HIGH TENSILE GALVANIZED HT WIRE 1.6MM SPECIFICATIONS AND DETAILS

Overview

Fence wire, supported by tension, is stretched between reinforced posts located at ends, corners and at intervals in between long stretches to form an enclosure or exclosure. You will use smaller posts in between to ensure fence wires are kept spaced and upright.

There are several types of fence wires you can use, depending on the purpose of the fence and the animal being controlled. For a permanent perimeter fence, steel or aluminum wire can be used as your fence wire. If desired, you can electrify fence wire with the use of a fence charger.

Fence wire conducts the electric charge from the fence charger around the length of the fence. There are many wire types available to choose from. Your selection, as well as number of wires and spacing, will depend on the type of fence, the type of animal you are containing and how long the fence will stay in place.

This particular HT wire is double galvanized. It is coated with Zinc to make it rust resistant. Ideal as a “weaving” wire, it is shiny, versatile, and available in a variety of gauges. It can be used for fencing purposes, strengthening an already existing fence or for electric fencing purposes as it is made from high carbon steel.
