Size & Measurements
Size & Measurements
Width: We provide two distinct sizes of our Bumblee leashes: a 9mm and 13mm option. Although the minimum breaking strength of both exceeds 150kg, we suggest opting for the 9mm option for smaller dogs, and 13mm for dogs heavier than 15kg; it simply feels better!
Length: Measuring up at around 165 cm, our Bumblee handmade leashes offer an adventure-ready asset for dog owners. Allow for a +/- 2 cm difference, and take into account the size of your dog's neck when you adjust - it'll determine the leash length while walking.
Thickness: All BioThane® Beta Coated Webbing is app. 2.5 mm thick.
Hardware options
Hardware options
Picking the right kind of hardware is really important! But what exactly is considered as hardware? It refers to all the metal elements of the leash, such as o-rings, rivets, snaps, and buckles.
Stainless Steel is known for its silver color and is highly regarded for its robustness and resilience. When compared to other metals and alloys, it has outstanding resistance to rust and corrosion, making it a low maintenance and durable choice.
Plated Steel hardware is incredibly popular within the pet and horse industry due to its wide range of unique finishes like rose gold and gun metal! Plated hardware will likely wear over time, and probably reveal the base metal, which is steel. Although it resists corrosion, prolonged wear may increase the chances of rust formation. With the right care and maintenance, your fancy colored leash can remain in excellent condition for a considerable amount of time.
Care
Care
To ensure your Bumblee BioThane® leash will last long, we have prepared couple of advice.
• Ensure that you rinse the item with fresh water after being exposed to salt water or chlorine. Use a clean towel to dry it off.
• Ensure the gear is not left out in the rain.
• Do not use wire brushes for scrubbing or washing
• If staining occurs, it is recommended to gently remove it using rubbing alcohol or dish-washing soap. It is worth noting that neon and light colors are more likely to stain.
