Merlin® Mini Hoof Trimming Set (Equine)

Merlin® Mini Hoof Trimming Set (#10095) is designed for people who have miniature horses. You can use the Merlin® to remove excess hoof material, clean pith from the sole area and dress flare from the hoof wall - using one of two different trimming blades in this set.

Choose from the garnet colored tungsten carbide disc - designed with the miniature horse in mind. It’s two inches in width and is used to remove hoof material through abrasion. Using this disc on the variable speed grinder isn’t intimidating to the horse or user and makes it easy and effective to trim small hooves. It doesn’t get any easier than this. The set also includes the 4-tooth chain disc which is the primary trimming blade. This disc may also be used on miniature horses and we’ve found that it’s preferred by a lot of the customers that use the tool. Although easy to use on the hoof but can be a little overwhelming to novice users. The chain saw disc can be used on both a standard and a draft horse which makes this set the right choice for horse owners with different size animals.

Either disc will work effectively on the miniature horse hoof; it just depends on what you’re comfortable with. Some customers have started out using the Garnet disc, becoming comfortable with the tool, practiced using the chain saw blade on a piece of wood and then moving to the hoof.
