Tension bars are what connect to tension bands to hold your stretched chain link fabric in place. They make fabric easier to stretch with a come-a-long and fence stretcher bar. As their name suggests, they ensure that the fence has equal tension from top to bottom, and that the fabric stays stretched uniformly. Order tension bars that are the same height of your fence; so if your fence is 6' high, order 6' tension bars.
Tension bars are also used to mount chain link fabric to gates and fence panels. In general, 5/8" wide tension bars are used for residential chain link fences & gates, while 3/4" wide tension bars are used for commercial grade chain link fences & gates.
