Jingle Free Tags on Biothane collars

Jingle Free Tags can be used on some Biothane (waterproof webbing) collars, however there are some limitations.

If your Biothane collar is made by us, you have four options:

  1. Expect to use some muscle and/or a pliers to put your tag on your collar. This will work for collars 3/4" and wider. Not recommended for anything narrower than 3/4".
  2. If you're ordering a new Biothane collar at the same time, leave us a note to use a Chicago Screw on your collar so that the webbing can be unthreaded from the hardware, threaded through the tag, and then re-assembled. We recommend a bit of Loctite to the screw threads for permanent applications. A Chicago screw replaces one of the permanent rivets on the collar.
  3. Request that your tag be permanently built-in to your collar. You'll want to send us a current collar measurement so we can nail the sizing. 
  4. Purchase a Name Plate Holder to make switching your tag easier.

If your Biothane collar is made by another company:

  1. If it has a free end to thread through the tag, you should have no trouble applying the tag that way. Be aware there will be a noticeable kink in your collar where the tag sits
  2. If it is an adjustable type with a buckle at both ends OR a martingale type that doesn't have an open end, proceed with caution. Biothane brand and off-branded coated webbings come in many different thicknesses - some are too stiff to fold into the tag.
