Eventer Steel
GRIP, WEIGHT, HIGH PERFORMANCE

St. Croix steel horseshoes are drop-forged from premium steel which has the required properties expected in top-quality horseshoes and this will be evident to the farrier during fitting. Resistance to wear, a good fit and reliable holes are expected features of St. Croix steel horseshoes.

The Eventer is a popular horseshoe which has been designed for the needs of versatile, often very spirited horses. In this context, terms such as grip, weight and performance are very important. This is a profiled horseshoe with a consistently high quality. The heels are flat without fullering for better support of the hoof and with the option of drilling holes for studs.

In addition to the added grip provided by the concave section, it also helps prevent the build-up of manure and sand under the foot. Another integral feature aimed at improving the grip and reducing the weight is the continuous crease in the toe section. The crease has a U-shaped fuller, but is designed so that E-nails will also fit perfectly.

Eventer Aluminum
70% LIGHTER

The design of the Eventer aluminium horseshoe is the same as that of the standard steel Eventer horseshoe, except that it is cast in aluminium. The use of aluminium has made it possible to reduce the weight, compared to the steel Eventer horseshoe, by around 70%.

Aluminium does not have the wear resistance of steel, but because of its lower weight it is perfect for horses that are in rehabilitation after a leg injury, or for horses that are very sensitive to strain or loading injuries. Also this lighter shoe is useful where the horse requires the additional support provided by sole pads or silicone, which can increase the overall weight per foot by up to 500g; this increase in weight can be limited by using an aluminium shoe.

The properties of aluminium for working differ from those of steel, especially since during heat deformation there is no fusion phase as in steel but only a fusion point. Once this point is reached, the metal melts immediately.
