HorseGuard Stall Mats

#MAT12 ANTI CASTING STRIP

Cost effective , easy to install, highly efficient

When a horse becomes cast, it leans and rubs against the slippery walls searching for a foot hold to enable it to lever itself away from the wall and roll back into the middle of the stable. Bedding, banked around the walls is an expensive, time consuming chore and only partially successful.

HorseGuard anti cast strip is made from thick, vertically ribbed EVA to give enough purchase to the hooves enabling the horse to push itself over safely. It has proven to be a most efficient anti cast mechanism that gives owners peace of mind. Horses tend not to nibble the strips because it is unpalatable to them.

The anti cast strip is not only extremely efficient in helping horses recover from being cast, but it is also highly cost effective as it eliminates the need for banking.A bank uses two-three bales of shavings and this is no longer required when using the M12 anti casting strips.

Less bedding also means substancially reduced mucking out times. The M12 should be secured horizontally along the walls 18”- 39 “ above the floor. A typical installation on wood walled in a 12’x12’ box takes around fifteen minutes and uses eight strips.
