A Kiwi trusted, high quality fence Cyclone's Tightlock fence consists of line, stay and knot wires. Line wires are continuous in length and made from high tensile wire. The stay wires (vertical) are made from medium tensile wire and continuous in length. They combine with the knots and tension curves to create overall rigidity and elasticity. The knots are made from low tensile wire and can hold between 60-90kg per knot. The load of any impact will spread and dissipate over the full fence height and for some distance on either side.
| PROPERTIES | BENEFITS |
|---|---|
| Independent knots | Increase structural strength of the fence Allow wire to follow contours |
| Fabricated | Faster to erect Less posts required Lower total fence cost than wire and batten |
| Tension curves | Easy to strain Allows for impact to dissipate over the fence and return to original condition |
| TYPE | APPLICATION |
|---|---|
| FAWN | Used in deer fawning paddocks due to the tighter 240 mm stay wire combined with the 89 mm line wire prevents new born fawns from slipping through the fence. |
| DEER | 1900 mm is the standard height. 1550 mm is used with a top wire to make up the 1900 mm height. A 150 mm stay wire is often used for additional security on boundary fence and raceways compared to a 300 mm stay for internal fence and sometimes used for boundary as an economical alternative. Used for deer and ostriches. |
| TOP UP | Designed to make the extra height on top of a standard fence rather than replacing the entire fence. Used for deer and ostriches. |
| FIELD | Regional differences dicatate the different line wires and total heights. Combinations with barbed wires or electric wires complete the barrier for stock. Used in high stock pressure applications for cattle, sheep, goats and pigs. |
