Product Description
Puljak® Type B Chain Link Fence Puller — 30" or 48" Rod
- Fabric stretcher head — Studs hook directly into chain-link mesh for fast, even pulls.
- One-person operation — Smooth pump action with a safe trigger release.
- Rod options — 30" for most residential runs; 48" for tall or heavy fabric.
- Pro-grade build — Rugged workhead; field-proven durability.
The Type B is the Puljak most installers reach for to tension chain-link fabric quickly and consistently. Hook the stretcher studs into the mesh, pump to tension, and clamp off at the terminal—it’s that simple. For tight sites or rebar/wire pulls on the same job, pair with the Reversed Puljak Type A and keep tension bars and tension bands on hand for tie-offs.
Why Choose This
- Purpose-built for fabric — Direct mesh engagement means fewer slip points and faster cycles.
- Cleaner finishes — Even pulls help panels line up square before tying.
- Scales to job size — Swap rod length to match fence height and leverage needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the Type B do that Type A doesn’t?
- Type B hooks directly into the mesh to stretch fabric; Type A hooks to a tension bar (or rebar/wire) and works great for alignment or in constrained spaces.
- Can I use one tool for all heights?
- Yes; choose 30" or 48" rods to match reach/leverage needs.
- Is it safe to release under load?
- Yes—use the trigger cam to bleed off tension in a controlled manner.
