Less Material, Same Protection
With fewer strands twisted, the wire maintains its strength while requiring less weight. Installers can stretch and tension it faster using basic tools.
Star Picket Compatible

Faster Completion = Lower Labor Cost
Less labor time means lower manpower cost, especially on long fencing lines like:
