With the Opal Horse, Heiniger sets new standards. This innovative clipper operates almost silently — a clear advantage when working with nervous or sensitive horses. Despite its quiet performance, the Opal Horse delivers outstanding power with two speed settings. Reaching up to 3,100 double strokes per minute, it glides effortlessly through thick coats and horse hair.

The latest lithium-ion battery technology provides up to 180 minutes of cordless operation, with a full recharge taking just one hour. The integrated charge-level indicator ensures users always know how much runtime remains, making it ideal for full-body clipping, particularly when paired with wide snap-on blades.
Ergonomically designed with a “soft touch” anti-slip coating, the Opal Horse is exceptionally comfortable, lightweight, and easy to handle — perfect for extended grooming sessions. Its elegant, equine-specific design makes it a standout in any stable and enhances the overall grooming experience.”

FAQ
All your questions, answered.
The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.
This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.
Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight
-
Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.
-
Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.
-
Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.
-
Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.
-
As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.
-
Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.
This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.
