American-Style Collars
Premium draft equipment: choosing the American collar
A specialist in animal traction in Lozère, Joie de l'attelage selects professional American collars for draft horses, donkeys and mules. Designed to perfectly follow the anatomy of the equine, the American collar offers an optimal bearing surface that protects the animal’s shoulders while multiplying its pulling power. Whether for market gardening, horse logging or heavy farm work, this range features robust, high-quality collars, along with expert advice on adapting the padding to the build of each horse (Comtois, Breton, Percheron, etc.).
We sell American collars, manufactured by Coblentz Collar in Millersburg, Ohio.
These collars are adjustable over 3 sizes, which makes it possible to adapt them to different horses or to changes in the condition of the horse. (1 size = 2.54 cm).
The hames are eye-type, which allows the traction point to be adjusted in height.
The pads are made of vinyl or synthetic fur in various colors to choose from.
A collar body weighs approximately 5 kg, the hames 3.5 kg and the pad 1.5 kg.
The traces are made of polypropylene, therefore insensitive to moisture, with a hemp-look finish that gives them a traditional feel and appearance. They are finished with chain links, which makes it easy to adjust their length. All types of ends are possible: with forestrap, with buckle, without chain link…
The complete set including collar, hames, 2 hame straps and one pad is 900 euros. With the traces, the complete set is 950 euros.
For equipment projects, a wide range of other models and colors is also available, always at unbeatable prices.
