The Stur-D automatic headgate has proven to be one of the most reliable self-catching headgates on the market today. The headgate is big enough and rugged enough to handle the largest of animals, yet it can be adjusted to catch and handle calves in the 300 lb. range. Head size and neck size adjustments can be made in a matter of seconds with no need for tools. Dual controls make it easy to operate from either side of the animal and the neck bars are spring loaded to return them to the locked position automatically. A solid steel shaft is used as a timing bar rather than chains or cables which can break or stretch leading to animal or operator injury. Operator safety should always be a concern when choosing an automatic headgate.
