Barnes Mechanical Calf Dehorner with 13/17mm Head

The Barnes Mechanical Calf Dehorner is a manually operated livestock tool designed for removing developing horns from young calves. Its long metal handles provide mechanical leverage, while the opposed cutting head is shaped to surround the horn base for controlled cutting.

Unlike electric or gas dehorners, the Barnes design requires no external power source, battery or fuel. This simple construction makes it suitable for cattle farms, calf rearing facilities, veterinary service teams and livestock equipment distributors requiring a durable mechanical dehorning option.

• Fully mechanical operation with no electricity, battery or gas required.
• Long metal handles provide leverage for controlled manual operation.
• Opposed cutting head surrounds the horn base during use.
• 13 mm and 17 mm reference configurations are available for different horn sizes.
• Textured handle grips improve operator control.
• Simple construction reduces routine maintenance requirements.
• Portable design is suitable for cattle handling areas and field use.
• Suitable for professional farms, livestock service teams and equipment distributors.

• Metal Handles: Long rigid handles generate the mechanical leverage required for cutting.
• Non-Slip Grips: Textured grip sections improve control during operation.
• Pivot Assembly: Transfers handle movement to the cutting mechanism.
• Opposed Cutting Head: Positions around the horn base before the handles are operated.
• Cutting Edges: Form the working surfaces that separate the horn when the tool is actuated.

The cutting head is positioned around the horn base of a properly restrained young calf. Movement of the long handles actuates the opposed cutting mechanism, using mechanical leverage to cut through the horn. Correct tool size, livestock restraint, pain management and professional operating procedures are essential for safe and appropriate use.
