(above) E quiLine fence at P remier. It’s a safe, clean, attractive, effective, reliable, “no maintenance ” horse fence. EquiLine fe nces work best with an energized offset rope (inset abo ve) that keeps horse s from rubbing or leaning on it. The rop e can be offs et or inser ted in place of a strand of EquiLine.

What is EquiLine?
A high-strength polyester horse fence made in
Australia.
It’s 2.6 mm (.10") in diameter. White. Will not rust, rot, corrode, fade (in color) or mildew. It is not conductive.
Key Features:
• Safe for horses
• Requires very little maintenance if tensioned
adequately and the posts are properly installed.
• Very attractive.
• Resists w ind, snow, ice and time better than all
other safe horse
fence materials.
• Like all non-conductive horse fences, adding an offset energized wire keeps horses from leaning on
or reaching through it.
• Best results (and faster installation) occur if proper
anchors, splices and tools are used (see other side) .
Cost: as low as 54¢ per ft
How does EquiLine Star differ from EquiLine
(which it replaces)?
1. Much stronger—because it is polyester instead of nylon. It’s similar in strength to high-tensile
wire —but unlike HT w ire, it’s large enough in
diameter to be safe to use for horse fences.
2. It’s cross-sectional shape is star-shaped instead of round.
Other things to consider
Why is it sa fer than HT wire?
It’s larger, more visible and more elastic (so it exes
away from horses without injury).
Couplers and ends? (S ee other side. ) Ten si on? By hand. (See o ther side. ) Spacing between posts? Up to 20 ft. Line posts and end posts? Same as for electrified
rope fences.
How long will it last? Fences installed over 15 years
ago are as good as new.

To install EquiLine Star
• Use 5 or 6 strands spaced 10 to 12 in. apart.
• Total height: 50 to 60 in.
• Either thread through the posts or use staples to attach it to the post. Attach a stra nd of offset electrical rope at 36 in. Vary this to match size of horse(s).
• Attach EquiLine Star to end-posts v ia knots or A nchors. Anchors a re inserted into end posts with EquiLine Star passing through them. Anchors a re held in posit ion via strain from the EquiLine. EquiLine Star can be tensioned through a n Anchor v ia a Strainer.
• Strainer pulls EquiLine Star through the Anchor. Coupler can be used to connect two ends of EquiLine Star, t ypica lly used to splice rol ls together.
• Coupler operates sim ilar to a nger trap, EquiLine is inserted into both ends of the Coupler and are held via tension.

The option to G ripples or Anchors are hand-tied knots. B ecause nylon monofila ment is so smooth and elast ic, the knot should be m ade as shown.
Anchor s are inserted in to end posts with Equ iLine Star passin g through them. An chors are held in p osition via strain from the EquiLine. Strainer pulls EquiLine Star through the Anchor.
Ways to terminate at ends
Gripple s used to terminat e EquiLine at an end post. Th ey are quick, simple an d effective. Gripple s can also be used as a splic e.
Anchor
Coupler
Wire Anchor
Strainer
A coupler (spl ice) can be used to connec t 2 ends of EquiLin e Star, typically used to splice rolls together. Operate s similar to a finger tra p. EquiLin e is inserted into b oth ends of the coupl er and held via tensio n.
