Bucas Therapy Light Turnout Rug - Navy/Orange
The Bucas Therapy Light Turnout Rug - Navy/Orange is a premium 50g waterproof therapeutic horse rug combining durable weather protection with innovative Bucas Recuptex technology. Designed for horses requiring lightweight insulation and comfortable everyday turnout, this rug features a tough ballistic nylon outer, therapeutic stainless-steel mesh fabric and silky Dermo-Care lining.
At the heart of the rug is the distinctive Bucas Recuptex Therapy fabric, incorporating an exceptionally fine stainless-steel mesh. Developed to interact with the body's naturally occurring electromagnetic fields, this specialist material is intended to support circulation and muscle comfort, making it particularly appealing for horses requiring additional attention to their back and muscular wellbeing.
The waterproof ballistic nylon outer provides dependable protection against wet weather, while 50g thermobonded polyester insulation adds a light layer of warmth without the bulk of a heavyweight turnout rug.
A smooth Dermo-Care lining helps wick moisture away from the horse's skin and maintain a silky coat, while shoulder darts provide shaping for comfortable movement.
Finished with the patented Click'n Go front fastening with magnetic Snap-lock closure, secure cross surcingles, leg straps and a protective tail flap, the Bucas Therapy Light Turnout combines innovative design with practical everyday functionality.

Why Choose the Bucas Therapy Light Turnout Rug?
The Bucas Therapy Light Turnout offers a distinctive combination of weather protection, lightweight insulation and Recuptex therapeutic technology.
Its specialist stainless-steel mesh fabric is designed to support the horse's natural circulation and muscular comfort, while the durable waterproof outer provides practical protection during turnout.
Unlike traditional magnetic therapy rugs containing separate magnets, the Recuptex material incorporates a fine stainless-steel mesh throughout the therapeutic fabric.
Combined with the silky Dermo-Care lining and secure Bucas fastening system, this makes the Therapy Light a versatile option for horses requiring comfortable everyday rugging with additional wellbeing-focused features.
Bucas Recuptex Therapy Technology
The Bucas Recuptex fabric incorporates an extremely fine stainless-steel mesh designed to interact with the horse's naturally occurring electromagnetic fields.
According to Bucas, this technology is intended to encourage circulation and support muscular comfort, particularly around the horse's back.
The therapeutic properties are built into the fabric rather than applied as a surface treatment, meaning they are designed to remain present through appropriate washing and regular use.
The Recuptex system does not rely on separate magnets.
Important: Therapeutic rugs should not be considered a substitute for veterinary assessment or treatment. Consult your vet if your horse is experiencing persistent stiffness, swelling, pain or an injury.
Lightweight 50g Thermobonded Insulation
The Bucas Therapy Light features 50g thermobonded polyester wadding, providing a light layer of insulation for changeable weather conditions.
This makes it particularly useful when a little additional warmth is required without the heavier filling of a mediumweight or heavyweight turnout rug.
The appropriate rug weight will depend on your horse's individual needs, coat, clipping status and weather conditions.
Durable Waterproof Ballistic Nylon Outer
The rug features a tough ballistic nylon outer fabric, combining durability with waterproof protection for everyday turnout.
With a waterproof rating exceeding 5,000mm hydrostatic head, the outer fabric is designed to help protect against wet weather.
Breathability exceeding 3,000g/24h/m² helps moisture vapour escape, supporting a more comfortable environment beneath the rug.
Silky Dermo-Care Lining
The Bucas Dermo-Care lining provides a smooth, silky surface against the horse's coat.
Designed to help wick moisture away from the skin, the lining supports coat comfort while helping minimise friction during wear.
Its soft finish complements the rug's therapeutic fabric and breathable outer construction.
Click'n Go Front Fastening with Magnetic Snap-Lock
The Bucas Therapy Light features the patented Click'n Go front fastening system with magnetic Snap-lock closure.
This practical design makes fastening the rug convenient, while providing a secure front closure for everyday use.
Shoulder darts allow additional shaping around the front of the horse, helping maintain a comfortable fit.
Secure Turnout Design
The rug is equipped with cross surcingles, leg straps, a protective tail flap and deluxe tail cord to help keep it securely positioned during turnout.
These practical features provide stability and coverage while allowing the horse to move comfortably.
Compatible with Bucas Liners, Quilts & Coolers
The Bucas Therapy Light includes connection points for use with compatible Bucas Liners, Quilts and Coolers, allowing additional layers to be incorporated when required.
This provides flexibility when adjusting insulation to suit changing weather conditions.
Optional Bucas Therapy Turnout Neck
The Bucas Therapy Light is supplied in a Classic Cut design, with attachment points for a compatible Bucas Therapy Turnout Neck.
The optional neck cover provides additional coverage and incorporates the corresponding therapy fabric.
Please note: The Bucas Therapy Turnout Neck is sold separately and is not included with this rug.
Introducing Your Horse to Recuptex Therapy
Bucas advises introducing the Therapy rug gradually when first used.
Begin with shorter periods of wear and increase the duration progressively while monitoring your horse's comfort and response.
Although the Recuptex fabric does not contain separate magnets and Bucas states that extended wear is possible, suitability for prolonged use should be assessed individually.
Always monitor your horse's temperature, skin condition and general comfort, particularly during changing weather conditions.
