FAQs

What is the fill weight of this turnout rug?

This rug has a 50g polyfill insulation, providing a light layer of warmth.

Is this rug suitable for very cold winter weather?

The 50g fill is best suited for mild to moderate conditions. For colder weather, it is designed to be used with compatible WeatherBeeta liners for added warmth.

How do I determine the correct size for my horse?

Refer to the WeatherBeeta sizing guide, typically based on the measurement from the center of the chest to the rear end of the rug. Ensure a proper fit to maximize comfort and effectiveness.

Can this rug be washed in a washing machine?

It is recommended to use a specialized rug wash and follow the care instructions carefully. Washing in a standard domestic washing machine may damage the rug's waterproof and breathable properties. Hand washing or professional cleaning is often preferred.

What does '600 denier' refer to?

Denier (D) is a unit of measurement for the density of fabric fibers. A higher denier number, like 600D, indicates a stronger, more durable fabric that is more resistant to wear and tear.

What is the purpose of the side gusset?

The traditional side gusset is designed to allow the horse greater freedom of movement in the shoulder and foreleg area, preventing restriction when grazing or moving.

How does the liner system work?

The liner system involves attaching separate liners of varying weights to the inside of the turnout rug using built-in loops or fastenings. This allows you to easily adjust the total insulation of the rug based on the weather.

Troubleshooting

Rug is leaking water

Check the integrity of the waterproof coating. Ensure all seams are intact. Re-waterproof the rug using a specialized product if necessary. Make sure the rug is not worn thin in areas.

Horse appears too cold

Increase the insulation by adding a WeatherBeeta liner. Ensure the rug is correctly sized and fitted to prevent drafts.

Rug is causing rubs or sores

Verify the rug size and fit. Ensure the surcingles and leg straps are not too tight. Clean the rug to remove any abrasive debris. Check the condition of the lining.

Buckles or touch tape are difficult to fasten

Clean the buckles and touch tape area to remove dirt or debris that may be interfering with the closure mechanism.

Rip or tear in the outer shell

For small tears, use a specialized rip-stop repair kit or patch. For significant damage, consult a professional rug repair service.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable 600 denier ripstop outer shell resists tears.
  • Waterproof and breathable for all-weather comfort.
  • Smooth lining helps maintain coat condition.
  • Designed for freedom of movement.
  • Compatible with WeatherBeeta liners for adaptable warmth.

Cons

  • 50g fill may be insufficient for very cold weather on its own.
  • Relies on separate liner system for significant insulation.
  • Touch tape on front closure may wear over time.
  • Reflective elements are for visibility, not primary safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the rug is the correct size for your horse. A properly fitting rug is essential for comfort and effectiveness.
  2. Lay the rug over your horse's back, aligning the front closure.
  3. Secure the twin buckle front closure, adjusting the touch tape for a snug but not tight fit.
  4. Fasten the twin low cross surcingles, ensuring they are firm enough to keep the rug in place.
  5. Attach the adjustable and removable leg straps, ensuring they are secure and comfortably positioned.

Compatibility:

This rug is compatible with the WeatherBeeta liner system, allowing for customizable warmth by adding different weight liners (sold separately).

Care:

  • Clean the rug regularly to maintain its waterproof and breathable properties. Remove loose debris with a soft brush.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a specialized rug wash or a mild detergent in cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners.
  • Rinse thoroughly after washing.
  • Allow the rug to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Do not tumble dry.
  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated area when not in use.
