Tensioners:Fence tensioner

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) awarded a contract to S&S Fence Company Inc. for specialized fence installation materials on October 20, 2025. The contract, valued at $427, encompasses the procurement of 50 fence tensioners at $1.28 each and 25 steel rods for tensioners priced at $13.30 per unit. The procurement is specifically designed to supply District 3's fence and guardrail crew with specialized parts not available through standard state warehouse inventory.

The contract, classified as a NON-IT Goods procurement, covers a single performance period matching the award and completion date of October 20, 2025. The line items indicate a targeted acquisition of essential infrastructure maintenance components, with the steel rods and tensioners intended to support ongoing fence and guardrail maintenance operations for Caltrans District 3. The relatively low total contract value suggests this is a tactical, focused purchase to address specific equipment requirements for the transportation infrastructure maintenance team.
