Why Choose These Bulk Hog Rings
Buying bulk hog rings keeps a big fence or cage job moving without trips back to the store. C shaped rings are a common pick for fencing because they close around the wires without cutting into them. A 14 gauge ring is light enough to close by hand all day, yet firm enough to keep mesh and netting tight. A pack of 3,000 covers roughly half a mile of fence at one ring per foot, so one pack goes a long way.

Uses: Hog Rings for Fencing and More
Fencing crews use hog rings to attach fence fabric to top and bottom tension wire and to hang windscreen, privacy fabric and netting. These 14 gauge hog rings also work on wire mesh, small animal cages, garden and pet fence, and other wire-to-wire jobs. For tying chain link fabric to line posts on a commercial fence, many installers use a heavier 9 or 11 gauge ring.
Choosing the Right Size
Match the ring to the wires you're joining and to your tool. A good starting point is about one ring per foot of fence, closer together in high-traffic or high-security spots and farther apart where the fence sees little stress. For a larger ring, review our #3 bulk hog rings. Before a big job, close a few test rings on scrap wire to make sure they close fully and hold tight, and add an extra pack if you're fencing a large area.
