Product Information

Full details

The HKM PVC Girth -Pro Gel- is designed for equestrians who prioritize horse comfort and equipment durability. This girth provides an anatomical fit that minimizes pressure points while ensuring stability through its non-slip material. While it offers excellent functionality for daily training, riders should note that the synthetic material requires consistent cleaning to maintain its texture and grip properties over time.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this girth suitable for sensitive horses?

Yes, the anatomical shape and soft gel padding are specifically designed to reduce pressure points on sensitive horses.

Can I use this girth for jumping?

Yes, the D-rings allow you to attach training aids, and the non-slip material provides stability during jumping efforts.

How do I determine the correct size?

Measure your current girth from the end of the buckle to the end of the buckle on the opposite side to find the correct length for your horse.

Is the material waterproof?

The PVC exterior is water-resistant and durable, making it an excellent choice for rainy conditions.

Does the elastic side go on the left or right?

It is generally recommended to have the elastic side on the side you mount from, though personal preference and saddle design may dictate placement.

Troubleshooting

Girth sliding during exercise

Ensure the girth is tightened evenly on both sides and that the saddle tree width is appropriate for the horse's conformation.

Accumulation of dirt in gel texture

Use a soft brush with mild soap and water to gently scrub the surface before rinsing thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Anatomically contoured for enhanced range of motion
  • Gel padding effectively distributes pressure
  • Easy to wipe clean after rides
  • Elastic inserts allow for comfortable expansion
  • Sturdy D-rings for versatile equipment attachment

Cons

  • Synthetic PVC may be less breathable than leather
  • Requires regular checks for material fatigue
  • Strictly available in brown

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, ensure the girth is centered symmetrically under the horse. When tightening, always alternate sides to maintain even pressure.

Compatibility: This girth is compatible with most standard dressage and jumping saddles featuring long billets. It is available in various lengths (105cm to 145cm) to ensure a proper fit for diverse horse breeds and sizes.

Care Instructions:

  • After every ride, wipe down the inner gel surface with a damp cloth to remove sweat and debris.
  • Avoid using harsh industrial solvents on the PVC exterior as they may degrade the material surface.
  • Regularly inspect the elastic for signs of fraying or loss of tension and replace if elasticity is compromised.
