FENCE WIRE 5.20MM 400M HORSE SIGHTER WHITE PVC WHITES 10169 at a glance

Horse Sight Fence Wire is a visible top wire for horse and livestock fencing. It is designed to improve fence visibility for horses, help reduce fence damage, and minimise injuries. The wire has a white UV-stabilised PVC coating over a galvanised steel core for enhanced visibility, weather resistance, and long outdoor life.

FEATURES
White PVC coating improves visibility for horses, reducing the risk of collisions and injuries.
UV-stabilised PVC coating helps resist sunlight and weathering in outdoor conditions.
Soft tensile wire makes installation easier and safer in fencing applications.
Galvanised steel core provides strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.
Used as the top wire in horse fencing to increase visibility and reduce injury risk.
Suitable for rural and equine fencing where a visible and durable wire is required.
Can be integrated into livestock fencing to enhance safety in mixed paddocks.

Unroll the wire along your horse paddock fence line at the appropriate height — typically 1.2m for the top strand and 0.6m for a lower strand if running two lines. Tension the wire using a come-along or ratchet strainer, keeping tension firm and consistent without over-straining. Secure to posts with appropriate fencing clips or staples. The bright white PVC coating makes this wire highly visible to horses, reducing the risk of fence strikes. Tips: Horse sighter wire is particularly effective when horses are moved into a new paddock for the first time — the visibility helps them learn the fence boundary quickly. Don't over-tension the wire in hot weather as the PVC coating can degrade if the wire is under excessive strain in high temperatures. Check tension seasonally as Queensland temperature ranges can cause movement over time.

Common Questions

What is this fence wire used for?

This is a visible top wire for horse and livestock fencing. It's designed to improve fence visibility for horses, help reduce fence damage, and minimise injuries. The white coating makes it easier for horses to see the fence, which reduces the risk of collisions.

Why is the PVC coating white?

The white PVC coating improves visibility for horses, making the fence easier to see and reducing the risk of the animals running into it. The coating is also UV-stabilised, so it resists sunlight and weathering to keep the wire visible and durable outdoors.

What's inside the PVC coating?

The wire has a galvanised steel core underneath the white PVC coating. The galvanised steel provides strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, while the soft tensile wire makes installation easier and safer.

How much wire is in each coil?

Each coil is 400 metres long and weighs 43kg. The wire diameter is 5.20mm total (including the PVC coating).

Can this wire be used in mixed livestock paddocks?

Yes, it can be integrated into livestock fencing to enhance safety in mixed paddocks. It's suitable for both equine fencing and general rural and livestock fencing applications where a visible and durable wire is needed.
