FAQs

What is the release threshold for the Medium size?

The safety release system is calibrated to break at approximately 58kg of pressure.

Can I use leather cleaners on this headcollar?

It is recommended to only use a soft cloth and warm water. Avoid strong chemicals or heavy soaps that could compromise the safety system.

Where is the safety mechanism located?

The safety release system is conveniently located on the right side of the headcollar.

Is the safety release a one-time use?

No, the system is designed to be reusable; if it releases, you can simply reset it, provided the components remain undamaged.

Is this headcollar suitable for long-term turnout?

Yes, it is designed for all-weather use, making it ideal for daily turnout, stable use, and travel.

Troubleshooting

Safety release keeps opening prematurely

Check the mechanism for debris or mud buildup; ensure it is properly snapped into the locked position and not obstructed.

Leather feels stiff or dry

Gently clean with a damp cloth and allow it to dry in a cool area. Avoid over-oiling as this may affect the structural integrity of the safety parts.

Safety mechanism will not click shut

Inspect the internal springs and plastic housing for damage or deformation; if the unit is damaged, replace the safety release component immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Scientifically tested release threshold for reliable safety
  • High-quality, durable materials suitable for all-weather use
  • Soft padding minimizes pressure points and rubbing
  • Easy to replace the safety mechanism after it has released

Cons

  • Requires monitoring to ensure the safety release is correctly engaged
  • Material requires specific care to maintain water-resistant properties
  • Replacement parts must be sourced directly from the manufacturer

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the Equilibrium Stellar, adjust the buckles on the headpiece to ensure there is enough clearance for a comfortable fit without being loose. The safety release system is located on the right side; ensure this is securely clicked into place before every use. For routine maintenance, wipe the leather with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with warm water. Crucially, avoid harsh soaps, leather oils, or heavy chemicals, as these can alter the integrity of the safety-release material and affect the calibrated break-point. Allow the headcollar to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from becoming brittle.
