Wish that it is a little tighter so that the fence post does not wiggle as much after inserting and putting in down in the ground with cement. Thanks

It came a bit crushed and I had to bend it a lot to get it to fit on the post. Once I got it on the post it worked as expected.

Post Protector 4x4x30
Came little distorted, but we were able to fit it on 4x4 P.T. post and install all in the ground.
It's only few days in the ground, but looks like should last for a long time and mainly, we should be able to replace/repair pressure treated post in the future without digging.

Used to create removable posts
I used this to create a sleeve inside a poured concrete pad, so I could remove 4x4 fence posts that I don't use all year. I put the posts the sleeve, poured 24" deep concrete around it, then let it dry. Now I can remove the posts at end of gardening season by sliding them out. Works great for this purpose.

For 18 years, Post Protector has provided simple, slide-on 'barrier' protection for in-ground posts. It works in conjunction with the chemical preservative as an important additional layer of protection against soil-dwelling & atmospheric decay fungi & insect infestation. It's first important to understand decay. Many believe that moisture CAUSES decay. Moisture is not the cause of decay but is one of (3) conditions needed for decay to occur. The conditions: (1) Moisture, (2) Oxygen & (3) Suitable temperature. These conditions enable the soil-dwelling or atmospheric decay fungi, as well as termites & other subterranean insects, to feed on the wood fiber. So the Decay/Degradation of ground-contact wood is not CAUSED by moisture but by the action of wood destroying organisms feeding on the wood. The 'chemical preservatives' protection strategy is to 'poison' the wood fiber, rendering it an unsuitable food source for the wood destroying organisms. The downside to that approach is that all chemical preservatives eventually lose resistance to decay and insect infestation. Post Protector becomes the perfect complement to the pressure treated (or cedar) post by simply providing a physical "barrier" isolating the post so the wood-destroying organisms have NO access to the post.
