Star Ridge Gauges, Caliper & Tape measure

Hoof Meter Reader hoof gauge

Angles and lengths are some of the best
indicators of hoof balance and health. They
should be checked at each trimming session, or
as necessary, like you would check the oil in
your car. The Hoof Meter Reader® enables you
to do the job quickly, easily, and accurately.

The unique design allows greater accuracy than
other gauges. There is no need to pick up the
hoof as the Hoof Meter Reader measures the
hoof right on the ground for the truest possible
reading. It is easy to use - just turn the yellow
or white dials and read the results. The
instructions are right on the gauge; no math or
calculations are necessary. Shaded areas of dial
give you a “quick reference” to determine if
angles and length are very natural, natural, or
unnatural.

Made of high quality, long lasting PVC, the Hoof
Meter Reader is as flexible as a credit card.

Vernier Caliper

The vernier caliper enables extremely
accurate meauring for trimming and
professional booting. Indispensable for
measuring and tracking 4th dimensional
changes in hoof mass as described in
Natural Hoof Care Bulletin #108, including
healing of hoof contraction, club foot,
laminitis, and other hoof pathologies.
