1. Product Overview

The cattle fence, also known as farm fence, field fence, rural fence, sheep fence, goat fence, or hinge joint fence, is a specialized enclosure solution designed for livestock management. It serves as a reliable barrier to define activity areas for cattle, sheep, and other grazing animals, playing a crucial role in standardizing breeding spaces, protecting farmland, and ensuring the orderly operation of pastoral and agricultural sites. Whether used on large – scale farms, rural pastures, or to safeguard crop fields, this fence provides a durable and practical fencing option.

2. Material and Construction

2.1 Wire Material

The fence is constructed using high – quality hot – dipped galvanized wire or electric – galvanized wire.

Hot – dipped galvanized wire: Features a high zinc content, typically around 220g/㎡. This thick zinc coating offers exceptional corrosion resistance, enabling the fence to withstand the harsh conditions of outdoor environments, including exposure to moisture, sunlight, and varying temperatures over an extended period.
Electric – galvanized wire: Has a relatively lower zinc content of about 40g/㎡. While still providing a certain level of rust protection, it offers a more cost – effective option for those with budget constraints or for applications where extreme long – term corrosion resistance is not the primary requirement.

2.2 Structural Parameters

Length: The standard length of the cattle fence is 50m, which is convenient for large – scale fencing projects and ensures continuous enclosure without frequent joints.
Height: Available in multiple height options – 1.2m, 1.5m, and 1.8m. These different heights can be selected according to the type and size of livestock, as well as the specific management needs of the farm. For example, a 1.8m height may be preferred for containing larger and more active animals like cattle, while a 1.2m height could suffice for smaller livestock such as sheep.
Wire Diameter: The fence adopts a dual – wire diameter design, with an inner wire of 2mm and an edge wire of 2.5mm. This combination ensures both the overall flexibility and the edge strength of the fence. The inner wire provides the necessary pliability for easy installation and adaptation to different terrains, while the thicker edge wire enhances the resistance to impact and pulling forces, preventing the fence from being easily damaged by livestock.
Mesh Size: The uniform mesh size of 15cm * 15cm is carefully designed. It is small enough to prevent livestock from getting their heads or bodies stuck, ensuring the safety of the animals, while also being large enough to allow for good air circulation and visibility, which is beneficial for the health and management of the livestock.

3. Performance Advantages

3.1 Strong Toughness and Impact Resistance

The cattle fence exhibits excellent toughness, allowing it to absorb and disperse the impact forces generated by livestock collisions. This anti – impact property ensures that the fence remains intact even under the frequent activities of large animals like cattle, reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements.

3.2 Corrosion Resistance and Weather Resistance

Thanks to the galvanized wire material (especially the hot – dipped galvanized option), the fence demonstrates superior corrosion resistance. It can effectively resist the 侵蚀 of rain, snow, and humidity in various climates, as well as the damage caused by ultraviolet rays. This weather – resistant feature ensures a long service life, making it a cost – effective investment for farmers.

3.3 Wind and Rain Protection

The dense mesh structure and proper height of the fence provide effective protection against wind and rain. It can reduce the impact of strong winds on the livestock and the internal environment of the farm, and also prevent excessive rainwater from directly flooding the breeding area, helping to maintain a relatively stable and comfortable living environment for the animals.

4. Matching Columns (Posts)

To enhance the stability and integrity of the cattle fence system, specially designed posts are available.

4.1 Material and Coating

The posts are made of PVC – coated galvanized material. The galvanized interior provides strong structural support and rust resistance, while the PVC coating on the surface further improves the corrosion resistance and aesthetic appearance, making it blend well with the farm environment.

4.2 Specifications and Shapes

Length Options: The posts come in a variety of lengths, including 4feet, 5feet, 6feet, 7feet, 8feet, 9feet, and 10feet. This wide range of lengths allows for flexible installation according to different fence heights and terrain conditions.
Shape Variations: There are two main shapes – T – type and Y – type columns. The different shapes can be selected based on specific installation requirements and the expected stress conditions of the fence. For example, the Y – type column may offer better stability in some complex terrains.

4.3 Performance Features

Sturdy Structure and Corrosion Resistance: The posts have a robust structure that can firmly support the cattle fence, ensuring the overall stability of the enclosure system. The PVC – coated galvanized material also endows them with excellent corrosion resistance, matching the service life of the fence.
Diverse Sizes and Customization: With a wide range of sizes and the ability to be customized, the posts can be tailored to the specific needs of different farms. Whether it is a small – scale family farm or a large – scale commercial pasture, suitable post sizes can be obtained to meet the fencing requirements.

5. Application Scenarios

5.1 Livestock Breeding

The cattle fence is widely used in the breeding of cattle, sheep, and other livestock. It can be used to define the activity 范围 of the animals, separate different groups (such as separating adult cattle from calves, or sheep from goats), and also help in the management of feeding, milking, and other daily operations.

5.2 Farmland and Pasture Protection

It is an ideal choice for protecting farmland and pastures. By enclosing the boundaries, it can prevent livestock from entering and damaging the crops in the farmland, and also help to manage the grazing range in the pasture, avoiding over – grazing and protecting the ecological balance of the grassland.

5.3 Agricultural and Pastoral Zone Division

In large – scale agricultural and pastoral areas, the cattle fence, in combination with the matching posts, can be used to divide different functional zones, such as breeding areas, storage areas, and management areas. This zone division helps to improve the operational efficiency of the farm and the management level of the pastoral area.

In conclusion, the cattle fence, along with its matching posts, provides a comprehensive, durable, and flexible enclosure solution for livestock management and farm protection. Its excellent material properties, structural design, and performance advantages make it an indispensable tool for modern agricultural and pastoral operations. Whether you are a small – scale farmer or a large – scale agricultural enterprise, this cattle fence system can meet your enclosure needs and contribute to the efficient and orderly development of your breeding business.
