Heiniger has launched OpalHorse, a new set of cordless clippers that are almost silent, making them the ideal choice when clipping nervous or sensitive horses.

With OpalHorse, Heiniger AG sets new standards. The new machine operates almost silently and, at the same time, the trimmer is extremely powerful and features two speed settings. With up to 3,100 double strokes per minute, it easily glides through thick coats and horse hair.

Battery time

OpalHorse uses the latest lithium-ion technology which allows for up to 180 minutes of cordless operation. It takes just one hour for a full battery recharge.

Thanks to the integrated charge level indicator, the remaining operating time is always clearly visible. This makes the OpalHorse ideal for clipping a horse out in full, especially with its wide snap-on blades. 

OpalHorse clippers have a cordless run time of three hours

Ease of use

Thanks to its well-thought-out design, the OpalHorse is ergonomically state-of-the-art and fits perfectly in the user’s hand.

A ‘soft touch’ anti-slip coating makes the machine extremely easy to grip.

At 415g it is also very lightweight and compact — ideal for fatigue-free work even during extended use.

With its elegant design, developed specifically for the equestrian sector, the OpalHorse is a real eye-catcher in the stable and brings more enjoyment to daily horse care.
