IntelliTwine™ 2.25

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (26) Read reviews »

2.25mm (12 gauge/.09" dia.) electrifiable polywire. A good choice when portability is needed. Often used for rotational grazing of cattle and sheep.

Virgin polyethylene monofilaments are twisted with 3 stainless steel and 3 tinned copper filaments. (Copper has the best electrical conductivity of any metal, except silver.)

IntelliTwine™ 2.25 is lightweight, has excellent elasticity, and is resistant to mildew. It’s easy to unwind/rewind onto reels—small diameter enables reels to hold up to 2000 ft.

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

Benefits
This is Premier’s least expensive polywire and the quickest strand fence to install/remove. A good choice for temporary livestock fences or keeping varmints out of gardens.

Polyethylene works well in humid climates because it resists mildew better than polyester.

Can be pre-wound onto an EcoReel, EcoReel XL or a SupaReel (Spool Only) or SupaReel (Complete).

* 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
Use up to 5 strands of electrified IntelliTwine™ 2.25 stretched hand-tight between wood, steel or plastic end/corner posts. Terminate using a TuffRing™ (wood post), PI 21 (T-post), or a Conductor Hook (wherever you need an entrance.)

Properly energized fences last longer and require less maintenance—because animals do not crowd, rub or scratch on them. Confirm voltage is at least 3000V at the end of the fence line. Tree limbs that fall upon the fence must be removed immediately.

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 Gardens:
2-strand fence—15", 6"

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.

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

IntelliTwine™ 2.25 is lightweight and well suited for temporary fencing situations. We do not use this polywire for permanent fences. It lacks longevity (only 5 years of probable life) and it’s thinner than our other electric fence conductors. The advantage is that it’s very portable.

The cost makes it an attractive option for wildlife control in gardens—just insert posts, add insulators, then string it up. However, when compared to electric netting, it’s more work and often less reliable.

We have used this for pasture fence for about 4 years now. I bought some of the cheap stuff at TSC to make some repairs. It doesn't last.
