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"
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 Deer Exclusion:
2-strand fence—48", 30"
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.

Fantastic product! I extended my pasture and decided to use this fencing again as what I have had for a year has held up beautifully. It is easy to string up and manage, holds a good charge and is highly visible. I fully recommend the IntelliRope!

Like the product, however the only issue I've had is that the rolls were inconsistent in length. I bought 5 rolls and when I positioned my posts I used the first roll that I grabbed it happened to be the longest one by over 30 feet. This may not seem to big a deal but I ended up cutting down 3 trees that were now in the way.

I had some issues with this rope and breakage. Premier responded very promptly, offered several suggestions and likely causes. They also offered to analyze the broken sections of the rope when I got it out in the spring. Customer service is outstanding, and I have plan and no concerns about returning this rope to work in the spring.

Just ordered a new roll to make some repairs and build some new fence after tornado damage. This rope is great! Very versatile and portable for changing situations, and I actually use it as permanent fence with three or four strands uncharged for my two horses who do not challenge a fence. We put our existing fence up in 2000 and it is still going strong and is still very visible, showing very little wear or mildew. We also have Endurasoft and that has been excellent as well. Fence has not needed tightening since the first time after installation. We have it installed with p-springs. Premier is a great company.... their products really last way beyond what you can get at the farm supply stores.

So far so good. I have had this fence up for a few weeks and have had my horses in it for a couple of weeks. I put the fence up by myself in the dark with no problem. No trouble getting it hot. It is easy to see, looks clean and neat. Very please so far.
