Electric Paddock Tape with 4 stainless steel conductors is perfect for smaller distance fence systems. the 200m x 40mm and 200m x 20mm variations feature a white base with green trace lines, ensuring excellent visibility during dawn and dusk. A green version of the 200m x 20mm is also available that allows it to blend into surroundings if desired.

When selecting conductive materials, visibility is crucial. Electric fences serve as psychological barriers for animals, who must be able to see the fence to avoid it. Therefore, colour choice is important; products with low visual impact for humans are also harder for animals to detect.

Electro tape is particularly popular in equine applications due to its superior visibility, making it a common alternative to traditional fencing. Many Hotline Electric Fencing tapes are constructed with thick polyurethane webbing and reinforced edging to imrpove durability. Poly tapes conduct electricity through thin metal conductors embedded along their length. More metal in a fence line equates to better efficiency.

Steel conductors offer a good balance of conductivity and tensile strength, while copper (typically nickel-plated) excels in conductivity but has lower tensile strength. Tapes combining both materials leverage the strength of steel and the conductivity of copper to minimize overall resistance. Resistance, measured in Ohms, indicates how easily energy flows through the tape; lower Ohm values mean less resistance and more effective power transmission.

Features:

• High-quality stainless steel conductors for efficient current flow
• Ideal for smaller distance fencing
• White with green trace lines for enhanced visibility at dawn and dusk
• Durable material for increased longevity
