I need to find out where I can buy the clamps for joining stock panels ( hog panels ect) together.
Stock panel clamps
Have you tried Tractor Supply?
Try either Tractor Supply or the Farmer's Coop in Savannah, TN...they should have them.
What are stock panel clamps? I've been using zip-ties all these years. Is there something out there better? Are they easily removed? I use the panels a lot for tempoary enclosures.
jylgaskin....try this link to see an example of a stock panel clamp.

The main reason to use them is sturdiness and also safety...if the animal rubs against them they are basically smooth and won't jab them...I would venture to say they are probably much stronger than zip-ties too.
Stock panel clamps . One goes across both sides to each end of the two panels. Held together by a bolt and nut in the center of each clamp. Makes for a strong neat looking fenceline. If I cant find them Ill have to go with stainless steel wire to tie them together. Need to get it done as soon as possible so I can bring my sheep from AZ. They are going to LOVE TN!!
Palomina...scroll up...I replied as to where you can get them in Savannah, TN.
Thanks much for the link!! You were typing as I was and you beat me on the post. Thats what the clamps look like but much smaller for cattle/hog panels. They also used to sell gate hardware so you could make gates using the panels.
The link was just to show what they looked like...you should be able to get them at the Co-op or the Tractor Supply in Savannah, TN...they have most of that stuff in stock.
We have used cattle/Hog combo panels for a long time and have never seen or heard of clamps for them.
They are either stapled to wooden posts or wired to steel T-Posts
(Assuming you mean the 16 ft long welded wire cattle panels ☺)
Lots of uses for these.
All are 16 ft long but come in 3 types
Hog panel - the shortest
Cattle panel -or- the Hog/Cattle combo are tallest

I like to bend them into a 6 ft wide arch for trellises to grow flowering vine or vine veggies on.
Ooooooooooooooo I like that trellis, thanks for sharing the pic !!!
