How the part fits?
Tension wire is used for multiple applications. You will see tension wire most commonly used as bottom tension wire in substitute of bottom rail. Bottom tension wire will help prevent people and animals from pushing their way underneath a fence. You can also use tension wire in substitute for your top rail; this will make it harder for people to climb. This will also help you save some cost.
Where is it installed?
Tension wire can be installed on the bottom and top of your fence. It is most common on the bottom of your fence.
How many do you need?
You will need the same amount of feet of fence + 1 extra foot per run (to wrap around itself).
How do you install it?
You will want to roll out your tension wire on the outside of the fence. You will then stop at your terminal post and attach it to your end band bolt and start tightening the wire. When the tension wire is tightened you will crimp hog rings every 2’ to secure the tension wire to the fabric.
