This item does not include the Hackle.

These Hackle Covers will protect your hackle tines from damage, prevent injuries to you and others, and help ensure safety when left unattended, when traveling, or around curious children.

If you think you'll want one of these protective covers, I advise you to purchase it at the same time you buy your hackle. That way I can ensure it will fit and be the correct size/length for your hackle. The reason for this is because I have modified and made subsequent models better. If you are buying these together with a hackle, I may have a listing for that specifically and you will save a few dollars.

A precision recess that perfectly matches the hackle tine configuration. The recess even matches the tines’ tapering on each side. They will effortlessly slide over the tines with no play between the wood and tines.

You can even attach the covers in a hurry with fiber on if necessary. You can also have the cover on while diz'ing or blending/combing. This is especially helpful if you have curious cats, dogs, or children around.

For maximum safety, use C-Clamps to attach your hackle. This allows the pins to secure the cover completely.

The pins are made from 275 paracord and mild steel. Each pin uses a 1" piece of ¼" diameter mild steel round bar. Both ends are chamfered. Then I counterbored one side of the pin, (which is essentially drilling a slightly bigger hole, then the through hole). The through hole is slightly bigger than the paracord. I then melted one end of the paracord and pulled it into the counterbore for a non-adjustable way of permanently attaching. For the other side I’ve essentially done the same thing. The Hackle Covers are not adjustable because they will never need adjusting. Paracord will not stretch and the unseen melted end inserted in the pins will not slip or slide out. The pin is approximately .002” smaller and should never come out until you literally pull it out. This is a super precise/precision hole that makes these covers, and the way you attach them is much better than other makers' covers.

This gives these Hackle Covers a super clean look with unmatched safety on the market.

The Hackle Covers are super easy to put on your hackle. Simply find one end of the tines with the cover, carefully capture all tines, and slide down. Insert retaining pin, eliminate any slack between that pin and the other and simply insert the other pin. Never needs adjusting. It will always fit and keep your Riley Wood and Fiber Art Hackles safe and secure from you, pets, and most importantly, children.
