Equi-Sential Nylon Clip Headcollar for Horses
Description
Equi-Sential Nylon Clip Headcollar — Everyday Strength for the Yard
The Equi-Sential Nylon Clip Headcollar is a hard-wearing everyday headcollar made from strong 1" nylon webbing with brass eyeletted adjustment holes and a throat lash clip fastening. It is best for riders and yards who need a reliable, no-nonsense headcollar for catching in, leading, tying up and general handling of horses and ponies.
It adjusts on both the headpiece and the noseband, so one headcollar can be fine-tuned to suit a changing shape or shared between similar animals on the yard.
Key Features

- Throat lash clip fastening — quick one-handed fitting and removal
- Adjustable on head and nose — a closer, more comfortable fit than fixed designs

How to Use
- Unclip the throat lash and hold the headcollar open with the noseband towards your horse.
- Slide the noseband gently over the muzzle and bring the headpiece up behind the ears.
- Fasten the throat lash clip on the near side, keeping the headpiece sitting flat behind the ears.
- Adjust the headpiece so the noseband sits roughly two fingers below the cheekbone, then adjust the noseband so two fingers fit comfortably underneath.
- Check the fit again after a few uses and inspect the webbing, stitching and clip before each use.

FAQ
What size headcollar do I need?
Measure from the cheek ring, over the nose, around and back to the starting point, then compare with the size options. As a rough guide, pony sizes suit native types and small ponies, cob suits most middleweight horses and full suits larger horses and warmbloods. Sizing is the main reason headcollars are returned, so check before ordering.
Is this headcollar adjustable?
Yes. It adjusts on both the headpiece and the noseband, giving useful leeway either side of a standard fit.
What is the headcollar made from?
Strong 1" nylon webbing with brass eyeletted adjustment holes and a throat lash clip fastening.
Can I leave it on in the field?
This is a standard fixed headcollar rather than a breakaway design, so it should not be left on an unsupervised horse in the field or stable.
How do I clean it?
Wipe clean or hand wash in cool water with a mild soap and air dry away from direct heat. Replace the headcollar if the webbing, stitching or clip shows damage.
What can I use it for?
Everyday catching in, leading, tying up for grooming, in-hand work and general yard handling.
