The spread of heat depends on where your shoe is positioned in the forge. It should be right in the middle so that the heat spreads evenly through it

What is the difference between "normal" hardness and "titadur"?
Two materials are available to you. "Normal" hardness for all disciplines where wear is not excessive (sports horses) and "titadur" hardness recommended for endurance horses where the shoes become prematurely worn. It is therefore important to take account of certain factors like type of ground, the weight of the horse and the distance to be covered to decide the right choice of material.

Can ACR shoes be worked cold?
