Hoof hardener KERATEX

Keratex Hoof Hardener strengthens weak, worn and cracked hooves by improving the molecular structure of the horn itself. Equally effective in wet & dry conditions. Prevents the horn from taking in excess moisture, making it resistant to softening and weakening in wet conditions. 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. Because of the hardening and strengthening effect of Keratex Hoof Hardener, it is superb for use on shod and unshod horses.Ideal for strengthening friable hooves.
