IntelliBraid® 6.0
Long lasting, 6mm (1/4") dia. braided rope conductor for permanent electric fences.
Tinned copper filaments (2) run along the inner core. First-quality braided polyester and 12 stainless steel filaments provide support. This method reduces the stress on the copper filament, increases strand strength and provides more metal-to-metal and metal-to-animal contact points throughout.

Benefits
Polyester, the same plastic filaments as in EnduraSoft® 6.0, is noted for its strength, soft feel and inherently high resistance to UV light degradation.
Black/white alternating color increases effectiveness by offering contrast to animals against both light and dark backgrounds.
IntelliBraid® 6.0 can be pre-wound onto an EzeReel XL (Spool Only) or EzeReel XL (Complete).

Installation
- Attach a terminal insulator to an end post.
- Tie end of rope to terminal insulator.
- Unroll rope along the fence line.
- Insert line posts.
- Insert rope in the line posts at the right height(s) for your animals. (See recommendations below.)
- Attach insulators (preferably notched PI 21n) to corner and end posts.
- Tie rope to terminal insulator and spring at far end post. By hand, pull it tight enough to eliminate sagging between posts. Tie off by hand, or use a RopeLink. (Note: If the run of the fence is 1000' or more, use a P Spring at both ends of the fence instead of 1 end.)
- Use a wind-up reel system to rewind and store rope.
- Install and connect a fence energizer to a grounding system. Turn on energizer and confirm voltage is at least 3000V at the end of the fence line.

Absolutely dissatisfied. Terrible construction. Began coming apart and breaking within the first month I put it up. Had to take it down and use another product.
Dan K from California
Durable in all weather. After a few years the rope looks and functions like new. Delivers a good shock too.
