Tornado Torus Equi Horse Fencing

Tornado Torus Equi Horse Fencing is a premium high tensile fencing solution designed specifically for horse paddocks, equestrian facilities, foal areas, perimeter fencing and mixed grazing. Manufactured in Britain from high tensile galvanised steel wire, Tornado Torus horse fencing provides a strong, durable and low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber post and rail fencing. The high tensile wire can be strained tighter than mild steel, allowing fewer intermediate posts to be used in suitable installations and helping to reduce installation time and labour requirements.

The range includes specialist configurations for foals, smaller horses and larger horses, with close vertical wire spacing designed to help reduce the risk of hooves becoming caught in the mesh. The continuous vertical stay wires and high-pressure bonded Torus knot create a strong, smooth connection without sharp protruding edges. The Torus knot is stronger than a traditional hinge-joint knot, while the close mesh construction provides a secure and dependable barrier for equestrian environments.

Tornado Torus Equi fencing is also designed for low maintenance, with high tensile wire that is resistant to stretching caused by weathering. This helps the fence maintain its tension over time without the need for annual retightening. Pre-stripped ends make joining rolls easier, while the 100% recyclable galvanised steel construction provides a long-lasting fencing solution for paddocks, perimeter boundaries and mixed-animal grazing areas.

Horse & Foal Fencing Options

The Tornado Torus Equi range provides different configurations to suit horses of different sizes:

R13/120/5 – Equi Foal Horse Fence

Designed for foals and smaller horses, the R13/120/5 provides particularly close vertical spacing to help reduce the risk of hooves becoming caught in the fence. The strong high tensile construction and smooth Torus knot provide a secure, horse-friendly barrier.

R12/110/8 – Torus Equi Horse Fence

The R12/110/8 is a 1.1m-high horse fencing option with close vertical spacing and approximately 100mm x 75mm apertures. It is suitable for horse paddocks, perimeter fencing and mixed grazing where a strong and low-maintenance equestrian boundary is required.

R13/120/8 – Torus Horse Fence

The R13/120/8 provides a taller 1.2m-high configuration with 13 horizontal line wires and 80mm vertical stay spacing. This option is recommended for larger horses and applications where additional height and close mesh spacing are required.

High Tensile Construction for Faster Installation

Tornado Torus horse fencing is manufactured using high tensile wire that can be strained tighter than mild steel. This can allow fewer intermediate posts to be used, helping to speed up installation and reduce the amount of supporting infrastructure required.

While high tensile fencing requires the correct installation and tensioning technique, its ability to maintain tension makes it a highly practical choice for larger paddocks, equestrian facilities and long perimeter runs.

Designed for Horse Safety

Horse fencing needs to provide containment without creating unnecessary risks to the animals. The Torus Equi range features solid vertical stay wires and close vertical spacing, helping to reduce the possibility of hooves becoming caught in the mesh.

The Torus knot is smooth and unobtrusive, with no sharp protruding edges. It also provides a stronger connection than a traditional hinge-joint knot, making it particularly well suited to demanding equestrian environments.

Low-Maintenance Alternative to Timber Fencing

Tornado Torus horse fencing provides a durable alternative to traditional timber post and rail fencing. The high tensile wire is designed not to stretch significantly with weathering, meaning correctly installed fencing does not require the regular annual retightening associated with some traditional fencing systems.

For additional visibility and aesthetics, horse fencing can be combined with post and rail fencing or electric fencing where appropriate.

Dividing Paddocks

Where horses could be present on both sides of a dividing fence, double fencing with a suitable gap between the two fences can help reduce the risk of horses interacting across the boundary. Electric fencing can also be used as an additional visual and physical barrier where appropriate.
