Four Point Aluminum Shoes The Rail Shoe The four point rail is a versatile shoe designed


to decrease deep flexor pull by reducing break- over and elevating the heels. The degree of mechanics indicated by the shoe is dependent on several factors; palmar angle, sole depth, horn-lamellar zone integrity, capsule shape and strength, trim, fit and application. To best utilize the desired level of mechanics, much consideration must precede the planning stage. Well positioned, soft tissue detail radiographs are extremely helpful for farriers and veterinarians as they discuss and design adequate mechan- ics that will reduce the forces at play. When to use: The shoe is used for mid- to high-level laminitis cases. Used in conjunction with


derotation and a deep flexor tenotomy, it is normally glued on with Equilox®. When mid/high-scale mechanics are indicated (10º - 15º palmar angles), and


surgery is not an option, the shoe is rockered mid-body to offer zero palmar angle with the heel of the shoe and a self adjusting 20º palmar angle as PIII relates to the ground surface. Using this technique

The Narrow Rail Shoe


This shoe is a narrow version of the original rail to better suit long narrow feet.
