Equally effective in wet &amp; dry conditions.<br /><br /></font></p> </li> <li><p align="left"><font size="2">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.<br /><br /></font></p> </li> <li><p align="left"><font size="2">Keratex Hoof Hardener is not an oil or resin layer and does not seal the hoof. Hoof Hardener will ensure the treated hoof is able to breathe naturally so the moisture balance is properly maintained.<br /><br /></font></p> </li> <li><p align="left"><font size="2">Should also be applied to the sole of the hoof to prevent bruising.<br /></font></p> </li> </ul> <p align="left"><font size="2">Keratex Hoof Hardener is a gentle acting chemical formulation which 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.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2">The cross-linking process results in additional atoms being distributed between the keratin molecules to<b> </b>produce a tougher and stronger horn structure.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2">Many other products claim to strengthen the hoof, but usually this entails a superficial layer of resin or varnish. Keratex Hoof Hardener works by actually improving the structure of&nbsp; the horn itself. </font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2">Since 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.</font></p> </P> <P><B>Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Category25" TITLE="Hoof Care">Hoof Care</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product415 TITLE="Animalintex Hoof Poultice">Animalintex Hoof Poultice</A> -- hot or cold poultice <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product458 TITLE="Barefoot Sculptor">Barefoot Sculptor</A> -- New rasp....easy trim! <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product488 TITLE="Barefoot Sculptor Replacement Rasp">Barefoot Sculptor Replacement Rasp</A> -- Replacement rasp <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product470 TITLE="Easy Care Hoof Pick">Easy Care Hoof Pick</A> -- Strong and Magnetic! <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product485 TITLE="Keratex Hoof Gel">Keratex Hoof Gel</A> -- year-round maintenance product <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product486 TITLE="Keratex Hoof Putty">Keratex Hoof Putty</A> -- great for abscesses <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product483 TITLE="Keratex Mud Shield Powder">Keratex Mud Shield Powder</A> -- Protect against the effects of mud and water <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product548 TITLE="RidersRasp">RidersRasp</A> -- keep hooves balanced between trimmings <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product549 TITLE="RidersRasp Replacement Blades">RidersRasp Replacement Blades</A> -- replace dull blades <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product414 TITLE="Sole Pack">Sole Pack</A> -- single pad poultice <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product413 TITLE="Sore No More - The Sauce">Sore No More - The Sauce</A> -- treat thrush and more <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product368 TITLE="Thrush XX">Thrush XX</A> -- clears up thrush fast <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/slypner/Product469 TITLE="Ultimate Hoof Pick">Ultimate Hoof Pick</A> -- The Jackhammer! </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/slypner" TITLE="SlypnerGear.com Products">SlypnerGear.com Products</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.slypnergear.com">SlypnerGear.com</A> <BR>SlypnerGear.com <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce software">ecommerce software</A> powered by Nexternal
