Waldhausen Flexible Rubber Bar for Horses
Description
Waldhausen Flexible Rubber Bar
The Waldhausen Flexible Rubber Bar is a schooling bar made from high quality polyurethane that bends and flexes rather than staying rigid. It is designed for horse owners, riding schools and livery yards who want a lightweight, wipe-clean bar for everyday use around the arena, yard and stable.
The bar has a thickness of 1.5cm and a ring width of 7cm, giving it a slim, easy-to-handle profile that is simple to carry, set up and store. It is best for riders who want a flexible alternative to a solid timber bar for regular schooling and groundwork setups.
