Martin Saddlery Heavy-Duty Oil-Tanned Leather Horse Pulling Collar with Stainless Steel Hardware - 2.25" Width

Secure your saddle and empower your horse with a pulling collar designed to handle the heaviest ranch work without sacrificing shoulder mobility. Engineered for maximum leverage and superior stability, this heavy-duty gear ensures your horse stays comfortable and focused whether you are roping cattle or navigating steep mountain trails.

Crafted from premium, oil-tanned leather, this 2.25-inch pulling collar is built to withstand the rigors of daily ranch life and harsh weather conditions. By attaching directly to the saddle swells rather than the weaker D-rings, it provides a superior mechanical advantage for dragging loads, while the contoured design sits perfectly above the point of the shoulder to prevent restriction and ensure the "two-finger" clearance needed for unrestricted breathing.

Key Features & Specifications:

• 2.25-Inch Optimal Width: Distributes pressure evenly across the chest to prevent rubbing and soreness during high-torque maneuvers and heavy pulls.
• Premium Oil-Tanned Leather: Offers exceptional durability and weather resistance with a high oil content that remains supple and molds to your horse’s shape.
• Swell-Attachment Design: Engineered to pull from the saddle pommel for maximum leverage and stability, protecting your saddle hardware from extreme tension.
• Enhanced Shoulder Freedom: Contoured to sit above the point of the shoulder, allowing your horse a full range of motion during a gallop or heavy drag.
• Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Features heavy-duty stainless steel buckles and rings designed to withstand moisture and the demands of outdoor work.
• Fully Adjustable Fit: Multiple adjustment points on the tug straps and center breast strap ensure a precise fit for horses ranging from 1,000 to 1,300 lbs.
• Integrated Down Strap: Includes a heavy-duty connector strap to the cinch to keep the collar centered and prevent it from riding up toward the windpipe.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How does this pulling collar improve my horse's performance compared to a standard breastcollar?
A: Unlike traditional breastcollars that can restrict the shoulders or press against the windpipe, our pulling collar sits higher and attaches to the swells. This provides better leverage for pulling tasks and ensures your horse can move and breathe freely even when leaning into a heavy load.

Q: Is this collar durable enough for daily ranch work and roping?
A: Absolutely. The 2.25-inch width is the "goldilocks" size for ranch versatility—heavy enough for dragging calves and logs, yet streamlined enough for mountain trail stability. The premium leather and stainless steel hardware are specifically chosen for their long-term durability in working environments.
