Product Information

Full details

The Premier Equine Buster 50g Turnout Rug is designed for horse owners seeking a durable, lightweight solution for unpredictable transitional weather. Featuring high-grade 840 denier ballistic nylon and a 50g thermo-bonded fill, it offers an ideal balance of waterproof protection, breathability, and light warmth. While this rug provides excellent coverage and hygiene through its anti-static and antibacterial lining, owners should note that its lightweight insulation is specifically tailored for mild conditions rather than extreme winter cold.

FAQs

Can this rug be used with other liners?

Yes, this rug features integrated attachment points that allow it to be used with compatible Premier Equine liners for extra warmth.

How do I wash the rug?

Hand wash or machine wash on a cool, delicate cycle using a non-detergent soap designed for technical waterproof fabrics. Always air dry.

Is the neck cover removable?

Yes, the Snug-Fit neck cover is designed to be easily attached and detached to suit changing weather conditions.

Does the 50g fill provide enough warmth for winter?

The 50g fill is considered a lightweight rug, intended for transition months. It is generally not sufficient for harsh winter conditions without an additional liner.

How do I measure my horse for this rug?

Measure from the center of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock (the vertical line just behind the tail) to determine the correct size.

Are the materials safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, the rug features an anti-static and antibacterial polyester lining that is gentle on the coat and helps prevent skin issues.

Troubleshooting

Rug slipping to one side

Check that the surcingle straps are adjusted evenly and have not become too loose over time.

Neck cover sagging or falling

Ensure the velcro or attachment points are securely fastened and that the neck cover is adjusted for the specific neck length of the horse.

Moisture buildup on the underside

Verify that the horse is not being over-rugged; if the horse is too warm, they will sweat, causing internal dampness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rugged 840 denier exterior for long-lasting durability
  • Effective dual-membrane waterproof and breathable performance
  • Snug-Fit neck design provides superior protection against the elements
  • Anti-static lining prevents hair buildup and skin irritation
  • Versatile design with integrated liner attachment points

Cons

  • Light 50g fill is not suitable for freezing winter temperatures
  • Requires careful adjustment of neck straps to ensure the Snug-Fit system works as intended
  • Rug must be laundered regularly to maintain the integrity of the breathable membrane

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the rug, place the blanket over the horse's back, then secure the front chest closures followed by the surcingle straps to ensure a snug fit. Attach the Snug-Fit neck cover using the provided fastenings, ensuring it sits securely without hindering the horse's ability to graze.

Care Instructions:

  • Regularly remove mud and debris with a soft brush to ensure the breathable membrane remains functional.
  • For deep cleaning, use specialized horse rug detergent and avoid high-heat drying, which can damage the waterproof coating.
  • Always inspect stainless steel hardware for any debris that might affect the clip function.
  • When not in use, ensure the rug is completely dry before storing it in a cool, ventilated place to prevent mold.
