Default electric-fence wire?

I tried 16 gauge Al wire and it was too soft & weak for anything. I
use it for bundling stuff now.
I would sure hate to depend on that to keep the bull next door!

It's solid and uncoated- no core. Looks like aluminum (I've worked with
stainless steel wire and this wire ain't steel). Quite flexible. And the
price was right.

It'll probably be okay with 50kV applied to it.
