The New Longlife Plus™ wire has the heaviest zinc coating available. It has 50% more than class 3, is currently a lower cost alternative to Superlife, and will perform between the two lines on the graph shown here.
MAXIMUM STRENGTH WITH KNOTABILITY
- for easy construction
of all weights and styles of high tensile wire fences.
OVERALL COSTS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY
LOWER -
(up to 50% less) since less maintenance labor and less frequent
replacement is required:
- when
rusty wire is undesirable and affects property values,
- when
rusty wire will not be reused on new posts,
- when
corrosive environments exist from acid rain, nearby factories,
salt, or sprays,
- when
used for trellising crops where sprays are used and vegetation
traps moisture on wire.

*Wire
life estimate is for a humid environment without other corrosive
chemicals (it will last much longer in a dry climate) and
only about half as long in coastal and industrial environments
and when exposed to corrosive sprays and chemicals.
MAX-FLEX
wires all have heavy class 3 or 4 type coatings with a minimum
of 0.8 to 1.2 ounces per square foot of wire surface which equals about 40-60 microns
of thickness on the graph above. There are no comparable products to
MAX-FLEX Longlife Plus and Superlife Wires in the American fence wire market..
