Keratex Hoof Hardener

What is Keratex Hoof Hardener?

Keratex Hoof Hardener strengthens weak, worn and cracked hooves by improving the molecular structure of the horn itself. It prevents the horn from taking in excess moisture, making it resistant to softening and weakening in wet conditions. This results in a reduction in shoe loss and abscesses. Keratex Hoof Hardener prevents cracks and hoof breakage so that shoes can stay on tight and your horse remains sound. It's equally effective in wet and dry conditions. Since Keratex Hoof Hardener is neither a varnish or resin layer, it leaves no visible coating, therefore the treated hoof is able to breathe and function naturally. Keratex Hoof Hardener is ideal for weak hooves and soft soles prone to bruising, horses that are worked barefoot, and brood mares, foals and yearlings.

How does Keratex Hoof Hardener work?

Keratex Hoof Hardener strengthens weak, worn and cracked hooves by improving the molecular structure of the horn itself. It forms additional intermolecular bonds between molecules of keratin through the process of cross-linking. Keratin is the main protein constituent of horn and is best described as the building block of the horn structure.

Cautions:

Keep away from your horse's eyes, nose, and mouth. Wear gloves and protective clothing when applying Keratex Hoof Hardener to your horse.
