No, these Lorina rubber rings are specifically designed to fit Lorina Peacock Safety Irons only. They are not compatible with other stirrup brands or styles.
How often should I replace the rubber rings?
It is recommended to inspect the rubber rings regularly. Replace them if you notice any signs of wear, such as cracking, stretching, or if they no longer release the foot under pressure as expected. This can vary depending on usage frequency and environmental conditions.
What is the main safety benefit of these rings?
The main safety benefit is that they are designed to release the rider's foot from the stirrup under pressure, which can help prevent serious injury in the event of a fall.
Can I use these rings on stirrups for adults?
While they are popular with younger riders, the safety release feature can be beneficial for riders of all ages and experience levels. Their primary limitation is the single-size availability for the stirrup they are designed for.

If a rubber ring breaks, it should be replaced immediately with a new one to ensure the safety features of the stirrup remain functional.
