Hoof Taps Equine Zinc Insert 25-Pack

Hoof Taps Equine Zinc Inserts are a farrier-developed solution for supporting healthy hoof growth and repairing common hoof defects. Designed by New York farrier Doug Ehrmann, these zinc-coated inserts are tapped into the hoof wall to assist with issues like white line disease, cracks, wall separation, uneven growth, and excessive wear.

Why choose Hoof Taps for hoof repair?

• Targets common hoof issues including cracks and wall separation
• Encourages strong, healthy hoof growth from within
• Three barbed metal posts for secure placement in the hoof wall
• Can be used under traditional shoes, glue-on shoes, boots, or barefoot
• Supports horses transitioning to barefoot when suitable
• Sold in a practical container of 25 inserts

How do Hoof Taps work?

The inserts are gently tapped into the hoof wall in the same area as nail placement, sitting flush with the hoof. They remain in place throughout the trimming cycle and are trimmed out during the next farrier visit. Their design allows for natural hoof flexion and expansion, making them a supportive aid rather than a replacement for horseshoes.
