## Description and construction

Precision in every link. This 4 mm diameter chain lead, 60 cm long, is the perfect base for your own product line – the material and finish of the handle are entirely up to you. Designed for those who know exactly what they want. A metal chain does not yield like textile webbing, so signals go straight where they belong – to the horse.

    Stability and clarity: Thanks to firm guidance through the halter, the chain does not twist. The swivel (eye width 25 mm) prevents tangling and ensures completely smooth handling.
    Stable-ready durability: The chain performs even in demanding conditions. The links reliably resist chewing, abrasion, and changing weather.
    A versatile solution: You are not limited to one finished design. Attach your own webbing, rope, or leather handle to match your style and specific requirements.
    Practical snap hook: Allows quick switching to a different attachment or handle. Replacement takes seconds, not minutes.

This chain version is particularly valuable for stable transfers, presentations, or working with spirited horses. It enables precise control while offering significantly greater durability than standard textile leads.

Notice: Please keep in mind that the higher weight and potential noise of metal mean that for young or highly sensitive horses, a softer lead option may often be more suitable.


## Limits and maintenance

* Handles typical outdoor conditions without issue — rain, mud, moisture, sweat. No need to dry or treat specially after every water contact.
* Reliably protects the underlying material during typical outdoor use — rain, dew, occasional wetting. May not be sufficient for permanently wet environments.
* Resists daily use even with active dogs. The surface holds its original appearance for a long time, even when in contact with straps, snaps or other hard surfaces.
* Over time loses its original gloss and the tone changes slightly. This does not affect function, but the surface eventually does not look as fresh as at the start.
