Superior haemostasis: Tunic ties off vessels for minimal complications
Wide jaw opening: Equine tool for stallion use only
This castrator must ONLY be used under a general anaesthetic.
Revolutionary castration technique developed in USA. The emasculator handle is fitted into a variable speed power drill which is operated to twist the cord until it breaks, using a closed castration technique. The tunic effectively ties off the vessels, providing superior haemostasis and minimising complications. The cattle instrument is suitable for bulls (to 600kg) or for miniature horses. A DVD is available showing how to use the instrument (or it can be viewed on the Shoof website). The major design difference between the Henderson Equine Castrating Instrument and the Henderson Castrating Tool for cattle is a wider opening in the plier jaws to accommodate the larger cords in stallions. Because of this, we recommend that you use the Henderson Castrating Instrument on stallions only.
