Hackamore Metalab Tandem Tandem Neoprene Black

Metalab's Hackamore Tandem combines a neoprene noseband with stainless steel hardware to provide control and comfort without clutching. Its tandem design distributes pressure between the nose, chin and back of the neck, providing clear signals with less severity than a traditional long lever hackamore.

Key Features

• Neoprene noseband: soft and cushioned for comfort and less friction on the nose bridge.
• Stainless steel: high corrosion resistance and durability.
• 18 cm branches: moderate-long leverage for effective one-handed action.
• Mouthpiece-free control: ideal for horses with sensitive mouth or dental discomfort.
• Stable fit: balanced pressure distribution (nose, chin and nape).

Specifications

• Materials: Neoprene noseband; stainless steel sides and hardware.
• Length of branches/needles: 18 cm.
• Color: black (noseband).

Recommendations for use

• Adjustment: place the noseband about 23 cm above the nostrils, avoiding the soft part of the muzzle.
• Barb: adjust so that it acts without strangling; it should allow 12 fingers when there is no tension.
• Reins: use with soft hands; the 18 cm lever increases the action if too much pressure is applied.
• Maintenance: clean the neoprene with a damp cloth; dry the hardware after each use to preserve the shine of the stainless steel.
