Blocker Halters & Lead Ropes
Blocker makes training halters and lead ropes: a cable-reinforced halter in Yearling and Large Horse sizes, a Control Halter that replaces a stud chain, and 10' and 12' lead ropes with a spring snap, the 12' with a leather popper.
Halter size
Buying tip:Blocker lead ropes come in two lengths, 10' and 12', and only the 12' has a leather popper on the end. If you plan to pop the lead to signal the halter, choose the 12'. The Control Halter is a training tool, so do not use it for turnout.
Blocker training halters: cable halter or Control Halter
Blocker halters are built to communicate clearly. With a pop of the lead rope, the nylon-encased cable in the crown and nose applies concentrated pressure to the poll and nose, and when the horse gives to the pressure the release is immediate. Blocker designed the cable halter to be forgiving enough for any horse, and says it works as an everyday halter and for training.
The Control Halter adds a rubber nose band and a chain. Blocker describes it as a safer, more humane alternative to the stud chain: the cable-reinforced crown and rubber nose band engage first, and the chain only adds pressure if the horse does not respond.
| Halter | What's different | Sizes and colors on Tack of the Day |
|---|---|---|
| Cable Reinforced Crown and Nose | Nylon-encased cable on the noseband; immediate release when the horse gives | Yearling and Large Horse; navy and red |
| Cable Reinforced Crown and Rubber Nose (Control Halter) | Rubber nose band engages before the chain; replaces a stud chain; training tool, not for turnout | Black; find it in the grid below |
See them: Cable halter (navy) and Cable halter (red). The Control Halter instructions mention a Blocker Tie Ring for horses with a tying problem. Blocker is one of the Toklat family of brands: meet the Toklat family.
Blocker lead ropes: 10' and 12' with low stretch
Blocker designs its lead ropes with the weight and swing to work as a training tool or an everyday lead. Both lengths have a durable spring snap, low stretch, and an abrasion and snag resistant rope.
The 12' lead adds a double leather popper on the end, which is the part you pop to signal the halter. The 10' has no popper.
| Lead rope | What's different | Colors on Tack of the Day |
|---|---|---|
| 10' Lead Rope | Spring snap, low stretch, no popper | Black, or black with blue, purple, red, rose gold or silver |
| 12' Lead Rope w/Popper | Spring snap, low stretch, double leather popper | Black, or black with blue, purple, red or silver |
See them: Blocker 10' Lead Rope and Blocker 12' Lead Rope w/Popper.
Choosing and sizing a Blocker halter or lead
Blocker halters come in two sizes on Tack of the Day, Yearling and Large Horse. Pick the size by your horse, then check the size information on the product page before you order. The Find Your Fit buttons above filter the range by halter size or lead rope length.
For handling, the choice is between the two halters: the cable halter for everyday use and training, or the Control Halter if you are replacing a stud chain. Blocker says to adjust the Control Halter's chain with the quick links so it sits about 1 inch below the rubber, across the horse's nose, and not to use it on a horse with a tying problem unless you also use a Blocker Tie Ring.
Who Blocker is for
Blocker suits handlers who want a halter and lead that communicate pressure and release clearly.
- Handlers who want one halter for everyday use and training: the cable halter.
- Handlers replacing a stud chain with a rubber nose band and chain: the Control Halter.
- Anyone who wants a lead with weight and swing for groundwork: the 10' or the 12' lead.
- Handlers who want a popper on the end of the lead: the 12' lead rope.
- Owners of yearlings: the cable halter comes in a Yearling size.
- Look elsewhere if you want a turnout halter: Blocker's Control Halter is not for turnout.
