🤔 Will This Fit My Existing Fence?
Great question! (We get this one a lot.)
Your existing post's Inside Diameter (I.D.) needs to measure:
- 1.77" or larger
Our swedged end measures:
- 1.75" Outside Diameter (O.D.)
If your measurements match, you're in business!
Pipe Terminology
- O.D. = Outside Diameter
- I.D. = Inside Diameter
Still not sure? Give us a call before ordering and we'll help you figure it out—no pipe engineering degree required.
