"bar of wall"

After comparing two figures of the anatomy of a horse hoof, I think that the English equivalent of "Eckstrebe" must be: "bar of wall".

Web page in German:
http://www.hufnet.de/Wissen/Eckstrebe/eckstrebe.html (Abb.1)

Web page in English:
http://muextension.missouri.edu/xplor/agguides/ansci/g02740.... (Fig. 1)
or
http://www.geocities.com/equisak/page14.html (5.th figure)

It says: "...For example, if they get a sharp stone or pebble caught between the Frog and the Bar of Wall then it will not only be painful to the horse...
http://www.geocities.com/equisak/page14.html

In the figure on the German web page, this sentence makes sense for the area mentioned.

**** BUT OTHER WORDS ARE ALSO USED ****

Another figure on a different site says just "wall" for that region (if i understood correctly):
http://www.webcom.com/~alauck/health/hoof.html (the 3rd. figure)

And something else :)
on another web page, it says "bars" for that region:
