KM Elite - Premium Stall Stable Chain (Baby Blue)

KM Elite Premium Stall Chain – Baby Blue

A stall chain does one job: it holds the doorway while the door itself stays open, so the horse gets light, air and something to look at. KM Elite's runs to 130cm across a standard opening and clips on at both ends, which means it can be taken off and put back in seconds rather than unbolted.

What is inside matters more than the colour. The core is aircraft cord — the same braided, high-tensile cord used for control cables — sleeved in a soft cover so it does not mark paintwork or a horse's chest. Baby Blue is the shade named on this listing; KM Elite's own colour list for this chain gives Teal and Pastel Blue rather than Baby Blue.

Performance & Benefits

• Lets light and air into a stable without leaving the doorway open.
• Extra-tough aircraft cord core rather than plain rope or plastic chain.
• 130cm, which spans a standard stall opening.
• Clip at each end, so it goes on and comes off in seconds with no tools.
• Practical for a horse that is in and out of the box repeatedly through the day.

Suitable For

• Stables where ventilation and a view out matter, in warm weather or on box rest.
• Horses that stand quietly and respect a barrier they can see.
• Yards where a door has to be left open for airflow but the horse must stay in.
• American barns and internal stabling with a fixed doorway either side.
• Not suitable for a horse that leans, pushes or ducks under — that horse needs a solid closed door, or a full stable grille.

How to Use

• Fix a mounting bracket or a suitable ring to each side of the doorway at chest height, roughly level with the point of the horse's shoulder.
• Clip one end to each side so the chain runs straight across the opening without sagging.
• Unclip one end only to lead the horse in or out; leaving the other end attached keeps the chain off the floor.
• Wipe the cover down when it gets muddy and check both clips and the swaged ends before each use.
• A KM Elite four-hole steel mounting bracket is sold separately if the doorway has nothing suitable to clip to.

Specification

• Length 130cm, sized for a standard stall opening.
• Extra-tough aircraft cord core inside a coloured protective cover.
• A clip at each end for tool-free fitting and removal.
• Colour: Baby Blue.
• KM Elite's published colour list for this chain gives Teal and Pastel Blue; Baby Blue is the name used on this listing.
• Compatible with the KM Elite four-hole steel mounting bracket, sold separately.
• KM Elite publish no breaking strain, no cord diameter and no clip rating for the stall chain, so none is stated here.

Care & Caution

• A stall chain is a visual and physical marker, not a secure barrier. KM Elite state plainly that it has a breaking point and should only be used where the horse is otherwise securely kept.
• Never leave a horse unattended behind a stall chain, and never use one in place of a closed door for a horse that pushes, leans or has learned to duck under.
• Set the height carefully. Too low and a horse can step over and become trapped; too high and it can get its head and neck under.
• Replace the chain if the outer cover splits and exposes the cord, or if a clip no longer closes cleanly.
