GreenCote™ 8/32/9 HT Woven Wire

Coated with a green polymer coating. Enhances the looks of the fence and also the longevity. In terms of reliability, maintenance, cost, appearance, and risk of escape in all conditions year-round, this has been a nearly flawless multi-specie permanent boundary fence our our farms at Premier. We use it with 2 smooth strands above (1 at 40" that is electrified and 1 grounded at 46") and 2 offset electrified strands down low (8" and 28").

We base this on 40 years of installing, observing and using fences worldwide.

Common Uses

Used as a boundary or subdivision fence for sheep, cattle, goats, llamas and pigs. Keeps in guard dogs and keeps out coyotes and stray dogs.
Specs

  • 8 horizontal wires
  • 9" between verticals
  • 32" tall
  • Class 3 galvanized for longer life
  • horizontals are spaced: 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 and 6".
  • 330' per roll
  • Hinged knot joints.
  • All wires are 12.5 gauge.
  • High tensile so it is more elastic, which means that it will bounce back from heavy snow loads and/or tree branches falling on it.
  • Green polymer coating extends life by resisting rust longer than galvanized only.

Benefits

Green color is attractive. Will last for many years with minimal care. Good for many animals.
Costs

Cost as low as $0.91 per foot. Factors that drive the cost up or down are site preparation, fence layout (straight vs curved; flat vs up/down; short vs long), post spacing, post costs, HT wire differences and the number of energized strands.
Installation

  1. Set the end/corner/curve brace assemblies.
  2. Stretch a GreenCote barbed wire at soil level to use as a "straight-edge" for installing line posts.
  3. Power-drive or hand-set the line posts. Attach barbed wire to posts.
  4. Unroll the woven wire. Strain it from end post to end post with strainer clamps. Staple woven wire to posts.
  5. Strain and attach 2 HT smooth wires above the woven wire.
  6. Insulate, strain and attach offset wires.
  7. Install a cut-out switch at an end post to allow turning off the power from the lowest wire when animals are not in the field.
  8. Connect all insulated wires to the energizer or cut-out switch.
  9. Connect all non-insulated wires (and the woven wire) to a ground rod.
Tip: A woven wire clamp (#404100) is well worth the investment for pulling woven wire evenly.

$74.00
A very effective barbed wire that is not affected by the amount of weeds or whether the soil is dry, wet or snow-covered. Install it right and you can forget it.

How it differs from others:
  • Has larger gauge line wires.
  • The teeth of each barb is longer.
  • Twice as resistant to rust due to its unique outer green-polymer coating.
The combination is a very aggressive animal barrier that lasts a long time.

The best version of this tool that we've ever used. Makes tensioning woven wire less of a hassle. Very robust. Clamp has a series of heavy steel wedges that, when tapped down with a hammer, squeeze tight against the horizontal wires.

For use separately or with GreenCote woven wire. Coiled "catch-wound". Unwinds best as individual coils. A smooth wire HT fence is the lowest-cost permanent fence per year of useful life if installed correctly. It is simpler to install than woven wire.
