Welded into Werkman horseshoes to create therapeutic shoes

Individual weld-in inserts for the Werkman Ortho-Kit system, supplied as refill sets so farriers who already run the Orthokit 1.0 or 2.0 can restock the specific patterns they use most. Each insert is welded into a standard Werkman horseshoe to convert it into the required therapeutic shoe. The insert range covers the Orthokit 1.0 patterns - egg bar, heart bar, straight bar, straight bar performance, wide toe and wide branch - together with the Orthokit 2.0 patterns: Z-bar, central bar, spider plate and lateral extension. Werkman's refill sets are supplied per insert type in a choice of sizes, packed 20 pieces to a set. The Ortho-Kit system was developed from scientific research led by Dr. Jenny Hagen at the Veterinary-Anatomical Institute of Leipzig University, examining how shoeing modifications affect load distribution, bearing area, gait and phalangeal orientation. Please state the insert type and size required when ordering.

Refill insert sets for the Werkman Ortho-Kit system - egg bar, heart bar, straight bar, wide toe, wide branch, Z-bar, spider plate, central bar and lateral extension patterns in multiple sizes.
