IntelliRope® PE 6.0

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (52) Read reviews »

Excellent low-tension conductor for both permanent and semi-permanent fences. Virgin polyethylene monofilaments are interwoven with 3 tinned copper and 3 stainless steel conductive filaments.

6mm (1/4") diameter is heavier and stronger than IntelliRope® PE 4.5, but also more expensive.

IntelliRope® BLUE PE 6.0 similar to our standard IntelliRope®, with blue filaments to enhance visibility to animals (who can see shades of blue).

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

Benefits
Elastic and wear resistant, IntelliRope® is commonly used to contain horses, cattle, sheep and goats. It’s also an effective conductor for anti-deer fences.

Well suited for humid climates because mildew does not thrive on polyethylene (PE). But PE filaments are “slick”—it’s difficult to tie a knot in PE rope. Use a RopeLink or Rope Connector for connections.

Can be pre-wound onto an EcoReel™ XL.

* Probable lifespan 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).

Installation Tips
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.

Plug-in (AC) energizers are best if the fence is close to a 110V power outlet. Solar energizers may be a good option for fences far away from an outlet. A wide-impedance energizer such as the Kube 4000 is well-suited for most “4-season” fences—a fence that must work when grass stays brown or snow covers the ground.

Spacing of line posts (not more than 35 ft) 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.

  1. Attach a terminal insulator to an end post.
  2. Tie end of rope to terminal insulator.
  3. Unroll rope along the fence line.
  4. Insert line posts.
  5. Insert rope in the line posts at the right height(s) for your animals. (See recommendations below.)
  6. Attach insulators (preferably notched PI 21n) to corner and end posts.
  7. 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.)
  8. Use a wind-up reel system to rewind and store rope.
  9. 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.

Suggested Strand Height (from ground):

For Sheep & Goats:
3-strand fence—35", 24", 12"
5-strand fence—36", 27", 20", 13", 7"

1-strand fence—34"
2-strand fence—34", 22"
3-strand fence—40", 27", 15"

5-strand fence—50", 40", 30", 20", 10"
3D anti-deer fence—inside: 48", 18"; outside: 34"

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

The thickness of this rope (6mm) is ideal for a horse or anti-deer fence. It is very visible and like IntelliRope® PE 4.5, it is easy to handle when installing. Both are particularly good for humid climates because mildew doesn’t thrive on polyethylene. When installed and maintained properly, IntelliRope® has a lifespan of up to 10 years.

Love this fence. Very easy to see horse and person. Durable. Lasts forever. Conducts electricity easily, becomes very hot with good charger. Will always own this for my horse fencing.

Easy ordering. Fast delivery. The product has always been A1. Highly recommend Premier 1. The last thing we ordered was the white electric fencing and it is very superior.

On the recommendation of a friend, I selected IntelliRope PE 6.0 for my fencing. I am so glad I did. The value and quality are outstanding! The rope was easy to work with and my entire permiter fence was installed with the help of friends. I love the clean look and the horses have no problems seeing the fence. I have a four strand perimeter fence and some 3-strand semi-permanent cross fencing. I highly recommend this product!

Excellent value, easy to install. I have used this, its thinner version, EnduraSoft & the SW tape. My favorite is one line of tape & 2 lines of this below the tape. Have had up for over 6 years with excellent results, very little wear. Easy to tighten! Excellent with SW tape on top for foals, they literally bounced off it with no injuries. We use around a high deer population, love the deer can see it & don't take it down like they do the cheap black/yellow ropes. Highly recommend!
