The Nghia Export Metal Hoof P-02 is a professional manicure and pedicure tool designed for extremely precise work on cuticles, the nail plate, and stubborn product residue. This tool is perfect for nail technicians, pedicurists, and salon professionals looking for a reliable, hygienic, and durable solution for preparing and refining the nail plate.
This metal hoof is designed to gently but effectively push back the skin and remove cuticles, cuticles, and membranes with extreme precision. It's also ideal for removing gel and acrylic residue from the nail plate without unnecessary damage to the natural surface. Its clever design allows you to work in a controlled, clean, and efficient manner – exactly what you need for a flawless finish with both manicures and pedicures.
The Nghia Export P-02 is made of polished stainless steel , the same type used in surgical instrument production. This means high corrosion resistance, a long service life, and a pleasant-to-use finish. The slightly serrated/notched handle prevents slippage and ensures a stable grip, even when working with gloves or when hands are slightly damp.
What makes this hoof trimmer extra practical are the two different, precision tips . You get a combination of a rounded tip for controlled retraction and a rectangular, sharper tip for precise cleaning and removing stubborn residue. The rectangular side is 4.5 mm wide , which is ideal for detailed work along the cuticle line and cleaning the nail plate.
Hygiene is essential in every salon. That's why this tool is designed to be safely disinfected and sterilized by any method : chemical, thermal, or chemical-thermal. This makes the Nghia Export Metal Hoof P-02 an excellent choice for professional environments where strict hygiene protocols are followed.
