One of the most effective means of reducing fence maintenance is to install a hot wire on your fence. Should horse owners wish to incorporate this into their fence we have made a provision in the Equi-Tee adapter.  The Hot Wire stud is installed by snapping and gluing it into the pre-drilled hole on the face of the Clip-Top.

It also works beautifully when attached to three or four rail polyvinyl fence posts where a scare wire is necessary. We strongly urge horse owners to utilize a polyrope, rather than steel hot wire to reduce the chance of severe lacerations to the horse should an accident occur. The insulator is available in bulk form as well as by the bag.  For more information and photo's click here.

Polyrope Hotwire Part # PR-1

A recent innovation in horse fencing safety is the introduction of a poly rope interlaced with small stainless or tinned steel wires. In a panic situation a vinyl fence is going to offer little resistance to a determined horse running into it. To your horse installing a conventional smooth wire is like installing a cheese cutter, and makes PVC into a deadly fence. Because the steel wires in the poly rope are small they will break, and this features allows a hot wire to be installed without compromising the forgiving nature of your PVC fence. We strongly urge horse owners to utilize a polyrope, rather a than steel hot wire to reduce the chance of severe lacerations to the horse should an accident occur.

Securing Pins, Part# EF-7

These pins are what secures the rail to the Equi-Tee adapter.  Rather than notching the rail as is customary for vinyl post and rail applications, we have chosen to use these pins because it allows additional fence flex without the rails popping out. It also requires no special tools to install. Installation is accomplished by drilling a 1/4 inch hole in the rail by using the adapter as a guide. Slide the pin into the rail until the tabs lock.  If the rail must be removed, it can be released by cutting the pin with a hacksaw blade.

Post Clip, Part # EF-9

The post clip is designed to securely fasten the EF-1 adapter to the T post.  It will fit medium (1.25 lb/ft) and heavy duty (1.33 lb/ft) Posts. Since the various brands of posts have their studs places at different intervals, this clip fits in a slot that allows it to be adjusted. It is very secure and will withstand considerable abuse before releasing. 

Post Cap, Part # EF-10

One of the concerns of horse owners when installing woven wire fencing is the exposed T post top. This cap is designed to protect the horse from injury should contact occur. It is constructed of very heavy wall material, and will not disintegrate from exposure. It is firmly snapped into the Equi-Tee assembly and is held in place by a tab. The entire assembly is secured to the T post by the post clip. Once installed it takes a great deal of effort to remove this cap.  Even when subjected to horseplay it will remain firmly attached to the post.
