 Why choose glue-on aluminum footwear over traditional nailing? For a foot that simply
doesn't have enough horn (hoof) to affectively nail, Equilox is the safest and most reliable method for attaching a shoe.
Additional considerations include:  1
Help maintain a hoof's natural function of support and flexion
2
Affix a shoe with little trauma to the existing hoof wall
3
Can make significant contribution to the overall treatment regime
for horses with a quarter crack, low-grade laminitis, or weak horn capsule
4
Treat hoof or lameness problems
5
Rebuild a damaged hoof
 1
Can split a weakened hoof wall
2
Increase the risk of injury (hot nails)
3
The nail must lay close to sensitive structures
4
Create holes in the hoof wall
5
The foot most grow new horn to supply solid hoof wall for the next nailing
