Product Information

Full details

The SecureFix Direct Rubber Coated Stall Chain is designed for horse owners and stable managers who need to maintain airflow in horse stalls or horse boxes while ensuring animals remain securely inside. Its primary benefit is the protective rubber coating that prevents the injuries often associated with bare metal chains. However, while the chain provides a robust physical barrier, users must ensure it is attached to sufficiently sturdy hardware on the stall frame to prevent accidental detachment by strong horses.

FAQs

What is the total length of the stall chain?

The overall length of the chain is 1140mm.

Is the rubber coating safe if the horse chews on it?

While the coating is durable, it is not intended to be a chew toy. If your horse is a chronic chewer, supervise them closely to prevent ingestion of rubber particles.

Can I use this for a horse that bolts?

This chain is a psychological and physical deterrent, but it is not a substitute for proper training. Always ensure the stall anchor points are strong enough to withstand sudden pressure.

Does the chain come with all mounting hardware?

Yes, it includes a Carbine Snap Hook, a Quick Release Panic Hook, and a Quick Link.

How thick is the rubber-coated chain?

The chain rubber thickness is 29.5mm.

Can this be used outdoors?

Yes, it is designed for stable environments; however, consistent exposure to extreme sun or moisture will eventually affect the lifespan of the rubber coating.

Troubleshooting

Chain is too long for the doorway

Check if your mounting eye-bolts can be moved or if an additional quick-link can be used to shorten the effective length.

Hooks are difficult to open

Clean any debris or dried mud from the spring mechanism of the snap hook and apply a silicone-based lubricant.

Rubber coating has a small tear

Repair small tears with weather-resistant rubber sealant or heavy-duty outdoor tape to prevent moisture from reaching the inner chain.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rubber coating prevents injury from sharp metal links
  • Includes all necessary hardware (snap hooks and quick links)
  • Durable construction suitable for daily stable use
  • Panic hook provides an essential safety feature for emergencies
  • Versatile use for both stall doors and horse boxes

Cons

  • Requires existing stable hardware for installation
  • Rubber sleeve may show wear over long-term exposure to weather
  • Not intended for horses prone to heavy leaning or aggressive chewing
  • Limited to a fixed length of 1140mm

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your stall frame has pre-installed eye-bolts or secure anchor points. Attach the Quick Link to one side of the frame, and use the Carbine Snap Hook or Panic Hook on the other for daily latching.

  • Compatibility: Compatible with most standard stable door frames that allow for bolt-in or hook-based attachments. Verify that your anchor points are load-bearing.
  • Care: Periodically inspect the rubber coating for cracks or tears. Wipe down with water and mild detergent if the chain becomes soiled with mud or bedding. Ensure the metal hooks are free of rust by applying a light lubricant if necessary.
