FAQ

Biothane halters are available in the most common equine sizing categories to ensure a proper fit for nearly any horse. Sizes usually include:

  • Mini — For miniature horses and very small breeds.
  • Pony — Fits most ponies and smaller-headed young horses.
  • Cob — Ideal for Arabians, Morgans, and refined-headed horses.
  • Horse/Full — Standard size for most average adult horses.
  • Draft — For large draft breeds or horses with very large heads.

Sizing may vary slightly by brand, so checking individual measurements (noseband, crownpiece, throatlatch) is recommended.

How do I clean a Biothane halter?

Rinse with water, then wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For heavy dirt, soak briefly in warm soapy water. Learn more about cleaning Biothane.

Can I use harsh cleaners?

Avoid bleach, abrasive scrubbers, or solvent‑based products—they can damage the coating. See safe cleaning products.

Will Biothane crack or fade?

Biothane is UV‑resistant and won’t crack like leather, but long‑term sun exposure may slightly dull colour. Explore Biothane durability.

Is Biothane waterproof?

Yes—Biothane is fully waterproof and won’t absorb sweat, mud, or rain. Read about waterproof gear.

How do I disinfect it?

Use mild antibacterial soap or a diluted vinegar solution. Rinse thoroughly. Check disinfecting tips.

Can I store it outdoors?

Short‑term is fine, but long‑term storage is best in a cool, dry place to preserve colour and hardware. See tack storage tips.

  • Are Biothane halters strong — Yes. Biothane has a break strength of 450–1000+ kg depending on width and hardware, making it comparable to or stronger than leather and nylon.
  • Do they stretch — No. Biothane does not stretch, even when wet, which keeps the fit consistent.
  • Are they safe for turnout — Yes, when used with breakaway hardware. Without breakaway points, they are very strong and may not release under pressure.
  • How do they handle weather — Biothane is waterproof, UV‑resistant, and mold‑proof, so it stays strong in all conditions.
  • Will the colour fade — Very slowly. Biothane holds colour far better than nylon or leather.
  • Are they easy to clean — Yes. Just wipe with water; mud, sweat, and grime don’t soak in.
  • Is the hardware strong — Stainless steel and solid brass hardware offer high tensile strength and rust resistance.
  • Polyester Webbing — The inner core that gives Biothane its strength and tear‑resistance.
  • TPU Coating — A thermoplastic polyurethane layer that makes it soft, flexible, and waterproof.
  • PVC Coating — An alternative coating option that adds durability and a smooth finish.
  • Non‑Toxic Materials — Biothane is food‑grade safe, vegan, and free from harmful chemicals.
  • Vegan Leather Alternative — Looks like leather but performs better outdoors.

⭐ Why It Matters
