Jim Blurton Racetrack Clencher
The Jim Blurton Racetrack Clencher is a purpose-built clinching tool for racing farriery, featuring ergonomically designed handles that fit the palm comfortably for sustained use during a long race day. The rivet is positioned close to the jaw to maximise the mechanical advantage of the clenching action, delivering powerful, precise clinches with minimal hand force. This forward rivet placement is particularly important in racing farriery where slim, low-profile nails must be clinched quickly, accurately, and with enough force to ensure they stay flat and secure throughout the race. Built from quality tool steel to Jim Blurton's high finish standards, the Racetrack Clencher is a specialist, well-engineered tool for farriers who take racing seriously.
The Jim Blurton Racetrack Clencher features a proven design for excellent performance and reliability. The handles are ergonomically designed and fit the palm of the hand well. The rivet is positioned close to the jaw which gives the tool a powerful clenching action with minimum effort from the user. The ‘Racetrack’ models are ideal for thoroughbreds and performance horses. Available as part of the Jim Blurton Professional Farrier Tool range, the Racetrack clencher was developed and tested at Jim’s forge in Mid Wales. It has been tested by some of the world’s leading farriers and equine experts, and is now available worldwide online.
