Safe-Fence Polytape
Why
choose Electric Safe-Fence Polytape from Midwest Source?
In our poly-fence selection the most significant issue was
longevity.
- The polymers
used in Electric Safe-Fence monofilament are the highest quality
high density polyethylene resins and are specifically formulated
for radical temperature conditions
- The best ultra
violet inhibitors are added to significantly reduce deterioration
from the sun even in desert areas
The degeneration
that occurs with other metals comes in the form of rust, corrosion
or oxidization, all of which reduces electrical flow. As most metal
materials suffer a degenerating reaction when exposed to the elements
it was clear that stainless steel was the only
choice to achieve an acceptable life expectancy. The downside of
stainless is that it has lessor conductive value than aluminum or
copper, however that value remains constant over a long period of
time where the others decline radically. Less conductivity is easily
overcome with larger wire and the right sized fencer.
- Safe-Fence
wide polytape contains 33 strands of 20 thousandths diameter monofilament
- Safe-Fence
Electric System contains 15 strands of 12 thousandths diameter
- 304 stainless steel wire
The strength
of the wire is also an important factor. We must keep in
mind that it is not a matter of if the horse hits the fence, but
when the horse hits the fence. When copper wire is forced it elongates
and becomes smaller thereby reducing electrical flow. On the other
hand aluminum is weak and not flexible and breaks very easily. Safe-Fence
webbing has the proper balance of size and number of stainless steel
wires to offer the strength and conductivity for what we believe
to be the ideal horse fence.
The material
composition of Safe-Fence webbing offers strength comparable
or better than traditional fence materials, its extreme
flexibility is enough to withstand day to day activities,
but it will tear in cases of extreme impact and not cut the animal.
Safe-Fence Polytape Miscellaneous Hardware
Safe-Tee-Sleeves
Attractive, functional, affordable, and easy to install. Safe-Tee-Sleeves
fit over all metal T-posts and wood 4x4 posts to provide the "white
rail" look for a fraction of the cost of vinyl.
- 2"
x 2" Metal T-Post Sleeve, 5' long, includes cap.
Fits over all metal T-posts. Insulators and webbing sold separately.
- Wood
Post Sleeve
Includes cap, 5' long, fits nominal 4 x 4 wood posts. Use for
end, gate and corner posts to complete to "white rail"
look provided by Safe-Tee-Sleeves.
Tensioners
Safe-Fence Tensioners are the cornerstone of the Safe-Fence Hardware
System. Of solid stainless steel construction, Safe-Fence Tensioners
hold your fence firmly, yet in instances of violent impact they
are designed to protect your horse.
End Tensioner
Begin and end each strand with a R-40 at gate posts or buildings.
Holds webbing tight and allows easy retightening.
Corner
Tensioner
Use the R-50 at all corners or any up and down hill direction change
greater than 10 degrees. Also used at tape gates.
Tee Tensioner
The R-55 has three tensioners. Use for cross fence junctions.
Splicer
A stainless steel spring buckle similar to the tensioner. Used to
join rolls of webbing or repair torn webbing in minutes.
Wood/Vinyl
Insulator
A polyethylene insulator for wood or plastic line posts. The lock
face holds webbing tight. Use S-16 or W-16 stainless steel screws.
T-Post
Insulator
Used on steel T-posts. When using T-posts for line posts, the corners
and gate posts should be wood to accept a tensioner.
Round
Rod Insulator
To be used on fiberglass or steel round rod line posts up to 5/8".
Great for temporary pasture separations.
T-Post
Cap
A perfect cap for the top of T-posts. Prevents horses from being
impaled on the top of T-posts. Holds tape or wire.
Wire
Connector
Bolts to the ring hook for a positive, easy to remove connection.
Connects fence charger to tensioner, strand to strand, and burial
wire under gates. Use R-28 high voltage wire.
Contact
Clamp
Used to connect the fence charger to the webbing anywhere in the
fence line when a tensioner is inaccessible. Use R-28 wire.
High
Voltage Wire
Double insulated wire prevents voltage leaks which can steal power
from your fence line.
Ground
Rod Kit
Improper grounding is the cause of 90% of the problems experienced
with electric fence. This kit supplies all the components of a complete
ground system suitable for most soil conditions.
Ground Rod Kit
Contains 3 - 6 foot galvanized ground rods, 3 brass clamps, 48 feet
of 12 gauge galvanized wire and detailed installation instructions.
Gate
Handle - Gate Kit
The best electric gate handle made. Practically unbreakable. Includes
a tensioner connector to attach wide polytape. Replaceable spring.
Gate kit includes handle, 2 tensioners and 20' of webbing
Five
Light Fence Tester
For standard or low impedance fencers producing 4500-5500 volts.
Lights are calibrated to illuminate from 625 to 5500 volts.
Lightning
Diverter
Helps protect fencer from damage by lightning strikes by diverting
lightning surges into the ground. Achieve maximum protection when
used in conjunction with the Storm Guard.
