MNC Vulcan Heart Bar

The MNC Vulcan Heart Bar is a drop-forged mild steel bar shoe featuring a frog plate that makes direct contact with the frog, providing the frog loading that is central to its therapeutic purpose. Heart bar shoes are widely used in the management of laminitis, particularly in the stabilisation and recovery phase, where controlled frog pressure helps to support the pedal bone and the soft tissues of the foot. They are also used in other conditions where direct frog support is clinically indicated. The Vulcan drop-forged construction ensures consistent quality across sizes, and the shoe is available in a range of sizes to cover the full spread of horses likely to require heart bar shoeing. A specialist therapeutic shoe for farriers working closely with vets in managing horses with laminitis and other significant hoof conditions.
