Introducing the Gallagher Direct Current Electric Fence Wire in a 250 ft spool, finished in sleek silver. Crafted from 17-gauge aluminum, this conductor is engineered to deliver steady performance across outdoor fencing setups while staying lighter and easier to handle than heavier alternatives. A Gallagher staple, this DC-wire is designed to fit seamlessly with your existing Gallagher energizer system to help you secure livestock and manage grazing with confidence.
Why 17-gauge aluminum matters
The 17-gauge aluminum construction strikes a practical balance between strength and flexibility, reducing the effort required to string the line along posts and turnaround corners. Aluminum provides natural resistance to outdoor corrosion, so you’ll spend less time maintaining the wire and more time focusing on your operation. The silver finish stays visible for easy inspection and alignment along long fence runs.
