Rather than a horse hitting the end of a solid rope and setting itself back, the elastic cord absorbs the first part of the movement, which is usually enough to stop a startled horse escalating into a full pull-back. KM Elite's version is 23\" long with a quick-release panic snap on one end and a trigger clip on the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe panic snap is the part worth paying for. It is built so the sliding collar can still be worked by hand while the horse is leaning on the tie, which is exactly the moment an ordinary trigger clip jams solid. Royal Blue is the shade used on this listing; KM Elite's own colour list for the Bungee Tie gives Blue rather than Royal Blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElastic bungee cord absorbs the first jolt when a horse steps back or startles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-release panic snap at one end, designed to be undone by hand under load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrigger clip at the other end for the headcollar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e23\" long, short enough for a trailer bay and long enough for a stable ring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKM Elite catalogue reference KBT.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTying in a trailer, horsebox or lorry bay for short periods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable tying while grooming, tacking up or clipping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorses that fidget or step back at the tie rather than genuinely pulling back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot the answer for a confirmed puller-back — that is a training problem, and no tie of any kind should be relied on to contain one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClip the trigger end to the headcollar and the panic snap to a loop of breakable baler twine on the tie ring, never direct to the ring itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjust the twine so the horse can stand square and lower its head a little, without enough slack to get a leg over the tie.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease by pulling the panic snap's sliding collar — it is designed to be worked by hand even while the horse is pulling back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStand to the side, not in front, when clipping on or releasing, so the cord cannot recoil into your face.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWipe down and hang to dry; store out of sunlight, which degrades elastic over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength 23\" (approximately 58cm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBungee cord with a quick-release panic snap and a trigger clip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKM Elite list twelve colours for this tie: Hot Orange, Black, Burgundy, Green, Navy Blue, Purple, Grey, Hunter Green, Blue, Red, Pink and Teal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKM Elite publish no cord diameter and no breaking strain for the bungee tie, so neither is stated here.
