Original THH Special Adhesive – Reliable hold for glue-on tabs on horse hooves THH Special Adhesive has been specifically developed for the durable and horse-friendly attachment of glue-on tabs (e.g., THH glue-on collars, rbCarbon, or Wolf Busch systems) to the hoof wall. This high-performance, one-component cyanoacrylate adhesive creates an exceptionally strong bond between the tab and the hoof wall—completely eliminating the need for nails and ensuring no adhesive comes into contact with the sole. Which version is right for you? A comparison: Red vs. Blue Both versions offer the same high final bond strength but differ in their consistency (viscosity): • RED version (thin/low-viscosity): Sets very quickly and spreads in an ultra-thin layer beneath the tab. Ideal for smooth, well-prepared hoof walls and for situations where a fast application process is required. • BLUE version (thicker/gel-like): Does not run as easily; perfect for compensating for minor irregularities on the hoof wall and for neatly sealing the edges of the tabs against dirt and moisture. Your benefits at a glance • No blow-drying required: Unlike many other hoof adhesives, THH Special Adhesive utilizes residual natural moisture to cure. This eliminates the need for tedious blow-drying of the hoof or keeping the horse confined overnight. • Stress-free application: The bond reaches full load-bearing strength within just a few seconds—making it ideal even for restless horses. • Suitable for all seasons: Cures reliably in both warm summer conditions and cooler temperatures. • Breathable system: By bonding exclusively to the hoof wall, the sole remains free, preserving the natural hoof mechanism. Application instructions for optimal bonding results 1. Preparation: Lightly sand the hoof wall in the area to be bonded, ensuring it is clean, sound, and free of any loose horn material or grease. 2. Attachment: Position the bonding tab of the prepared glue-on horseshoe, apply the special adhesive, and press the tab firmly into place for a few moments. 3. Weight-bearing: Lower the hoof to the ground—the adhesive will cure within a few seconds and be ready to bear full weight. Storage tip: Seal the bottle airtight immediately after use, wipe the dispensing tip clean, and store the special adhesive in a cool, dry place (e.g., in a refrigerator). Scope of delivery: • 1x bottle of THH special adhesive (20g) in your chosen version (red or blue)
