What happens here
The installer demonstrates how to repair a broken line in the fence using crimp sleeves and a new piece of high-tensile wire. After cutting away the old knot and any damaged wire, a new piece of wire is crimped onto one side of the broken section. The process involves using a crimping tool to secure the crimp sleeve tightly around the wire. The new wire is then connected to the other side of the broken section using another crimp sleeve, effectively restoring the integrity of the fence line. It's essential to crimp the sleeves completely to ensure a strong and lasting repair.
Goal: Restore integrity to a broken fence line.
