Coverage & How Much You Need:
Use one sleeve at each joint between top rail sections, so plan roughly one sleeve per length of rail you need to join; 6 in. of overlap per joint keeps the splice rigid.
Fit and Compatibility:
Fits 1-3/8 in. outside-diameter chain link top rail used with residential chain link fence systems. Larger 1-5/8 in. or 1-7/8 in. commercial rail requires larger sleeves sold separately.

Q: Will it rust?

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Always splice top rail over a sleeve rather than butting rails against each other; position the sleeve centered in the joint so both rail ends are equally engaged. Choose the sleeve that matches the outside diameter of your rail; forcing a 1-3/8 in. sleeve onto larger rail will not work. Keep rail joints near, but not directly over, line posts for a stronger run.
Wear gloves when handling galvanized rail and sleeves; cut rail ends and edges can be sharp.
Order the Origin Point 1-3/8 in. x 6 in. galvanized top rail sleeve for solid rail splices.
