Optical fiber is a type of flexible, transparent fiber made of glass or plastic that is used to transmit data as pulses of light. It operates on the principle of total internal reflection, allowing light to travel long distances with minimal loss. Optical fibers are widely used in telecommunications, internet connections, and medical instruments due to their high bandwidth and resistance to electromagnetic interference. They are essential for modern communication systems, enabling high-speed data transmission.

Is the use of Equine Fibar footing in an indoor horse arena a good idea?

Fibar Wood Fibar can be used in an existing sand Indoor (or Outdoor) arena to "liven up" the sand, or as a new installation over 1" of sand. If you plan to install Fibar in an existing ring with sand footing in place, you ideally want just 2" of coarse angular sand over a rolled and compacted hard base such as stone dust. More then that the footing will become deep. Then add 1-2" of Fibar depending on the type of riding you do. Dressage and hunter/jumper riders would go with the lesser amount. If the arena is new, you can install 1" sand over the same type of base and then 3" Fibar. The sand spec is the same as in the above installation. The Fibar will compact some, though never get hard. You will want to water ocassionally. The Fibar does hold moisture somewhat so your watering will last longer. Please check out Fibar's website www.fibar.com for cross sections, installation guidelines and more info...
