FAQs
How many studs are included in one pack?
Each pack of Liveryman Large Studs contains 5 individual studs.
Can I use these on hard ground?
No, these large studs are designed specifically for loose or soft ground; using them on hard surfaces can be uncomfortable for the horse and may cause injury.
How often should I clean the stud holes?
You should clean the stud holes after every single use to prevent rust and the accumulation of debris that makes future installation difficult.
Do I need a special tool to install these?
Yes, a standard stud spanner or stud key is required to ensure they are seated tightly against the shoe.
What is the best way to store the studs when not in use?
Store them in a clean, dry container, ideally with a light coating of oil to prevent oxidation between events.
Troubleshooting
Studs keep falling out during use
Ensure the shoe threads were completely cleaned of debris before installation and that the studs were tightened fully.
Difficult to thread the stud into the hole
The hole likely contains dried dirt or rust. Use a thread tap to recut the thread and clear the obstruction before trying again.
Excessive wear on the stud surface
This may indicate the studs are being used on surfaces that are too firm. Ensure the terrain is suitable for the size of the stud used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure that the stud holes in the horseshoes are thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, mud, and rust using a thread tap or professional cleaning tool. If the threads are clogged, the studs will not seat correctly, which can lead to loosening or damage to the shoe threads. When installing, tighten the studs firmly using an appropriate spanner or stud key. Post-competition, remove the studs immediately to prevent rusting within the shoe hole; it is highly recommended to fill the holes with cotton or dedicated stud plugs to keep them clean and debris-free. Store your studs in a dry, organized container, and periodically inspect the threads for signs of wear or deformation.
