Agri Health Double Sided Straight Hoof Rasp

The Agri Health Hoof Rasp is a straight, double sided hoof rasp with a 12.5cm plastic handle, designed for routine hoof maintenance on horses and ponies. It is best for owners tidying chips and flares between farrier visits, and for farriers or trimmers who want a simple straight rasp in the kit.

Because the rasp has two working faces, you can shape the hoof wall with one side and smooth the finished edge with the other without swapping tools.

Key Features

  • Double sided design - one rasp covers shaping and finishing work

  • Plastic handle - 12.5cm handle for a controlled, secure grip
  • Yard practical - fits a grooming box, tack room shelf or travel toolbox
  • Easy upkeep - wipe clean and store dry to protect the cutting faces
  • Suits horses and ponies - useful for natives, cobs, warmbloods and youngsters in hand

How to Use

  1. Pick out and brush the hoof so the wall is clean and free of grit.
  2. Secure the horse safely and lift the foot into a comfortable working position.
  3. Use the coarser face with long, even strokes to take back excess hoof wall or remove chips and flares.
  4. Turn the rasp over and use the finer face to smooth and round the outer edge.
  5. Set the foot down regularly and check balance from the front and side as you work.
  6. Wipe the rasp clean, remove hoof dust and store it dry between uses.

FAQ

Is this hoof rasp double sided?
Yes. It is a straight rasp with two working faces, so you can shape the hoof wall with one side and smooth the edge with the other.

How long is the handle?
The plastic handle measures 12.5cm.

Can I use it on ponies as well as horses?
Yes. The straight profile suits horses and ponies of most types, including natives, cobs and warmbloods.

Do I need farrier experience to use a hoof rasp?
Basic tidying such as smoothing a small chip is common on the yard, but trimming affects hoof balance. If you are unsure, ask your farrier to demonstrate the correct technique first.

How should I look after the rasp?
Knock off hoof dust after use, wipe the rasp clean and store it somewhere dry so the cutting faces do not sit in moisture.

What should I do if the hoof looks damaged?
Stop rasping and contact your farrier or vet if you see deep cracks, heat, unusual wear or any sign of lameness.
