Dalmar Carbon Fibre
Carbon fibre reinforced plastic is made from long thin sheets of graphite-like carbon packed to form a fibre and a resin.
It has the highest specific tensile strength of all the reinforced materials, and it has a high strength to weight ratio and low coefficient of thermal expansion.
The density of carbon fibre is also vastly lower than the density of steel.
Carbon fibre takes the form of several thousand long, thin strands of material which are mostly composed of carbon atoms.
Carbon Fibre Strike Protection
In the event of an accidental strike the force of the impact is distributed over the entire length of the boot and immediately deflected away from the horses Flexor Tendons and Suspensory Ligaments.

Fitting Instructions
Before fitting ensure that the horse’s legs and the insides of the boots are clean and free from stones or dirt.
While holding the protective panel against the back of the leg, wrap the single piece fastener all the way around the leg in one smooth motion.
The fasteners wraps anti-clockwise around the left side leg and clockwise around the right leg, like traditional bandages.
When applied correctly the brand labels should be facing forward.
When applied correctly the boots should not be free to slide up or down or rotate around the leg during use.
If the boot appears loose reapply it putting greater tension on the fastener.
When in use the hook and hoop fastener should be smooth, pressed down firmly and there should be little or no space for dirt to enter between the boot and the horse’s hoof.
