What
Do You Get When You Combine Granite and Diamond?
Griamond!
In response to numerous customer requests for a
“harder” version of our granite coating,
we’ve integrated the hardness of our Diamond 401 with the
matte finish of Granite 231. Griamond 431 is designed for the toughest
harness applications and also features more abrasion resistance and
buckle pull strength. Any item from our Granite class is available in
Griamond.

a
Grip with Our New Beta® 560
A
softer version of Beta 520, new Beta
560 is more pliable for an
improved grip on horse reins, leashes, lines and other applications
requiring a secure, yet flexible handhold.
A
Better Product for Less
Reflective
with Edge Guard® is our newest improvement to the Reflective
series. Dramatically improved reflective strip adhesion and a durable
edge coating make this a great enhancement for dog collars. While the
Reflective has been dramatically improved over the current Reflective
products, it costs 15 percent less! Reflective with Edge Guard®
is available in the Standard 1” width, with more sizes
available by yearend.
Now
You See It, Now You Don't
Our
six most popular Beta® class products now come with black
webbing, resulting in a cleaner, more professional look to products
requiring cutting, holes or slots. The black web meets the same
specifications as the current white web for break strength, hole pull
strength, adhesion and flexibility. In addition, the Beta coating
material and pricing is the same as the white webbing.
