The Nghia Export Metal Hoof P-08 is a professional manicure and pedicure instrument specifically designed for carefully cleaning the nail plate and precisely removing cuticles, cuticles, membranes , and residue from gel and acrylic products. Thanks to the combination of two functional sides, this tool is a versatile tool for daily professional use.
The metal hoof is made of high-quality polished stainless steel , the same material used in surgical instruments. This guarantees a long service life, excellent wear resistance, and maximum hygiene. The smooth surface facilitates thorough cleaning and prevents product residue from adhering.
The Nghia P-08 features two distinct, precision-formed tips . One side is a slightly curved, beveled knife-like point with a 4.5mm blade width, ideal for loosening and removing stuck cuticles and product residue. The other side is a rounded, convex chisel with an 8mm blade width, perfect for gently and evenly pushing back the cuticle and smoothing the nail plate.
The lightly serrated handle provides a firm, non-slip grip and prevents slipping while working, even during precision work or longer treatments. With a total length of 13.3 cm and a weight of only 20 grams , this instrument is lightweight, perfectly balanced, and comfortable to use.
The metal hoof is fully suitable for professional disinfection and sterilization . The instrument can be easily cleaned using chemical, thermal, and chemical-thermal methods, including autoclave sterilization. This ensures it meets the high hygiene standards required in professional nail salons.
Sterilization and disinfection
Autoclave: basic sterilization at 121°C for 15 minutes ; deactivation temperature 132–134°C at a pressure of 3 bar .
Chemical disinfection: use only suitable agents and always follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
