They’re Bringing Utility Techniques To Farm Fencing
Now you can fix fences like utility linesmen have fixed lines for decades. Ranchmate™ products, brought to you by Preformed Line Products (PLP), have applied company technology developed for the utility market almost 70 years ago to high tensile and barbed wire fencing.
“When farmers try our TwistSplice, TwistEnd terminations and other products, they ask where we’ve been all their lives,” says Dustin Graef, Field Sales Representative for Ranchmate.
With Ranchmate products, the only tools needed to build or repair fence wire are a stretcher and a wire cutter. The TwistSplices are used to reconnect any broken or cut wire. The TwistEnds are designed to create a secure loop around a post or to create a radius around a corner post. When finished, there are no crimped and weakened wires.
What makes Ranchmate’s TwistSplices and TwistEnds different is their preformed helical rod technology. Before being used, the preformed TwistSplices and TwistEnds look as though they are already wrapped around an invisible core.
When TwistSplices and TwistEnds are applied to correctly sized, stretched wire ends, they follow their preformed shape, locking tightly in place. Wrapping the TwistSplice around a broken wire or the TwistEnd to a terminating wire at an end post creates a solid rod-like connection.
“Our TwistSplices and TwistEnds are made from Class 3 or higher galvanized steel that won’t crack or rust,” says Graef. “TwistSplices are much stronger than the original wire’s breaking strength and likely will outlast it.”
The TwistSplices are color coded to match standard fence wire from 12.4 to 18 gauge barbed wire or 9 to 12.5 gauge smooth wire. TwistEnds also match a wide variety of barbed and smooth wires, as well as insulated and non-insulated wood posts and metal T-posts.
The Ranchmate product line includes a variety of fencing tools and accessories, such as one-man single bar fence stretchers, fence clip tie bars for installing and removing T-post clips, the Patented 3D Post™ mount “no trespassing” “no hunting” signs, and a simple dispenser for coiled wire and more. Items sold directly support the National FFA® Organization™.
Ranchmate products are available for purchase online at Ranchmate.com and for a limited time, shipping is free. Products are also available, through several farm and hardware supply stores nationwide.
