This is the 6 line electric fence bracket in the straight pattern: a black square tube that stands upright, in line with the wall, with six bobbins fitted, one per line. It is the shorter partner to the 8 line straight bracket, for a six strand wall-top fence. If you want the lines to lean out over the wall, see the 6 line bottom bend; if you want it upright with a short kick at the top, the 6 line top bend. Some people call it a 6 wire bracket.
Straight, top bend or bottom bend?
All our 6 line square tube brackets come in three patterns. The straight bracket stands upright and keeps the fence in line with the wall. The top bend runs straight with a short bend at the top. The bottom bend bends near the base, so the whole line section leans out over the wall. Our 6 line 20m fence kit comes with nine of these brackets in the bend you choose.
Fixing it to the wall
Fixings are not included. On brick and concrete our kits put these brackets up with 8 x 80mm nail-in anchors; on a steel post or frame use tek screws. At corners, ends, steps in the wall and gate posts, brace the bracket with the 750mm stay with sleeve and screws so the wire tension cannot pull it over.
Bobbins fitted
Six stepped bobbins come fitted, so there are no insulators to buy or fit. If one gets damaged later, we sell the flat bar bobbin insulator singly as a replacement.
Rules to know before you buy
In South Africa an electric fence must be installed and certified by a registered electric fence installer, who issues the certificate of compliance. Alectra supplies the equipment only. A fence on top of a wall must stand at least 1.5m above the ground, warning signs go at every gate and access point and no more than 10m apart, and angled brackets are fixed on the inside of the boundary wall, with the neighbour's consent if they lean into their property.
Pairs well with
For a home fence run it from the Nemtek Wizord 4i energizer; for a bigger property the Nemtek Merlin Stealth M18S. String it with 1.6mm aluminium fence wire and tension each line with a gold 8kg spring tensioner. Prefer a round rod to a tube? See the 6 line round bar bracket.
Key features
- Six lines on one bracket. The size for a six strand wall-top fence. Need more height? The 8 line straight bracket carries two more lines.
- Straight pattern. Stands upright and keeps the fence in line with the wall, with nothing leaning over the neighbour's side.
- Black square tube. Hollow square steel tube with a black finish.
- Bobbins come fitted. Six stepped bobbins are already on the bracket. Replacements are sold singly.
- Same tube as the bend versions. Mix straight, top bend and bottom bend brackets on one boundary as the wall and the neighbours allow.
- Takes the 750mm stay. Brace it at corners, ends, steps and gate posts with our 750mm stay with sleeve and screws.
- Used in our 6 line kit. The 6 line 20m fence kit comes with nine of these brackets in the bend you choose.

Questions people ask
The number of lines. The 6 line bracket carries six wires; the 8 line bracket carries eight and stands taller above the wall. Both are the same black square tube with the bobbins fitted.
The straight bracket stands upright in line with the wall. The top bend is straight with a short bend at the top. The bottom bend bends near the base so all the lines lean out over the wall. Angled brackets go on the inside of the boundary wall, so if the neighbour has not agreed to an overhang, the straight bracket is the safe choice.
Yes, six stepped bobbins are fitted. If one is damaged later, we sell the flat bar bobbin insulator singly as a replacement.
Fixings are not included. Our kits use 8 x 80mm nail-in anchors on brick and concrete. On steel posts and frames use tek screws.
A common guide is no more than 3m between brackets. Our 6 line 20m kit spaces nine brackets over 20m, which is 2.5m apart, and every corner, end, step and gate post gets its own bracket braced with a stay.
Yes. Line and wire mean the same thing here: one live or earth strand of the fence. We use line in the title because that is what most people search for.
You can buy the parts, but the fence must be installed and certified by a registered electric fence installer, who issues the certificate of compliance. Alectra supplies the equipment only.
