Lightweight aluminum horseshoes are more durable than composites. So if your horse has hooves that grow different from how they should, metal will help keep the shape.Aluminium horseshoes offer several major advantages: Reduced muscular fatigue: Less stress on the horse's limbs. Improved locomotion: smoother stride and better recovery.
We use a robust aluminium shoe that is both light and has excellent wear characteristics. Haozhifeng®’ lightweight aluminum horseshoes will last at least 6 weeks the same as a nail on shoe.

Lightweight aluminum horseshoes compare with traditional steel horseshoes, aluminum horseshoes are significantly lighter. They can minimize the hoof load during a horse's movement, reduce muscle and joint fatigue, and lower unnecessary energy consumption.
Aluminum forms a dense oxide film on its surface, which effectively prevents rust and corrosion. Even if used in damp outdoor environments or on muddy tracks, the horseshoes are not easy to deform or deteriorate, maintaining stable performance during use.
Aluminum’s hardness is far lower than that of steel or alloy materials. Under high-intensity friction, the horseshoe surface wears out quickly. A single pair of aluminum horseshoes can usually only withstand one high-intensity race and needs to be replaced promptly afterward.
lightweight aluminum horseshoes have a moderate thermal conductivity, which can reduce the impact of extreme temperatures on horse hooves. In hot weather, it will not absorb too much heat and transfer it to the hoof; in cold weather, it will not conduct cold air to cause discomfort to the horse.
The core purpose of a horseshoe is to protect the horse's hoof. When a horse moves on rough ground, its hoof horn will wear down and even crack—just like human nails,it causes pain and injuries. Therefore, fitting horseshoes onto the horse just like adding durable soles to shoes, attaching a horseshoe effectively prevents excessive hoof wear and provides protection for the horse.
To fulfill this core function, the vast majority of horseshoes are made of steel or high-performance alloys. These materials are highly wear-resistant, delivering long-lasting protection. Thanks to their sturdy properties, they also enable horses to generate better traction and power during movement.
However, for speed horse racing, horses mostly wear aluminum horseshoes. While aluminum is far less hard and wear-resistant than steel, its key advantage lies in ultra lightweight performance. Every extra gram can be the difference between winning and losing in short distance races. Lightweight aluminum horseshoes minimize the horse’s load and energy consumption, allowing them to run faster on the track. A single pair of aluminum horseshoes may only last one high intensity race, but the speed advantage it brings is invaluable.
