Selecting the Best Field Fence for Your Needs

Field fencing is not a one-size-fits-all product. Which is why Red Brand offers over 45 different kinds of field fence. Some of the considerations that go into selecting an appropriate field fence include the knot style, the galvanization, the height, the length, and the pullout spacing.

• Knots: Knots are largely regarded as superior to welded fences for a variety of reasons. We offer three categories of knot for field fencing depending on the function of the field fence. The galvanization options need to suit the intended purpose as well as the customer budget.
• Pullout Spacing: The pullout spacing refers to the number of inches between the vertical stays. The closer the pullout spacing is, the more rigid the fence will be. When the pullout is closer, it can also serve to prevent smaller animals.
• Height: The height is the next point of consideration. You will need to select an appropriate field fence depending on what type of animal or group of animals you are dealing with. It may need to be large and strong enough to stop cattle but also small enough to prevent smaller animals such as rabbits, or sheep.
• Length: The majority of Red Brand field fence products are available in 330-foot rolls, a standardized length in the industry. 4 rolls of this fence will cover .25 miles.

As a kid I probably helped tear down close to 20 miles of fence on this farm. Every field was fenced...and we pulled and dug out the wire on all of them. I've looked at all the new fence in the TSC's and Rural Kings...and there isn't any that compares with the quality of the old fence. When they put a #9 wire top and bottom on those old fences...you could darn near tear the hole fence out just digging under the wire and lifting with a manure bucket. Will these new woven wire fences last anywhere near the 40 years the old ones did? povertypoint

Kinda anwsered your own question.
Don't even think they call it fence, netting is what some of the lables say.

Red brand isn't to bad.
Every thing seems to have lightened up. From pickups and tractors, right
down to a half gallon box of ice cream (1.75 qts now)
Sad :(

Red Brand or Keystone has 3 different grades of woven wire. We ordered a couple pallets of the old style woven wire. Put wood post every 10 ft., hopefully get 50 years out of this woven wire fence.

I can find a tag if you need it. fowllife

shineyond are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.

They don't stock any of the good stuff since none of the backyard cowboys want to pay for it. They can special order some of the better stuff with the square deal or cross lock ties. I think it's 9 3/4 ga top and bottom now though. It's not as good as the old stuff, but it's better then what they have in stock. pupdaddy12003

...That's good to hear. I've got a couple places I wanted to wrap with fence because mowing it is getting to be a pain. There's always someone with a goat or a sheep they don't want any more...and I thought I might be able to pick up some cheap labor. (Although fence ain't cheap either!!!) It still should save me some time and headaches...(Lawn mower breaking down...keeping gas and oil in it, finding someone to use it when I'm too busy, etc., etc.)

I hate red brand! If I wanted it to last for years and could afford it I would do fixed Knot woven wire. You have to watch woven wire if a sheep can get its head through it seems quite a few of them get stuck in the fence and can not figure out how to get out. I had a ewe years ago stick her head through then put her nose back through another square and hang herself. All the rest of the woven wire is 4x4 squares. The lambs can get heads in so I watch them. If the lambs and sheep have ear tags it seems to be worse. I have OK brand 4x4 and it is doing well Toepincher

Hows the quality of the ok. Here it's a third the price of red brand but half the quality. We are hoping to put up about a mile of woven this fall yet so would also like to hear what others have been doing. I agree i dont like the hole size of the red brand sheep fence. They have a 4x4 but its taller than what we want and expensive denice.r

I find the red brand sags and squares stretch out of shape and it rusts fast. Not had a problem with the ok but mine is recently put up, under 5 years. I have had sheep hit it and so far so good ;) The horses will stretch their necks over and bend the first row but it bends back up just fine.
About the same price here as other fence. JayWalker
