Gripples and Gripple tensioning tools simplify the job of installing, repairing and maintaining wire fencing, especially useful for wire joining in agricultural stock fencing, vineyard trellising and fruit growing applications. 

Unsure whether to use Gripples or Strainrite Crimp sleeves? Here are some advantages (and disadvantages).

Speed and Simplicity: Faster to install with minimal training, ideal for those who need quick fixes or temporary fences.

Adjustability: Tension can be adjusted or wires removed, making them perfect for rotational grazing or fences that need frequent reconfiguration.

Versatility: Combines splicing and tensioning in one device, reducing the need for multiple tools or connectors. Suitable for both high-tensile and barbed wire.

No Crimping Skill Needed: Eliminates the risk of over- or under-crimping, which can weaken connections

Higher initial cost (Gripples and tensioning tool).

Slightly lower strength compared to properly crimped sleeves (wire may break inside Gripple).

Requires checking tension periodically, as rollers may slip under extreme loads
