The Mustad Heel Wedge is engineered to assist in therapeutic and corrective shoeing by slightly elevating the heel relative to the toe. This subtle shift helps redistribute loading across the hoof, reduce strain on the deep digital flexor tendon, and support horses with navicular or heel pain. Available in three progressive sizes (0, 1 & 2), each wedge is crafted from wear‑resistant material ideal for use under shoes in combination with pads or directly on the hoof. Mustad’s precision manufacturing ensures a consistent taper and fit for easy integration into farrier work.
