Kiwi Fence School. The device is described as a unique, time-saving wire tensioning tool that works like a Chinese finger trap: the wire is fed into the spring-loaded jaws, which grip it securely and hold it in place without letting it slip back out. The speaker explains that the wire is inserted until it catches, then snapped off before the grip releases, creating a fast and reliable connection. The conversation highlights why the Kiwi quick end strainer is popular with fence contractors. According to the representative, the company sells thousands each year because it eliminates several traditional steps such as crimping and bending, making installation much quicker and easier. He also notes that they have never seen one fail in a way that allows the wire to come back out. To learn more or purchase one, listeners are directed to kencove.com, where the item is listed under code SASQ, and they are encouraged to call for spec sheets or a sample to try.

(292 words)All right. So, now we're looking at the Kiwi quick end strainer. This is kind of a unique device. So, you say it's kind of like a Chinese finger game that we used to put your finger in there and it doesn't come back out. Looks like you shove the wire in there and then it just grabs it and uh doesn't release it. So, a little little less work, a little quick. That's why they call them quicker, right? So, tell me a little bit about that one. So, for lack of a better term, this is a Chinese finger trap. There's two spring-loaded jaws in here with little nurls in it that is spring-loaded into this direction. You put your finger on the back of this, feed the wire through until you start to feel it poke through. That will grab it and you will snap your wire off before this breaks loose. We have never seen one of these fail to where the wire comes back out. It's the same principle as the other Kiwi strainers. At that point, you run your tail through here, bend it, clip it off, and you're good to go. So, this is one of your more popular ones. Yes. Yes. We sell thousands of them a year. They are a huge timesaver. There's no crimping, there's no bending, there's no nothing. So, how do you find out more about these if someone wanted to purchase one? If you would go to kco.com, that is item code SASQ. If you look it up on there, it'll have all the spec sheets. Give us a call. We'll be happy to give you something to try. There you got it. Thanks a lot, man. Appreciate it.
