IntelliRope® PE 4.5

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (40) Read reviews »

4.5mm (3/16") electrifiable rope for semi-permanent and portable fencing situations.

  • Virgin polyethylene (v-PE) filaments resist wear and abrasion
  • Excellent built-in elasticity
  • 3 tinned copper and 3 stainless steel conductive filaments are 400 times more conductive vs. stainless steel only polywires

IntelliRope® PE 4.5 is identical to IntelliRope® PE 6.0, except it has fewer non-conductive monofilaments making it thinner and lighter.

We offer a wide-range of electrifiable ropes, twines and tapes to fit your situation. Visit this link to compare all Premier conductors.

Benefits
Grass farmers often use IntelliRope® as reliable subdivision fence for rotational grazing. Though many use this polywire as a boundary fence, you do so at your own risk. Train your animals to respect electric fence first!

It is particularly good for humid climates because polyethylene resists mildew better than polyester.

IntelliRope® PE 4.5 can be pre-wound onto:

* Probable life is not a warranty by Premier. Why not? Because we know that longevity is highly dependent upon, but not limited to, quality of installation, insulator(s) used, rope tension, animal/wind/snow/ice/vegetation pressure and UV exposure (altitude and climate).

Cost
Approximate cost: 6¢ per foot

Installation Tips
Use up to 5 strands of electrified IntelliRope® PE 4.5 stretched hand-tight between wood, steel or plastic end/corner posts. Terminate using P Springs and RopeLinks. The goal is to have the P Springs half compressed once everything is pulled tight.

Regular maintenance is required to adjust the tension of conductors and reset any loose line posts. Tree limbs that fall upon the fence must be removed immediately.

For dry soil and snowy conditions, convert the fence to “positive/negative” by connecting every other strand to a galvanized stake driven into the soil.

Spacing of line posts must be adjusted to terrain. Always put a post at top of hills and bottom of valleys. Vary the spacing of rope strands according to type and size of animal(s), fence usage (boundary vs. subdivision) and the number of strands.

Suggested Strand Height (from ground):

For Sheep:
3-strand fence—35", 24", 12"
5-strand fence—36", 27", 20", 13", 7"
For Cattle:
1-strand fence—34"
2-strand fence—34", 22"
3-strand fence—40", 27", 15"
For Horses:
2-strand fence—46", 24"
5-strand fence—60", 48", 36", 24", 12"
For Gardens:
2-strand fence—15", 6"

Precautions
When cutting the rope to length, lightly burn the ends with a lighter or match to avoid unraveling.

IntelliRope® is the main low-tension conductor used on our farms. It is far more visible than standard electric wire and easier to install (doesn’t try to “re-wind” itself). Last winter a deer became caught in the fence—as evidenced by the hair left behind—and broke the rope (a rare occurrence). We were able to mend the break by using a simple RopeLink. If you’re fencing specifically for horses use a 6mm gauge (IntelliRope®, EnduraSoft®, IntelliBraid®), or a tape conductors.

Works very well.

First time with IntelliRope. Worked very well. Previously, only used IntelliTape, which I had used exclusively. Put up an extension of a pasture for horse, near the road. Used a combination of 2 board, 1 IntelliTape between the boards, and 1 IntelliRope above the top board primarily to limit or stop the horses from cribbing. So far, so good. Had serveral compliments on how it looked coming into the farm.

I like the rope, it conducts well and is lightweight. Perfect for rotational grazing. Just be forewarned that 660' does not fit well on the EZ reel as they recommend. While it fits when carefully wound when in the field it is hard to get it tight and straight and falls off the edge of the reel when full. I'd just put less rope on the reel or use a smaller diameter rope.

I used this for my inner fence in my dirt paddocks. The rope is HOT and the horses stay off of it. It's highly visible and strong. Easy to tighten if they do bounce off it.
