Usage

Only normal adult horses can wear iron horse armor; baby horses, donkeys, mules, and undead variants such as skeleton horses and zombie horses cannot be equipped with armor. When equipped, iron horse armor gives 5 (🛡🛡🛡) armor points.

Enchanting

Unlike player armor, horse armor cannot be enchanted in Survival mode. However, in Java Edition Creative mode, horse armor can be used with an anvil to enchant with Thorns, Feather Falling, Protection, Fire Protection, Projectile Protection, Blast Protection, Curse of Binding, and Curse of Vanishing. Other enchantments can be applied, but they have no effect.
