Polyplus HTP® and White Lightning HTP® Fence
High tensile wire fencing is dangerous for horses because it can act like a cheese grater and slice a horses legs.
Some great alternatives are Centaur HTP®'s two products:
-
Non-electrified PolyPlus HTP®
-
Electrified White Lightning HTP®.
Both styles are polymer coated high tensile wire fencing specifically designed for horses. Because the high tensile wire is coated with polymer, it is more visible to horses. The polymer helps protect horses' legs and body from getting sliced, if they should run into the fence or kick at the wires.
PolyPlus HTP® - a polymer coated high tensile wire fence that is non-electrified.
12.5 gauge high tensile wire on the inside, embedded in a tough HTP® Polymer coating, the same coating as the Centaur HTP® 5" rail.
Outside diameter - 5/16" inch, thicker than most generic name products.
Minimum breaking strength per strand is 1400 lbs.
2X stronger than braided rope
An economical choice
Great visibility because the strands are thicker than galvanized high tensile wire.
Nearly identical to PolyPlus HTP®, White Lightning HTP® conducts electric and is also coated with polymer to help protect horses. Colors available are white, brown and black.
Conducts electricity - 4 safety-shock points
12 1/2 gauge high tensile wire on the inside, embedded in a tough HTP® Polymer coating, the same coating as the Centaur HTP® 5" rail.
Outside diameter - 5/16" inch, thicker than most generic name products.
Minimum breaking strength per strand is 1400 lbs.
