PolyPlus Wire is crafted with a 12.5 gauge high tensile wire that is embedded in a thick polymer coating for a safer and more visible wire fence. The PolyPlus Wire has a smooth safety-finish with an outside diameter is 5/16". PolyPlus Wires are designed with an impressive minimum break strength of 1,400 lbs per wire and features the ability to flex back into place after impact, reducing the chances of serious injury to animals and damage to the fence. PolyPlus is available in white, black, and brown colors and is only sold in 1,320LF rolls. You may mix and match Centaur fencing configurations for your needs. PolyPlus can be installed on its own or combined with rails depending on the look you are trying to achieve. Centaur Fencing System - Configurations (PDF)
PolyPlus wire is installed in a continuous loop and can be attached to T-posts with clips or wood posts with barbed staples. The fence is tightened using tensioners. The continuous loop system is more flexible than rigid individual rails, allowing the PolyPlus Wire to slip or move freely to adsorb and dissipate any impacts down the entire length of fence. Basic maintenance for this fence is simple: just re-tension the strands over the years.
The Centaur PolyPlus Safety Coated High Tensile Wire is a virtually maintenance-free fence system. PolyPlus Wires will retain their beautiful appearance for many years and will not rust, warp, rot, peel, chip, stretch, fade, shatter, or splinter! The Centaur PolyPlus Wires are QUV tested by using an accelerated weatherometer that mimics a lifetime of wear in a short time and test results near the 20 year age show the wires in near-perfect condition! This is why Centaur is confident in offering a limited lifetime warranty of 20 years! The Centaur PolyPlus Safety Coated High Tensile Wire fence is a more economical and safer alternative than barbed wire or uncoated high tensile wire fence.

Installation Notes:
The wire strands can be installed on T-posts or round/square wood posts that are set 8'-12' apart. Wire strands span the entire fence line from end to end or end to break in the fence line. For longer stretches, Wire Links are available to splice together the connection between two wire segments.
For high tensile wire fencing, we recommend bracing your terminal sections (gate post, end posts, corner posts) to keep from pulling your posts out of alignment.
20 Year Limited Warranty - See instruction manuals for warranty details.
Fact is, Centaur® builds an amazingly durable fence material. Properly installed, it will last as long or longer than we say it will, and longer than any competing product. Thus, the manufacturer is quick to warranty against all manufacturer's defects, including cracking, peeling, chipping, and discoloration due to adverse weather. The only problems ever encountered by our customers are due to incorrect installation. If you plan on doing it yourself, don't cut corners. Follow our recommendations to the letter. This way you'll be sure to get a fence you're absolutely delighted with for years to come.
Line post spacing is best determined by the diameter of your pen. With a larger diameter, wider spacing can be used. However, closer line post spacing increases the overall strength of your pen. For bracing, refer to the Instruction Manual provided for details.
Note: All pen posts must be a length of 8′ and concreted during installation.
The range recommended for line post spacing is 8′ to 12′. A layout with closer line post spacing increases the overall strength of your fence.
Lay of the land and animal containment needs can help determine the best post spacing requirements for your project.
Lay of the Land:
For example, a perimeter on level to gentle terrain may use up to a 12′ space between line posts. Irregular terrain may require less distance between posts to better customize the perimeter for your project.
Animal Containment:
The size and temperament of your animals will help determine your needs. For example, an area designed to contain a stallion may require a four rail fence with eight foot post spacing while another for mares may only require three rails with a twelve foot post spacing.
Example below based on a Four Rail System on a typical 55″ post height (installed on level terrain):
Please review the Installation Manual for more information.
A One-Way Barrel Tensioner can maintain up to 660′ of fence on level terrain. A Two-Way Barrel Tensioner can maintain up to 660′ of fence in each direction on level terrain for a combined length of 1,320′.
Each barrel tensioner is capable of tensioning 660′ of straight rail, but you must deduct 100′ from that length for every directional and elevation change.
Centaur Fencing Systems can be customized to suit your perimeter needs. You may either install three to four Flexible Rails, five Safety Coated Wires, or a combination of Rail and Coated Wire.
See the Centaur Fencing System fence combination information in the Planning Guide for more information.

Delivery time was extremely long. No communication from Hoover about expected delivery and no apparent way to track the order. Very disappointing customer service.
