The 4th Generation Cattle Head Holder takes cattle control to a new level, with enhanced control and durability for optimal performance. Featuring an upgraded design with thicker and heavier components, this cattle head holder ensures you can perform treatments on your cattle safely and easily, no matter their size or temperament. The Cattle Head Holder is made up of two pieces - a bottom bar with a head scoop and top bar to secure the head and prevent thrashing. The two pieces move in a synchronized, scissor-style motion to clamp around the animal's head securely and provide the handler with up-close access to the animal's head without placing unnecessary stress on the animal.
The Hydraulic Head Sweep is a gentle and effective option that sweeps the cow's head to one side to minimize movement and control the head. This head restraint is made up of a straight bar that is mounted on the head gate of your Q-Power 104 or Powerlock 105 Series hydraulic chute, and is available in single or double bar based on your preferred way of working cattle. The Head Sweep is controlled by the hydraulics on your chute for a more efficient cattle working experience.
Controls Mounted on the Swing Arm
Head Sweep controls are mounted on the pivoting swing arm, enabling you to control the flow of cattle easily and effectively from any point on either side of your chute.
Secures the Animals Head
The Head Sweep gently pushes the cows head to one side, to provide the handler with better access to the neck to administer injections and complete other processing tasks.
No Manual Work
Hydraulic Power means less work for you, and can help save your back during a long day of working livestock.
Best When Combined with a Sternum Bar
The Head Sweep does not support the bottom of the animal's head, which may increase the possibility that a cow will go down in the chute under stress. Adding a sternum bar is a great option to keep your cattle upright in the chute and minimize processing delays caused by downed cattle.
