High Performance Tape

Product Description

This is a strong fencing tape that comes in various widths. A tough bead of plastic is woven into the edges of the tape to increase the rigidity of the tape, a good feature especially in windy areas. The 12.5mm wide cross weave tape has five stainless conductors, the 20mm wide tape has 8 & the 40mm tape has 13. Each tape has a 0.16mm steel interconnecting conductor which regularly crosses the other strands allowing the tapes to re-energise any broken strands of wire. Each reel holds 200 metres, enough tape to cross 28 fencing posts, with a single str&, in a good fencing area.

* 12.5mm, 20mm or 40mm width tape
* 200 metres reel length
* Stainless-steel conductors
* Interconnecting conductor
* Tough plastic bead edges for rigidity

Here are the Top Ten rules to make your electric fence work properly!

1 Keep your fence as free from growth as possible – Growth impairs the output of every commercial appliance & results in increased power consumption, especially with battery-driven appliances.
2 Make sure that the earthing is optimal.
3 Do not connect two conductive plastic wires by tying them – Use special conductors.
4 Fence wire/tape/rope must not be broken.
5 Use conductive material having the best possible conductivity – i.e. Low resistance.
6 Keep fence wire & earthing rod free from rust – Rust is an insulator.
7 Weather-beaten or nagged insulators are unsuitable – Causes a high loss of output.
8 Ensure connection between the energiser & wire is optimal – Use cable resistant to high voltage for underground feeds.
9 With battery-driven energisers, check battery condition regularly.
10 Ensure that each point of the fence is live using an electric fence tester.
