• Size : 30 cm
• Model No : SH-18
• Product Material : Stainless Steel
• Size : 50 x 10 x 10 CM

Features

• Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel: Forged from high-quality SS to ensure rust resistance and durability in wet barn or field environments.
• Blunt/Rounded Tips: Specially engineered tips apply concentrated pressure without puncturing or damaging the sensitive sole tissue.
• High-Leverage Handles: Long, ergonomic handles allow the operator to apply significant pressure using just one hand, leaving the other free to stabilize the limb.
• Smooth, Polished Finish: The mirror-polished surface prevents debris buildup and allows for rapid sterilization between different animals.

Applications

• Abscess Localization: Primary tool for finding the exact "hot spot" of a subsolar abscess before drainage.
• Lameness Exams: Used as a standard step in equine and bovine lameness evaluations to rule out foot pain.
• Nail Sensitivity Check: Used after shoeing to detect "hot nails" or "street nails" that have been driven too close to sensitive tissue.
• Post-Trimming Evaluation: Ensures that a recent hoof trim has not left the sole too thin or sensitive.

Usage

• This Product is mainly use in Animal Surgery.
• Hoof Preparation: Thoroughly clean the hoof of all mud, manure, and stones to ensure direct contact with the tool.
• Baseline Testing: Start by testing a known "sound" (healthy) foot to establish the animal's normal baseline reaction to pressure.
• Systematic Approach: Begin at one heel and move in small 1-inch increments around the white line toward the toe, then back to the opposite heel.
• Repeat Findings: If a reaction is found, move to a different area and then return to the suspect spot to confirm the sensitivity is repeatable.
