How many strands?

Index Next


HorseGuard recommends at least 2 strands in most fencing applications to provide
a safe visual and physical barrier for the horse.
In an area vulnerable to weeds,
the bottom tape should be a minimum of 22 inches off the ground.

3 Strands and more

3 strands of tape is very popular and has a more traditional appearance. 4 strands might be necessary for delicate situations, like an excitable stallion, a busy road, deer, alpaca, ect...
But remember never to set the tape too low.

Stallions
While many stallions respect a 2 strandsHorseGuard Fence, 3 strands provides an extra measure of safety.
The ideal tape height in this situation would be 28", 44" and 60".


Young Horses
One strand does not work to enclose young horses or ponies.
To be on the safe side. 3 strands fencing is better for young horses. 52", 36" and 28"


Ponies
Many ponies are persistent and will escape if the shock of your fence charger is not strong enough.
3 strand is a good solution. 48", 32" and 16"

I love your products! I m expanding my pasture and adding new fence. Ive had my old fence about 4 years and moved it from one house to another. I have yet to fi nd a single broken metal strand! Even after 4 years rolling and re-using tree branches falling snow and storms.Thank you for a great fence.
