Full details
The Hy Extra Thick Lead Rope in green is designed for horse owners and handlers who prioritize durability and reliable control during daily stable routines. Its primary benefit is the combination of heavy-duty cotton construction and a robust Wednesbury clip, providing peace of mind during lead-outs or grooming sessions, though users should note that the extra thickness may feel bulkier in the hand compared to standard-width ropes.

FAQs
What is the length of this lead rope?
This lead rope measures exactly 2 metres.
Is the clip easy to operate with gloves on?
Yes, the Wednesbury clip is designed for easy manipulation, making it suitable for use with riding or yard gloves.
Can I machine wash the rope?
It is recommended to hand wash the rope in mild detergent to avoid damage to the clip and fraying of the cotton ends.
Is the green colour permanent?
The material is colour-fast, but prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight may cause minor fading over long periods.
Does this rope come with a matching headcollar?
This listing is for the lead rope only, though it is compatible with most standard equestrian headcollars.
Troubleshooting
Clip is sticking or difficult to open
Clear any dirt or debris from the hinge and apply a small amount of dry lubricant or silicone spray.
Cotton rope feels stiff after washing
Ensure the rope is fully dried, then flex the rope back and forth in your hands to soften the fibres.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use, simply attach the Wednesbury clip to the lower ring of your horse's headcollar. Ensure the clip is fully closed after attachment. For care, the rope should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent mildew buildup within the cotton fibres. If the rope becomes muddy, it can be hand-washed with mild detergent and warm water; hang it to air dry completely away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the material.
