This super soft netting is made from 5mm thick and high strength PP (polypropylene) with a super-strong 240ply.
Like our original knotted nets, the knotless hay nets are available in extra small to extra large as well as round bales and export bales. This means the new nets are still super easy to fill due to nice wide-open mouths.
This product can be thrown on the ground if your horse isn’t shod. It doesn’t have metal joints, too, so you don’t have to worry about your horses’ teeth or mouths getting injured.
Both the knotless and knotted hay nets are made from our very own GutzBusta® sizes that we have developed over the years with feedback from our customers. They are superior in size, strength and usability. Having a super wide mouth that makes them easy to fill is one of the greatest attributes of our nets.
It’s also important to note that you cannot compare the knotted nets to the knotless ones in terms of ply as they are made of entirely different materials. Ply refers to how many individual strands are in each section of the netting. The strength is in how strong those individual strands are, how tight they are, and what material they are made from. So you are comparing apples to oranges if you are comparing knotless to knotted in terms of ply.
Why are GutzBusta® Hay Nets so popular?
Our products are designed with large and strong drawstrings to secure the hay net around your round bale. It’s easier to put on compared to other hay nets available in the market. We’ve been making quality hay nets for over 8 years and we know how the netting behaves over time. This is why we developed a size and pattern that works to enable these nets to last longer.
A GutzBusta® Hay Net reduces hay wastage. In our situation, a 4×4 round bale of pasture hay can last 3 to 4 horses for 7 to 15 days with a 4cm / 1 3/4″ net, depending on how cold the weather is. This rate was for Winter, however, in Summer, we found that a 4×4 lasted these horses nearly 3 months due to being low sugar/palatability.
