Terminal Post for Chain Link Fencing
This galvanized steel terminal post is designed for chain link fencing installations. It serves as a corner, end or gate post in residential or light commercial boundary projects. The 6 ft overall height and 16 gauge wall thickness suit standard fence runs. Builders and property owners selecting line posts for a new enclosure will find this item matches typical specifications.
Installation Notes and Common Issues
The post is driven or set in concrete using common post-hole equipment; no specialised tools are required. Its 2 3/8 in outside diameter fits standard chain link fittings and tension bands. Installers should verify local frost-depth requirements before setting the footing. The galvanized finish resists corrosion but can be scratched during handling, exposing bare steel to moisture.
Sustained Outdoor Exposure
Under continuous weather exposure the galvanized coating provides a sacrificial barrier that slows rust formation on the underlying steel. The 16 gauge wall maintains structural rigidity through seasonal temperature cycles and wind loading on the attached fabric. Chemical exposure noted in the Proposition 65 warning indicates the presence of substances regulated in California; users in other jurisdictions should consult local regulations. Long-term performance depends on proper concrete embedment and drainage around the base.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 6 ft galvanized terminal post is installed correctly?
The post should stand 6 ft tall with a 2 3/8 in diameter and show a uniform silver galvanized finish along the full length.
What comes with the terminal post and what must I buy separately?
The box contains the 16 ga steel terminal post only; chain-link fabric, tension bands, caps and concrete for setting are purchased separately.
Which gauge and height combination should I choose for my chain-link fence?
Select the 16 ga, 6 ft version when your design calls for a standard terminal post of that gauge and height.
