7 reasons why Gallagher's Turbostar tape is the safest in the world

At Gallagher, the safety of your animals comes first. Ever since Bill Gallagher invented the first Gallagher energiser in New Zealand in 1938, Gallagher has been a leader in developing products to provide optimal animal protection. Not for nothing is the mission statement: ‘Protect what matters most’.

Let's jump to 1985. After extensive research and testing, Gallagher is the first in the world to launch the 40 mm tape. Its visibility and large contact area make it the perfect solution for horse electric fences. Since then, Gallagher has constantly further developed the 40 mm tape. There are now countless variants on the market, but one stands out head and shoulders above the rest: the Gallagher Turbostar tape.

This is why Turbostar tape is the safest tape for your horse:

1. 40x more conductive than standard tape

With a low resistance of 0.04Ω/m, Turbostar tape is highly conductive. This ensures that the impulse from the energiser is spread powerfully and evenly over the entire fence, even on long fences.

2. Heavily reinforced upper and lower wire

This prevents breaking when damaged and ensures little stretch. A fence that is, and stays, well-tensioned is safer for horses and requires less maintenance.


3. Live edge-to-edge

Conductive stainless steel and copper wires are spread throughout the tape, ensuring effective shock on all surfaces. This prevents horses from rubbing against the tape, as they know that only the middle is under power.

4. Unique Windflow structure

With its open structure, TurboStar is less sensitive to wind, so it flaps less and is less likely to be damaged. This also prevents horses from getting spooked.

5. Copper turbo guides in the middle

The guided wires in the middle of the tape ensure optimal conduction and are interconnected.

6. 7-year UV guarantee

An electric fence is exposed to sun, wind and rain all year round. Polywires can quickly become brittle due to UV light. Turbostar tape uses highly UV-resistant plastic, making it last much longer than standard tape.

7. Matching insulators

To make the Turbostar tape even more durable and safe, special Turbostar insulators have been developed, recognisable by the orange rubbers. These are moulded into the insulator so they do not come loose. As a result, the tape clings extra well in the insulator and scuffs less. There are several varieties of insulators, from strain insulators to intermediary insulators, and from insulators for wooden posts to insulators for the Gallagher line post post.
