IntelliRope® PE 6.0
Excellent for both permanent and portable fence situations because PE (polyethylene) filaments resist wear and abrasion.
Identical to IntelliRope® PE 4.5 except it has more polyethylene (PE) monofilaments.

Cost
Installation
- Install wood end, corner and line posts.
- Attach insulators to posts.
- Attach rope to one end.
- Clip rope into insulators. Pull until the P Spring is 50% compressed. Terminate it.
- Connect ropes together electrically at one end with a piece of insulated wire.
- Install and connect the energizer. Voltage should be over 1500V.
- Note: If run is 1000' feet or longer, use a P Spring at both ends of the fence instead of 1 end.

Precautions
*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).
Listed below are recommended optional components. Your particular situation may require alternative recommendations. Please call and talk to our fence consultants if there are any questions at 800-282-6631.

I love this rope. It is easy to use for overnight camping with my horse and so easy to rewind.

I like the PE 6.0. It isn't soft like the endurasoft, but it feels more rugged. It's just thicker intelitwine. The endurasoft will snag easily on briars or even snag on hooks. The PE doesn't do that. I've been using it for cattle gates.

I use this for kids and am positive it works much better than ordinary wire being much more visible.

We’ve depended on Premier1 products for nearly 15 years to help us save, and now restore, a rare breed of horse. In a difficult, hard to reach environment the ropes, tapes, posts, chargers etc all work beyond expectations, some of the rope and tape still in use. Thank You to Premier1 for great products and an equally great support team.

I read previous reviews and did a lot of research on different kinds and brands of fencing before I decided to purchase this product. The quality for the value is why I bought 3 rolls of 1320sqft, in total, of IntelliRope PE 6.0. We Put up two rolls in August of 2018. It made it through the winter beautifully. It is very functional, the horses definitely see it and it is aesthetically pleasing. It was easy to work with and put up. And a bonus is that shipping was speedy! Great product!
