Description

Product Code: YKHH

Hoof Hardener
Keratex Hoof Hardener formula is patented and includes a unique flexibility agent as well as a
hardening agent, making this the perfect product to protect your horse from: brittle, cracked, soft or weak hooves; soft, sensitive or thin soles; repeated shoe loss; transition to barefoot; hoof damage.
Keratex Hoof Hardener will strengthen and protect shod and unshod hooves, to restore
soundness after sensitive soles and to prevent existing cracks from laddering up or across the hooves.
It works by cross-linking the keratins and proteins within the internal structures of the hooves, making hooves stronger from the inside out. Because it absorbs into the hooves, it will not ‘come off’ in the field, it will continue to work within the hoof whatever the weather and whatever the field conditions.
Since it first became available to horse owners in 1990 as the first product of its kind, Keratex
Hoof Hardener has shown to improve hoof quality. Keratex Hoof Hardener is recommended by vets and farriers worldwide.

Voted Product of the Year and Editor’s Choice on several occasions by the USA’s most
prestigious US equestrian publication, Horse Journal, this highly acclaimed product is
frequently featured in many of the world’s equestrian media. It is recognised globally within the industry, farriers and vets as a leading product in its field.

Available in 250ml bottles, application brush supplied.
Ingredients: Aluminum chloride hexahydrate, Glycerine (glycerol), Formaldehyde, Ethyl
alcohol, Methyl alcohol, Methyl salicylate, Water

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Ariat boots run true to size?

Yes, in most styles. Ariat western boots use standard US sizing — use the international equivalents table above to convert your AU/UK size. If you are between sizes or have a wider foot, most customers go up a half size in pointed-toe styles.

How do I measure my head for a hat?

Wrap a tape measure around your head about 1cm above your ear, where the hat will sit. Match the measurement in cm to the Thomas Cook hat chart above — this covers most Akubra-style sizing too.

What's the difference between mid rise and high rise jeans?

Rise is the distance from the crotch to the top of the waistband. Mid rise (around 7–8") sits just below or at the waist; performance/high rise (8½"+) sits at or above the natural waist. The fit tables above show the exact rise for each jean model.

What if I order the wrong size?

No drama — we offer exchanges within 30 days (customer pays postage; sale items are final sale). See our returns policy or start an exchange online.

Can I check a size in store before ordering?

Absolutely — visit us at Shop 1, 107 River Rd, Gympie, or call 07 5482 2320 and we will measure a garment against the chart for you before you buy.
