Premier EquiLine User manual

(above) EquiLine fence at Premier. It’s a safe, clean, attractive,
effective, reliable, “no maintenance” horse fence. EquiLine fences work
best with an energized offset rope (inset above) that keeps horses from
rubbing or leaning on it. The rope can be offset or inserted 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 wind, 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 wire, 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 safer than HT wire?
It’s larger, more visible and more elastic (so it exes
away from horses without injury).
Couplers and ends? (See other side.)
Tension? By hand. (See other 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 strand of offset electrical rope at 36 in.
Vary this to match size of horse(s).
• Attach EquiLine Star to end-posts via knots or Anchors.
Anchors are inserted into end posts with EquiLine Star
passing through them. Anchors are held in position via
strain from the EquiLine. EquiLine Star can be tensioned
through an Anchor via a Strainer.
• Strainer pulls EquiLine Star through the Anchor. Coupler
can be used to connect two ends of EquiLine Star, typically
used to splice rolls together.
• Coupler operates similar to a nger trap, EquiLine is inserted
into both ends of the Coupler and are held via tension.

The option to Gripples
or Anchors are hand-tied
knots. Because nylon
monofilament is so smooth
and elastic, the knot
should be made as shown.
Anchors are inserted into end posts with EquiLine Star
passing through them. Anchors are held in position via
strain from the EquiLine. Strainer pulls EquiLine Star
through the Anchor.
Ways to terminate at ends
Gripples used to
terminate EquiLine at an
end post. They are quick,
simple and effective.
Gripples can also be used
as a splice.
Anchor
Coupler
Wire Anchor
Strainer
A coupler (splice) can be used
to connect 2 ends of EquiLine Star,
typically used to splice rolls together.
Operates similar to a finger trap.
EquiLine is inserted into both ends of
the coupler and held via tension.
