Aluminium Fencing Wire ALU GUARD – reliable power for your electric fence

The Aluminium Fencing Wire ALU GUARD from AKO is built for anyone who needs a dependable electric fence over long distances. Its very high conductivity, up to 4 times better than conventional iron wire, keeps fence voltage consistent even across large paddocks.

Thanks to its lightweight design – up to 2/3 lighter than iron wire – the wire is quick and easy to handle during installation. The addition of magnesium gives it an increased breaking load, so your fence stays secure under pressure from animals, wind or vegetation. As an aluminium wire, it also forms a natural protective oxide layer that guards against corrosion for long-lasting outdoor use.
