Agricultural Wire
Frequently Bought Together
Agricultural Support Wire is a market-leading high tensile support wire which has been specifically developed for a variety of applications such as fruit and wine growing, greenhouse construction, oyster farming and water depot covering. Its unique properties offer it many advantages over normal wire and it is strongly recommended by industry experts to be used in all horticultural applications.
Benefits & Features:
- High uniformity in diameter (2mm-6mm)
- High viscosity Polyamid 6-product
- High linear tenacity
- Durable smooth surface
- 7 times lighter than steel wire making it easier to handle and use
- 2 or 3 rows can be tightened in one step saving time and manpower (especially on steep slopes)
- No friction, hot spot or rust damage will occur because of its permanently smooth plastic surface
- Not affected by pesticides or fertilisers
- UV-stabilised to retain high tensile strength and elongation elasticity for years
- Low maintenance once secured tight – resistant to high temperatures
- Above-average load capacity
Applications include being used as construction wires or in shading for greenhouses. With greenhouses getting bigger, you must securely fix the foil sheeting without burdening the entire greenhouse construction with too much weight and to prevent your sheet from fraying. Our XV500 and XV400 monofilament options provide a lightweight, elastic and durable solution for this. Its non-corrosive construction means the support wire will keep its smooth surface over time and will keep your greenhouse film securely to the substructure.
Another application it is suitable for is Oyster Farming – these Agricultural Support Wires can manage oysters more efficiently and economically than traditional methods which lead to higher yields, better quality and low associated maintenance costs. The Wire's resistance to saltwater makes it an excellent long-term investment in this area.
Agricultural Wiring can also be used for modern water management with water depots being protected by high-tech geotextiles fixed with monofilament agricultural wire. The durable and smooth surface of the wire and its ability for retention keep the fabric and construction safe for a long time. The wire is also weather-resistant being able to sustain a high load from heavy rain due to its elasticity.
