Stick-On Wrap Protects Posts

Stick-On Wrap Protects Posts FENCING Miscellaneous 31-3-34 You can extend the life of fence posts and pole barn poles with a rubberized, self-adhesive protective wrap that's easy to attach. "A high density poly film gives it tear and puncture resistance and a waterproof vapor barrier," says Wes Simpson, vice president of MFM Building Products Corp. The company makes similar products for low-sloped roofs and waterproof basements. "Even treated poles eventually rot out," Simpson says, noting that Post & Pole wrap comes in 3, 6, and 12-in. sizes. Some builders also put the wrap between treated wood and metal fasteners to prevent corrosion. Post & Pole can be applied at temperatures 35 degrees Fahrenheit and above. Cost is $7.50 for two 3-in. wide rolls or one 6-in. wide roll and $15 for a 12-in. wide roll. Rolls of Post & Pole are 40 mils thick and 25 ft. long. They can be purchased through dealers or direct from the company's website.
