Product Information
Full details
The KM Elite Deluxe Haynet is designed for horse owners looking to improve their equine's feeding habits by promoting a slower, more natural grazing pace. Ideal for use in stables, horseboxes, and pastures, this 40-inch net significantly reduces hay waste and discourages gorging, though users should note its 6.5kg capacity may require multiple fillings per day for horses with high caloric needs.

FAQs
What is the total capacity of the KM Elite Deluxe Haynet?
The haynet has a capacity of approximately 6.5kg of hay.
What size are the holes in the net?
The holes are 2 inches in size, specifically designed to encourage a slower, more natural grazing pace.
Can this be used for horse trailers?
Yes, the durable construction and the large bottom tie-back ring make it an excellent choice for horseboxes and trailers.
Is the material safe for horses?
The net is designed for durability and daily use; however, always monitor your horse to ensure they are using the equipment safely.
How do I ensure the net lasts as long as possible?
Avoid overloading past the 6.5kg capacity and ensure the net is not snagged on sharp objects in the stable.
Are the rings resistant to weather?
The rings are finished with high-quality chrome to resist rust, making them suitable for stable and field use.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty pulling the top rings to open the net
Ensure the hay is packed loosely rather than tightly compressed, and check that no rings are tangled before filling.
Net moves or shifts too much while the horse eats
Use the bottom tie-back ring to secure the base of the net to an additional anchor point, keeping it taut.
Surface rust appearing on rings
While chrome-finished, ensure the net is kept dry when not in use. If rust spots appear, wipe clean with a dry cloth and consider applying a light protective oil.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Promotes slower digestion and healthier grazing behavior
- Highly durable construction suitable for daily use
- Minimizes hay wastage in stables and trailers
- Easy to fill and secure thanks to specialized ring design
Cons
- 6.5kg capacity may need frequent refilling for some horses
- Standard 2-inch holes may not be suitable for horses requiring extreme restriction

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, pull the haynet wide using the top rings and load your desired amount of hay. When securing, utilize the large bottom ring to attach the net to a stable wall or trailer tie-point at an appropriate height for the horse. For maintenance, check the net periodically for any loose strands or structural damage. If the net becomes soiled, it can be shaken out or hosed down with water; ensure it is completely dry before storing it for long periods to maintain the integrity of the cord material and the chrome finish on the rings.
