Shires Heavy Duty Bungee Trailer Tie - 62cm Shock Absorbing Horse Tie with Panic Release Clip

Eliminate the risk of sudden jolts and "panic-pulls" with a tethering solution designed to move with your horse, not against them. The Shires Heavy Duty Bungee Trailer Tie provides the perfect balance of security and shock-absorbing flexibility to keep your equine partner calm and safe during transport or stable management.

Engineered for the rigors of the equestrian lifestyle, this heavy-duty tie features a high-tension bungee core encased in a durable, clear plastic tube to prevent fraying and wear. Whether you are navigating winding roads in a trailer or securing a horse in the wash rack, the "gentle resistance" technology reduces pressure on the poll and neck, fostering a more relaxed environment for even the most nervous travelers.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Shock-Absorbing Bungee Core: Provides gentle, forgiving resistance to minimize stress on the horse's neck and poll during sudden movements or trailer stops.
• Dual-Safety Hardware: Equipped with a heavy-duty swivel trigger clip for secure attachment and a dedicated panic release (quick-release) clip for instant emergency disconnection.
• Protective Outer Casing: The bungee line is shielded by a clear plastic tube, significantly increasing durability and protecting the internal fibers against wear, tear, and friction.
• Optimal 62cm Length: Features a total unstretched length of 62cm (approx. 24.4 inches), providing the ideal distance to prevent horses from turning around while allowing natural head movement.
• Versatile Utility: Perfect for single-point tethering in trailers, yards, and stables, or purchased in pairs for a safer, more forgiving cross-tie setup.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Specifically designed to withstand the strength of large horses, ensuring long-lasting reliability in high-pressure transport environments.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How does the panic release clip work in an emergency?
A: The panic release clip is designed to attach directly to the headcollar; in the event of a struggle or emergency, a simple downward pull on the sliding mechanism instantly releases the horse, preventing potential injury and ensuring handler safety.

Q: Is this tie suitable for horses that tend to pull back when tied?
A: Yes, the heavy-duty bungee provides "give" that absorbs the shock of a pull. This elastic resistance often prevents the full panic response triggered by the rigid, unforgiving resistance of traditional nylon or chain ties.
