Cotton Lead Ropes
Tack Warehouse we have cotton lead ropes in a variety of widths and colors to match your horses halter. A cotton lead rope is used to walk a horse or to tie up a horse for grooming. Lead ropes come in cotton, nylon or bamboo and is the piece of horse tack that attaches to a horse halter; the part used to lead an animal such as a horse. Some lead ropes are integrated into the halter and not detachable; which could present problems if a horse pulls back and cant get freed will hard tied up. Especially if nylon, this can cause serious injury to a horse. So most of the time the lead rope is a separate item. Cotton lead ropes are preferred to trailer horses or used for horse breeding as they can easily be cut and wont burn should an accident happen. Cotton Lead ropes are attached to the halter with a heavy bull snap clip or brass or stainless snap so that the lead and halter can be added or removed as needed. A related item is the, lead shank which or leather lead chain refers to a lead with or without a chain attached to a leather line with a chain attached. The lead chain is used in conjunction with a lead to control possibly difficult or dangerous horses if they will not respond to a regular lead and should be used with discretion and under the advice of a horse trainer.
