Benefits of high tensile fencing

[AllanF]

Hi everyone,

 

Sorry if this is an obvious question...

 

What advantages does a high tensile fence have over a mild steel one?

It holds its tension and has more elasticity so it stretches but springs back again. You can space you posts further because of its elasticity. Also metre for metre it is lighter on the same spec fence so it is easier to handle. It does not sag on a hot day either.

he there, also ht is better for undulating ground, MS I feel doesn't keep an even tension if going up and down over a pull.

I would say yes, subject to how its installed. You need to anchor the dip posts well or they will launch upwards.
