Road Nails

[NoviceNic]

Do road nails wreck rubber matting????? I only hack out once a week at the moment. The Tom Thumbs my farrier puts in dont wear down enough and we still slip everywhere. So I was wondering about Road Nails....:confused:

they shouldn't do :confused: they're exactly the same as normal nails but I think they've got titanium heads which are better for gripping road surfaces, they're not like studs and they dont stick out, your rubber matting should be fine :)

Joe has those tungsten doofers in his shoes - (not sure what correct name is) but they don't wreck his rubber matting. They sure work too - stopped him slipping many times!

We have titum pins rather than road nails. FaNTASTIC. No damage to the mats either all for £5 a set as well

Fern has borium welded into her shoes this sure stops slipping, but does not wreck my matting

Rio had road nails when she was shod and they had no effect on our matting :)

I have had my mats down for over 10 years & no probs with road nails.

My rubber mats have been down for donkey's years and we always use road nails.
