Nice heavy duty ring. Really like this product.

Holds like you nailed them in.

Excellent. East to install and use.

Poor insulation quality. About half of these conduct the pulse. Using the Premier 1 charger, so the voltage is a little higher (8kV). The plastic is thin between the conductor wire sitting in the loop and the metal screw inside the insulator, which is where the pulse arcs through burning up the insulator and eventually the plastic strands in the wire. Unfortunate, as everything else about this thing is great.

They work and are the best that I have used so far... I have replaced similar hooks and also porcelain insulators that have broken on me.
These are easy to use with a cordless drill and the installation tool, plus they last and my goats do not seem to tear them up and they also seem to stand up to weather.
Only wish I had used these to begin with.
