HIGH-TENSILE WIRE FENCING FOR
CONTROL OF CATTLE, SHEEP, HORSES,
HOGS, DEER, DOGS, COYOTES & RACCOONS
This fence is constructed with 10 strands of smooth, 12Vi gauge HIGH-TENSILE FENCE WIRE - wire so strong
(200,000 psi minimum ultimate tensile strength) and so durable (Type 111 gzivanized) it is doing much to revolutionize
farm and range fencing.
SECURITY WITH ECONOMY - Although new in this country, high-tensile wire fencing has been performing well on the vast
ranches of Australia and New Zealand for 30 years. HIGH -TENSILE FENCE WIRE is twice as strong as barbed wire,
easier to handle and safer for livestock. A ten-wire high-tensile fence costs about the same as a five-strand barbed-wire
fence and 30% less than a woven-wire of equal height; but it lasts longer and looks neater with less maintenance than
either of them.
ALL-PURPOSE VERSATILITY - High-tensile fencing uses the higher strength of the wire, so that - once up and stretched to
250 pounds minimum tension - each strand of High-Tensile wire withstands over 1,000 pounds of livestock pressure or
low- temperature contraction without losing its elasticity. Tension is maintained by seasonal adjustment of permanent in
line wire strainers. Sheep do not like the wire's stiffness, and neither do horses; and cattle that have charged high-tensile
fences have bounced back with no damage to their hides but no wish to try again.
ELECTRIC FENCES - High-Tensile Wire Fence also lends itself to electric fences, and various designs have been erected
which turn away deer, dogs, coyotes and raccoons - even bears.
