All About High Tensile Fencing

Electrified high tensile fencing is an excellent choice for a permanent perimeter fence.

A high tensile fence system requires many unique components. While not right for every type of animal or enclosure, a high tensile fence is affordable, attractive, easy to maintain and long lasting — from 25-50 years.

How It Works

ELECTRIFYING A HIGH TENSILE FENCE

Any insulated wire on your fence can easily be electrified, making the fence a psychological barrier as well as a physical one. Be sure one wire is positioned at the animal’s nose height, causing it to back up if it touches the fence wire.

WIRE SPACING

High tensile wire comes in 170,000 and 200,000 pounds per square inch, or psi ratings. We recommend 200,000 psi wire for its superior breaking strength and resistance to elongation and sagging.

The number of wires and their spacing will vary, depending on the animal you are containing. Using a tape measure or pre-marked spacer, mark your desired wire spacing on fence posts with a lumber crayon or marker.
