High Tensile Barbed Wire
High tensile barbed wire is designed for maximum strength and durability. Made from steel with a higher carbon content, it can withstand more tension and is less prone to sagging or stretching.
Key Benefits:
Superior Strength
Keeps livestock secure and withstands pressure over time.
Reduced Maintenance
Holds its shape with minimal need for repairs.
Cost-Effective Long-Term
Fewer posts required, saving on materials and labor.
Corrosion Resistant
Galvanized with Class III coatings for long-lasting performance.
High tensile barbed wire is an ideal choice for permanent fencing on ranches and large properties.
Low Carbon Barbed Wire
Low carbon barbed wire is easier to handle and install, making it a great option for many fencing projects. It’s made with lower carbon steel, which provides flexibility and easier tying.
Key Benefits:
Easy to Work With
Great for quick or temporary fence installations
Flexible
Conforms well to uneven terrain and rolling landscapes.
Budget-Friendly
Lower upfront costs for fencing projects.
Galvanized Options
Choose from various coatings for rust protection.
Low carbon barbed wire is well-suited for smaller jobs, rotational grazing, or areas with shifting terrain.
