Safe and secure access to your cattle
- The heavy duty non-adjustable palpation cage includes access gates on both sides of the palpation cage.
- Each 66″ high access gate comes with a spring-loaded slam-latch. For operator safety, the plunger on the slam-latches engage automatically when the gate is closed.
- Both of the access gates can be swung into the palpation cage where they latch securely across the alley to block animals in the lead-up alley.
- Both of the access gates can also be swung out of the palpation cage. This allows the palpation cage to also act as a sorting alley for small animals.
- The palpation cage is designed to connect directly to other Hi-Hog products.
