The Difference Between Knots




Fixed KnotOur fixed knot design is top on the line. It utilizes solid vertical
stay wires which increase the vertical strength of the fence and
allow for increased post spacing. The knot is a separate piece
of wire tightly wrapped around the line wire and stay wire. Fixed
knot is very resistant to animal damage.



"S" KnotFound on our non-climb products, this design uses a
separate piece of wire to attach the line wire to the solid
stay wire. The "S" knot is smooth to the touch and strong
enough to resist animal impact.



Hinge JointFound on our high tensile field fence and our standard low
carbon field fence products, this knot is common in agricultural
fencing. The knot is formed by wrapping the vertical stay wire
pieces around the line wire at each intersection. This design
can absorb animal impact without damage. The hinge joint is
the economical knot choice.

We carry the hinge joint in Bekaert, Keystone, Range Master, and Livestock. This knot acts as a hinge that gives under pressure, then springs back into shape. The hinge knot fence is easy to install because the hinge "gives" and will retain its full height for continuing protection. Both low carbon and high tensile comes in hinge joint fences.
