FAQs
Is this surcingle one size fits all?
It is fully adjustable to fit a wide range of horse sizes, though it is best suited for standard equestrian dimensions.
Can I machine wash the Hy Elasticated Surcingle?
It is recommended to hand-wash with mild soap to ensure the hardware and elastic fibers are not damaged by aggressive machine cycles.
What is the primary material used?
The product is made from high-quality, durable elasticated webbing designed for equine use.
Does it come in other colors?
This specific model is available in a classic Blue finish.
How do I know if it is too tight?
You should be able to slide a flat hand easily between the surcingle and the horse's side; if you cannot, it is too tight.
Troubleshooting
Surcingle keeps slipping to one side
Verify that the surcingle is centered and the tension is balanced on both sides of the horse.
Buckles are difficult to adjust
Clean any dirt or grit out of the buckle mechanisms and ensure the strap is not twisted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Hy Elasticated Surcingle, drape it over the horse's back and attach the buckle fittings to the desired tension, ensuring it is snug but not tight enough to interfere with the horse's rib expansion. It is compatible with most standard training aids and lunge gear. To care for your product, brush off mud or hair after every session to prevent buildup in the hardware. If the material becomes heavily soiled, hand-wash with mild, equine-safe detergent and air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the elastic fibers.
