Abstract
The electric fence insulator of linear polyethylene plastic includes a body having a rear portion thereon for attaching the body to a fence post. Forwardly of the body is a clip unit having an upper latch mechanism. More specifically, the clip unit includes a first panel integrally attached to the body and a second panel resiliently connected at its lower end to the lower end of the first panel through the agency of a bight portion. The latch mechanism includes an upwardly directed keeper portion having an angled edge thereon, the angled edges being vertically overlapped with respect to each other so that a latching engagement can be effected by manipulating a tab with one's fingers, the tab projecting upwardly from the hook portion. When latched, the electric fence insulator securely holds a braided tape-type conductor, yet permitting the release of the conductor when the tab is again manipulated to unlatch the mechanism.
