Smooth wire high tensile fencing is the strongest, longest lasting
and most adaptable fencing available today. Typically multi strand high
tensile fencing is insulated so it can be electrified. It is usually built
using pressure treated wooden posts. The most common general livestock
fence is a insulated four wire high tensile fence. It is used for dairy
and beef cattle pasture with low stocking levels. Five wire fence is used
for difficult to control livestock such as sheep or horses. Six wire high
tensile is used for a higher stocking levels such as cattle feed yard.
Six wire horse fence features two or three high tensile wires that are
coated for added visibility and safety. Feedlot fencing for the highest
stocking levels of cattle usually consist of ten wires with several wires
insulated, although the feedlot fence will hold cattle without an electrical
charge.
The complete material costs of these high tensile livestock fences generally
runs about ten cents per foot, per wire.
All hardware components used in high tensile fencing are Class III galvanized.
They are coated with 2 1/2 times the zinc of traditional fence materials.
This gives the components an estimated 30 year shiny life. In addition
to the fence components, a complete line of fence construction tools is
available. K Fence high tensile fencing is suitable for traditional
farm fence applications or for exotic animal fencing (elk or red-tailed
deer), there is an 8' high tensile woven wire.
Pressure treated wooden posts are CCA treated to .4 lb. cu. ft. These high
quality posts have an expected life to 20 to 25 years. They are available
in 4, 5 and 6 inch diameter and 8, 10 and 12 foot lengths. Fiberglass posts
are non conductive and are ideal for portable electric fencing and are
available in lengths from 4 to 8 feet and diameters from 3/8Ó to
7/8Ó.
