BALANCE HOOF PADS

AUSTRALIAN MADE, one size fits all, front and back.

Flat and 3 degree

1. Place the sized and worked shoe on the pad and tap with hammer to mark toe clip or side clips and trim out this/these area/s of the pad.

2. Once clip areas are trimmed pad will now sit flush with horseshoe. The pads are marked with “GROUND SIDE” to avoid any confusion when fitting. Trim off any excess pad material.

3. Make sure hoof is brushed clean and dry. The option to apply a frog treatment e.g., copper sulphate is now.

4. Mix equal parts of the 2-part silicone putty or impression material until colour is fully blended. Move quickly to avoid putty hardening.

5. Flatten the 2-part silicone putty or impression material to cover across the frog area and position your shoe and pad in place.

6. Secure the shoe with a nail in each side of the shoe and place the hoof down to bear weight and disperse the 2-part silicone putty or impression material through the pad slots before it sets. This step is essential and should not be missed.

7. Pick up hoof and wipe off excess 2-part silicone putty or impression material before it fully sets.

8. Put the remaining nails in the shoe and finish job as standard.
