Product Information
Full details
The Fenceman High Performance Tape is an ideal solution for livestock owners and farmers looking for a reliable, highly visible method of paddock management and boundary control. Engineered for durability, this 40mm tape provides an effective physical barrier that can be used with or without an electric fence system, though its lack of UV-resistant warning labels means users should monitor the tape periodically for weathering in high-exposure areas.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can this tape be used without an electric energizer?
Yes, it functions as a highly visible physical barrier even without electricity.
How do I connect two lengths of tape?
Use purpose-built tape connectors or buckles to ensure the stainless steel filaments remain in contact.
Is this tape suitable for horses?
Yes, its 40mm width makes it highly visible, which is beneficial for keeping horses aware of the fence line.
How long will the tape last?
Lifespan depends on exposure to UV light, wind, and animal pressure, but proper tensioning significantly extends its service life.
Will this tape rust?
No, it features stainless steel conductors specifically chosen to resist rust and corrosion in outdoor environments.
Troubleshooting
The fence is not delivering a consistent shock.
Check all connection points for corrosion and ensure the stainless steel filaments are in contact with the fence connectors.
The tape is sagging between posts.
Increase the tension using a proper tape tensioner or decrease the distance between your fence posts.
The tape is fraying at the edges.
Check for sharp burrs on insulators or fence posts that might be catching the tape during high winds.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High visibility for livestock safety
- Easy to install and adjust in the field
- Durable construction with reliable conductive filaments
- Suitable for both permanent and temporary paddock layouts
Cons
- Requires proper tensioning to prevent sagging over long distances
- Standard white color may blend into snowy environments
- Not intended for extreme high-tensile permanent wire fencing applications
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, use dedicated tape insulators to maintain the integrity of the conductive filaments and prevent energy leakage to fence posts. Ensure the tape is kept taut using tensioners to avoid wind whipping, which can prematurely fray the edges. When cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals; a simple wipe down with a damp cloth is sufficient to remove dirt or debris. Always check that the stainless steel strands are not broken during installation, as this will create a weak point in the electrical circuit. Store the unused tape in a dry, shaded area during the off-season to prolong the lifespan of the synthetic materials.
