Nail-it – the proven aid for optimal positioning of horseshoes without cap on the hoof
Nail-it, the nail up help
Nail-it, the nailing-on aid, has proven itself for years. It was developed by farriers and is a great and reliable aid for positioning, checking and subsequent nailing on of horseshoes without caps. It can be used with both steel and aluminum horseshoes. Especially it is a great help for young and rather inexperienced farriers who have trouble keeping the exact position. Nail-it can also help when the horse is a bit wobbly and so freehand positioning of the horseshoe without a cap is difficult.
Accurately positioning a horseshoe without a cap, whether it is iron, cast iron, copper or aluminum, is not easy. Inexperienced and young farriers, as well as apprentices who are allowed to nail on horseshoes, are certainly glad that at least during their apprenticeship a handy, simple and stable tool is available to nail a horseshoe without a cap as accurately, stably and easily as possible on the hoof of a horse. It is for this the ideal and indispensable aid and tool to ensure the correct nailing on.
This tool has been developed and continuously improved by farriers and engineers over the years and solves the problem of slipping when positioning the horseshoe without a cap on the hoof. The patented and unique system can be used with horseshoes from a wide range of manufacturers and suppliers. Also the material from which the horseshoe without cap is made is not important. The unique Nail-it has a universal compatible mount that allows all sizes and thicknesses of horseshoes to be picked up, clamped and positioned. This farrier tool is designed primarily for use in positioning horseshoes without caps on the front hoof, but can also be used on the rear hoof.
It also has a unique screw in the weft area that allows to stably define and fix the position of the horseshoe without cap in relation to the white line, allowing a safe and precise driving of the nails.
Tips:
The tool can be used with steel or aluminum horseshoes, and can be used with a wide variety of horseshoe sizes. Also the thickness of the horseshoes is no problem.
