Freeman FS105G125 10.5-Gauge 1-1/4ft Glue Collated Barbed Fencing

In this review the Freeman FS105G125 fencing staples are evaluated for ranchers, landscapers and property owners who need a reliable fastener for mesh and woven fencing. The bottom line is that these 10.5-gauge, 1-1/4' glue collated staples deliver strong holding power thanks to a divergent barbed tip and galvanized construction, making them a sensible choice for livestock fencing and heavy mesh applications where corrosion resistance and longevity matter. They are especially useful when paired with compatible fencing staplers that accept glue collated strips.

Key Features

• Divergent barbed tip: The barbed, divergent point grips wire and wood to reduce pullout and keep mesh secure under tension.
• Galvanized steel: Zinc coating protects the staples from rust and corrosion in outdoor environments, extending service life on fences and trellises.
• Glue collated strips: Collation makes loading into compatible fencing staplers faster and keeps staples aligned for consistent firing.
• 1,500 count box: A large quantity per box reduces the need for frequent restocking on larger jobs like ranch or vineyard installation.
• 10.5-gauge thickness: Substantial solid steel construction is suited for heavy mesh, chain link, and utility ground wire installations.
• Broad compatibility: Works with most 10.5-gauge staplers capable of firing 1-1/4' glue collated staples, making them flexible across job sites.

Who It's For

These staples are aimed at farmers, ranch hands, and contractors installing hog, cattle, horse and deer fencing, or anyone mounting heavy mesh and chain link. The combination of a barbed tip and galvanized steel makes them well suited to outdoor fencing that must withstand livestock pressure and weathering.

Those who should look elsewhere include users with staplers that do not accept glue collated strips or anyone needing a different gauge or length; the product is not compatible with some brands that require a different collation format. Also, if you want stainless steel for coastal saltwater exposure, consider a stainless option instead.
