Key benefits

Our Most Durable Fly Sheet Available

This is one of our most durable fly sheets, designed to hold up to your most playful horse! Made of our toughest 1000 heavy polyvinyl-coated mesh fabric, we consider this the “workhorse of fly sheets”. Not only does it withstand the demands of turnout while providing 70% UV protection, but it’s also proven effective against medium to large biting insects, such as deer flies, greenheads, and horse flies. The durable open-weave mesh material also allows natural airflow to flow, so your horse stays cool in the sun.

Patented VTEK® Pressure Free Wither

Our VTEK ® Wither Relief fly sheets are designed to prevent rubbing and relieve pressure on moderate to high withers. The upright shoulder and shape over the withers are designed to fit Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, Appendix horses, or those with upright shoulder conformation. It includes an extended drop to cover a deeper heartgirth and they are shaped with darts at the hips to give a more contoured fit around the rump. Extends 6 to 8 inches onto the mane with fleece placed where the mane meets the sheet, further preventing rubbing.

Fly Sheet 101 Guide

Adjusta-Fit® Your Sheet for the Perfect Fit!

Often imitated, never duplicated! The Adjust-Fit® system was first created by us, at Schneiders®. From the widest Warmblood to the narrowest Thoroughbred, our original Adjusta-Fit® system allows you to customize the fit of the neck opening to fit any horse. Whether your horse is wide or narrow or has a high or low head carriage doesn't matter. This unique feature allows you to fit any width or head carriage, saving money and time when blanketing your horses.

An Open Front Design with Front Snaps for Easy On and Off

The open front design features double front snaps with new and improved wider hook and loop closures, allowing you to easily adjust the fly sheet for the perfect amount of “snugness” at the front of the chest. Plus, the snaps make it easy to put on and remove.

SilverTek® Lined Chest, Shoulders, and Tail

A breathable 70D SilverTek® Nylon lining has been included on the front chest, shoulders, and tail flap. This technology has proven antibacterial properties that reduce rubs, odor, and irritations that may cause your horse discomfort during the hot summer months. When it comes into contact with bacteria or other microorganisms, the silver ions are released from the fabric, distributing their cell membranes and interfering with their metabolic processes. As a result, growth is inhibited, reducing the number of bacteria on the fabric’s surface. This keeps your horse healthier and the fabric cleaner, even after extended use and wear.

Better Gusset Design for Additional Freedom

The reinforced gussets extend higher and more forward to allow a greater range of motion when your horse gets up from lying down, walking, or playing in the pasture.

Bellyband Closure for Extra Protection

The bellyband closure protects from flies and midges biting along the sensitive underbelly line. Brass-plated hardware is positioned to avoid rubbing or poking while your horse is lying down, and the rear surcingle includes a stretch panel for more give as the horse moves since the proper fit is with the bellyband snug and flush to the belly.

SilverTek® Lined Extra-Large Tail Cover for Extra Protection

The extra-large tail cover protects from flies attacking the sensitive area underneath the tail. The added SilverTek® lining reduces potential hair breakage, keeping your horse’s tail fuller and looking better!

Reflective Stripes for Added Safety

For extra safety precautions, we’ve added highly visible reflective stripes on the flanks and tail for extra visibility in low light and night turnout.

Leg Straps Included

Set the sheet at the optimum snugness with the included detachable leg straps that help keep the sheet in place. They adjust from 20" to 38" and stretch as the horse moves with double brass-plated snaps for easy on and off.

3-Year Limited Warranty

This fly sheet has been constructed with extra care and is under warranty for three years. Straps, surcingles, assembly, and hardware are guaranteed for the warranty term.
