- IntelliBraid® 6.0
- IntelliBraid® Twine PE 3.0
Common Uses
Specs
- 8.5" long without tension
- 1" wide
- Stretches to 35 lb (half compressed)
- Stainless steel
Benefits
- Should not rust
- Use with all types of rope conductors
- Easy to use
How to Use
- Attach one end of spring to a terminal insulator. (The P Spring will simply hook over some insulators; for others, you will need to tie the spring to insulators with rope or wire.)
- Attach conductor to other end of spring by taking the loose end of conductor and putting it through open end of spring.
- Pull conductor until spring is 1/3 to 1/2 compressed.
- Run conductor through the loop one more time and tie off.
- Whenever conductor becomes loose, repeat above steps.
Tips
However, if you don't have a helper to hold the tension on the rope, you may loose too much tension in the process of getting the RopeLink wrapped around the rope.
Solution: Attach the P Spring to the terminal insulator and loop the rope through it twice. Then pull the rope tight so the P Spring is FULLY compressed. When you get the RopeLink attached, you may have lost some of the tension on the rope, but the P Spring is half compressed just like it should be.

Building a new paddock so ordered the P-Springs to do it. We've used these on all of our paddocks and they work great.

Great product, we are in the process of replacing all of our high tensile wire fence with rope fencing. (Big job!) The p-springs are easy to use and make it easy to get your fence tension just right!

I am a backyard horse owner, but want a secure , attractive fence. P-Springs are easy to use, keep the fence tight, no sagging except under heavy icing conditions, or tree falls after which the fence will spring back into shape or just need minor tightening. The springs protect the fence thus protect your livestock and help limit repairs.
