  • Headcollar Safety Survey Results:

    Equilibrium commissioned Dr David Marlin to conduct a survey. Answered by 5615 horse owners*, the survey aimed to find out their experience with using headcollars. This included how often they used them, what types were used, how they were used and the problems associated with them.
    The results were surprising.
    • Almost 1 out of 3 people experienced a horse being injured as a result of a headcollar.
    • More than 1 in 7 people have been injured in a headcollar related incident.
    • There were 167 horse fatalities as a result of a headcollar.

    Unsurprisingly the majority of incidents occurred tied outside, closely followed by in the field. These results demonstrated that perhaps, headcollars should be investigated in more depth…

  • Scientific Testing of Headcollars

    To explore headcollar safety further, Equilibrium commissioned Dr. David Marlin to test the release points of different types of headcollars and tying up devices, including baling twine. The results showed a great variation, from some tie up aids releasing as low as 9kg, to some headcollars releasing as high as over 600kg - more than the average horse's weight.

  • Stellar Testing & Release Points

    Different strap lengths and configurations were independently tested by Dr. David Marlin, of Animal Web. The testing method has evolved to include a metal box within the rig that helps mimic the lateral forces (that would usually be from the horse’s cheek) applied to the strap when under maximum load. By varying the Velcro length, we can tailor the release point to suit the size of the horse, based on 10–15% of their body weight. The average release weights are:

    Extra Small = 50kg
    Small/Pony Headcollar = 60kg
    Medium/Cob Headcollar = 70kg
    Large/Horse Headcollar = 80kg
    Extra Large Headcollar = 90kg

    The release system is tested to release consistently, up to 10 times. We recommend that the safety strap is replaced after this (or if the Velcro is not adhering well) to ensure efficiency.

    *Our testing is based on a downwards pull replicating the forces that would be applied when pulling against the poll of the horse, it cannot be guaranteed to release at these weights in every direction of pull. Figures based on average release rates of Stellar All Weather and Stellar Style combined, rounded to the nearest 10kg.

How Safe is Your Horse's Headcollar?

Headcollars are one of the most used pieces of horse equipment. In fact, 88% of owners use a horse headcollar every day*. As riders, we have safety equipment to protect ourselves, such as boots, hats, and body protectors. This is obviously to prevent injury or the severity of injury in the event of an accident. But is there a need for our horse headcollars to be safe too? We designed our Stellar Headcollar after researching headcollar accidents, read on to find out what we found.

Poll injuries from Pulling Back

It is inevitable that most horses will be tied up from time to time, whether on the yard, in their stable, or in a lorry or trailer. It is also likely most of us can think of a time where a horse has pulled back and they haven’t broken free but have panicked and put a considerable amount of force against their poll, their neck and their back.

Fantastic Headcollar - use it for turnout. And every day use. I even use it with a grazing muzzle and for travelling. It wears well and looks smart. Always confident that when the need arises it does indeed break without worry. I wouldnt use anything else.

Thank you for your order and for your lovely comments, these will be passed on to our Product Team. Clare

A well made and redesigned headcollar. The only problem is finding it when it comes off in the field. Ideally there needs to be a Ho-Viz version or alternatively you can wrap bright tape around parts of the head collar, so it can be seen in the grass/mud

Thank you for your order and for taking the time to leave us a 5* review, the Stellar All Weather Headcollar does have a reflective strip on the logo and I have passed the request for a Hi Viz version onto the Product Team. Clare

Rather disappointed with the fit and fastening of this.
I had a Previous Stella head collar that I liked with popper fastening.
These were easy to do up and undo.
The new style one doesn't fit as well, is too large for my horse around the nose and cheek so pulls into the eyes and the buckle fastening is not as convenient as the previous style..

Thank you for your order and for your feedback, I have passed this on to our Product Team. We can exchange the headcollar for you if you need a smaller size. Clare
