Poly-Stainless Steel Web Electric Fencing
'The Safest Most Effective Livestock Fence Available "
• Highly Visible • Eaqy To Install
Safety & Strength:
At 700 pound breaking strength, Safe-Fence is stronger than
wood and most wire products. The high visibility reduces the
potential for accidents and since 1982 there has not been one
single reported injury.
Appearance and Price:
Safe-Fence offers a practical alternative combining electricity,
good looks, low injury potential, easy installation and
maintenance at a price three times less than wood and not
much more than high tensile wire.
Low Maintenance:
If a person can lift 24 pounds, swing a hammer and turn a
small wrench they can install Safe-Fence on any fence post.
Considering the most severe accidents or weather, damage is
seldom more than a broken insulator or stretched webbing,
which can be easily retightened at the tensioner. If the webbing
is ever torn it is quickly repaired with the stainless steel splicer.
