Increase safety during AI with a Bó Steel anti-backing bar.
One of the easiest and cheapest ways to improve the safety of your cattle crush is to add an anti-backing bar. These devices clamp onto the existing crush rails and can be moved into position behind a single animal or a group of animals. Once pressure is put onto the backing bar, it locks in place, preventing the animals from moving backward, hence the name.
There are numerous models on the market but Bó Steel Ltd has devoted a lot of time and effort into engineering their robust backing bar design just right.
Key Features:
The Bó Steel backing bar has a unique feature in that the bar can be withdrawn horizontally or it can also pivot on the crush rail. This makes if a very versatile tool when working on cattle in a cute or race.
It makes jobs such as dosing, testing, or carrying out any inspection a lot easier and safer.
If you have a Bó Steel backing bar on your crush you can have the peace of mind that the next time you have to work in the crush, it will be safe and controlled.
Bó Steel regularly sells these backing bars to vets and AI technicians. For these professionals, a backing bar is an essential piece of kit to have when they find themselves having to enter a cattle crush and work behind an animal.
There are two models to choose from, a 48mm (2 inch) version and a 60mm (2.5 inch) version. Which one you buy will depend on the size of the crush rail in your cattle crush.
Avail of a discount when purchasing both models.
