Product Description
R19/180/5 Rural Security Fence has pre-stripped ends for ease of joining. It features solid vertical wires, close vertical wire spacings making it difficult to climb, and the unobtrusive high pressure bonded Torus knot which does not have any sharp edges. R19/180/5 can also be used as embankment netting. It is manufactured with high tensile wire which strains tighter than mild steel and so requires fewer intermediate posts.

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. Cranked brackets at the top of fencing face outwards and are an ideal way to protect enclosures from animals that might otherwise climb over fencing. 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. A crank can be positioned at ground level or 500mm from the top of the fence to enable the net to be turned out.
