At a fraction of the cost of other electric horse fencing systems, ElectroBraid™ is a permanent, easily installed electric fencing designed to provide a safer and more secure horse fence.

It is both a physical barrier and a psychological deterrent. It is highly visible to horses, strong, durable, resilient, and has a break strength of 1,300 lbs. per rail. ElectroBraid™ consists of two 99% pure copper wires woven with polyester fibers. ElectroBraid™ is light weight and easier to handle than other electric fencing products, allowing anyone to install this fencing. It resists attack by Ultra-Violet (UV) light, salt, manure, and most farm chemicals. ElectroBraid™ is designed to minimize injuries and to secure horses.

ElectroBraid™ looks like high quality braided yachting rope. A double helix of copper wire conductors is braided into the outer jacket of the rope. 3 or 4 (or more) strands of ¼ inch diameter Braid are mounted on insulators installed on your posts. Fence posts can be wood, vinyl, steel or fiberglass, spaced 12’ apart. (RAMM recommends post spacing no more than 16 feet apart with horses). Most importantly, the Electrobraid™ Company offers a Limited Safety Warranty against horses getting injured.

ElectroBraid™ comes in white, black or speckled and is available in 600 foot or 1,200 foot rolls. For more information on ElectroBraid™ electric horse fencing, call your RAMM representative at 1-800-434-8456 and place your order today!

SIX COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT ELECTROBRAID™.

Q: What is ElectroBraid™?
ElectroBraid™ is a permanent electric fence designed especially for horses. It is both a physical barrier and a psychological deterrent. It is highly visible to horses, strong, durable and resilient.

Q: How does it work
Once a horse receives a painful shock the horse will not go near the fence again. It won't rub against the fence. It won't crib on it. And it won't try to jump over it, or go through it, or go under. It doesn't want to get shocked again.

Q: How durable is ElectroBraid™ Fence?
The high-grade polyester fiber is the same fiber used in automotive seat belts and parachute harnesses. Polyester resists attack by ultraviolet light, salt, manure, and most farm chemicals. The copper develops an oxidized outer layer or 'patina' that protects the copper wire from corrosion. The ElectroBraid™ carries a 25-year warranty.

Q: What makes ElectroBraid™ a safe horse fence?
There are no impact injuries. There are no sharp points or hard edges. There are no boards to break or splinter. There are no wires to cut or puncture. Horses crib on board fences and rub against it. Even minor cuts can become seriously infected. The worst potential injury with ElectroBraid™ is if a horse is able to wrap a strand of Braid™ completely around a rear leg and struggles. The prospect of such an accident can be virtually eliminated by wiring, and grounding, the fence correctly, by keeping the Braid™ taut.

Q: Why is maintenance cost low?
If you properly install your corner and end posts, they won't move. Brass and copper components won't corrode. Occasionally, an insulator might break and need replacement. Little else will need repair. For some reason, lightning rarely touches ElectroBraid™ - if it does, a few hundred feet of ElectroBraid™ may need replacement, and perhaps an energizer. If a tree falls on the fence, cut it off and the Braid™ will spring right back. The fence is seldom, if ever, damaged by storms, including ice storms and tornadoes. Repairs are quick and easily done by hand.

Q: What maintenance is required?
Walk the fence line to confirm your fence has not been damages. Check the voltage regularly. Once or twice a year, mow weeds from under your fence. In the spring, make sure no fence posts have been heaved by frost.

- We put the electrobraid fence up 7 years ago. We had to travel for awhile so the fence was left unattended for 5 years. When we returned we just tightened the fence and it was as good as new. Secondly while we were away we found out that our mare was an escape artist. She has been fenced in many types of electric wire fences. She always found a way out. We have been back almost a year and she has not been out yet, execpt when she unlocked the gate. Last our electric bill is a much less with this fence than the traditional wire. We are planning on getting more when we fence in another field.
