Types of Horse Clippers
Clippers and trimmers are a valuable grooming tool for quickly removing excess or stray hairs. Use them seasonally to keep indoor work horses cool during winter or year-round as part of show preparations. There are several categories of horse trimmers for different applications:
All-Purpose Clippers: Heavy-duty all-purpose clippers are ideal for bridle paths, ears and fetlocks. Lightweight and powerful, these clippers are maintenance-free, run quieter and are perfect for keeping that clean look. There are both corded and cordless horse clipper models.
Body Clippers: The wooliest horse is no match for these powerful body clippers. They’re versatile enough to offer lower speeds for trimming bridle paths, ears and fetlock.
Finishing Clippers: Trimming the delicate, sensitive areas around the eyes, ears and muzzles requires precision. The narrower trimmer head has either a #30 or #40 blade to ensure closeness and accuracy. Choose between rechargeable finishing clippers or battery-operated models. Their trimmer motors run quiet and cool.
