Description

Precision Dehorning for Calves with Reliable Performance

The Barnes Precision Style Dehorner by WESTFALENINSTRUMENTE is engineered for safe, effective, and humane dehorning of calves aged 2 months to 1 year. Trusted by livestock professionals and veterinarians, this heavy-duty tool ensures smooth and controlled horn removal with minimal risk of trauma or complications.

Heavy-Duty Chrome Plated Steel Construction

Crafted from chrome-plated steel, this 17″ long dehorner offers exceptional strength and rust resistance. Its oxidized finish further enhances durability, making it ideal for demanding farm and veterinary use in various environmental conditions.

Cupped Cutting Edges for Clean Removal

The cupped precision jaws (1-1/2″ x 3″) deliver clean, effective cuts, removing horn buds before the sinus cavity opens—minimizing the risk of infection. Perfect for early-stage dehorning, this design promotes faster healing and fewer complications.

Ergonomic Design for Maximum Control

Equipped with PVC compound grip handles, this dehorner provides comfort and a non-slip hold during use. Its balanced structure and straight stainless steel handles offer smooth operation with greater leverage and control during procedures.

Best Use Practices

Ideal for calves under 8 weeks, as early dehorning avoids sinus exposure and reduces risk of infection or fly strike. Recommended to avoid dehorning during summer and autumn due to higher infection risks.
