  • Patent number: 4684107
    Abstract: A fencing material composed of plastic-ensheathed metal wires and cooperating bracket elements; the fence material has a cross-sectional design including raised bead positions spaced apart by flat web sections; when the fence material is extruded, the bead or rib portions each ensheath a high tensile wire with the surface of the wire being roughened to enhance adhesion with the plastic; the fence material is mounted between fence posts by means of specially designed brackets that enclose the width of the fence material with the interior of the brackets having raised portions to conform to the cross sectional variations in dimensions of the fence material whereby slippage of the fence material whereby slippage of the fence material is prevented while spanning of substantially greater distances between posts and over varying terrain contours is made possible; the brackets have interlocking portions to prevent loss of complimentary bracket pieces in the event the bracket is loosened from a fence post during use.
