Product Information
Full details
The Hy Lead Rope in Grey is designed for horse owners and handlers who prioritize both durability and comfort when managing their equine companions. Constructed from high-quality, sturdy cotton, this 2-metre lead offers a reliable grip and long-lasting performance for daily yard tasks. While it provides excellent strength for routine handling, users should note that as a cotton-based product, it requires proper storage in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the fibers over time.

FAQs
Is this lead rope machine washable?
While cotton is durable, we recommend hand washing to prevent damage to the Wednesbury clip and excessive wear on the stitching.
What is the total length of the rope?
The Hy Lead Rope measures 2 metres in length.
Does the clip rust easily?
The Wednesbury clip is made from high-quality materials designed for equestrian use, but regular cleaning after contact with salt or mud is recommended to maintain its condition.
Is this rope suitable for horses that pull?
The extra thick design offers superior grip, but all lead ropes should be used as part of a safe handling practice and never for tying a horse that is known to panic or pull back.
Does it come in other colours?
Yes, the Hy Lead Rope range includes multiple colour options, though this specific model is the Extra Thick version in Grey.
Troubleshooting
Clip feels stiff during operation
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the spring mechanism of the clip and work it open and closed several times.
Rope feels rough or stiff after drying
Once dry, manually flex and twist the cotton rope to loosen the fibers and restore its natural softness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Hy Lead Rope is straightforward: simply attach the Wednesbury clip to the rings on your horse's headcollar. It is fully compatible with all standard equine headcollars and halters. To ensure the longevity of the rope, store it in a clean, dry place after use; keeping it out of constant direct sunlight will prevent the cotton from fading, and shaking off mud or debris after use will keep the fibers in optimal condition. If the lead becomes heavily soiled, it should be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried away from direct heat sources to prevent the cotton from shrinking.
