Product Description
HT8/80/22 is an alternative high tensile stock fence to HT8/80/15, with 22cm spacing between the vertical stay wires. This increased distance helps prevent sheep getting their heads stuck in the fence.
Tornado HT Stock Fence is manufactured with high tensile wire which strains tighter than mild steel and so requires fewer intermediate posts, making it quicker to erect. It does not stretch with weathering so does not need to be retightened annually.

Installation Guidelines
A straining post is required at every major change in direction or any termination and should be supported by a strut or box assembly. Netting should be tied off on the straining posts by hand or with suitable joiners. When tensioning the fence the ‘crimp’ in the net should be reduced by approx: 50%. Avoid driving staples tight against the wire as this will damage the galvanised coating. Two strands of barbed wire or a single electrified wire can be added to the top of the fence.
