SPECIFICATION: The Iowa hog holders are standard with 3/16" galvanized aircraft cables, 3 3/4" length solid steel T-handles and 5/8" diameter durable, high strength carbon steel tubing and rods that are nickel plated and corrosion resistant.
The #27350 Iowa hog holder is 37" in overall length, 4 1/2" rubber grip handle, 26" length rod and a 25" loop cable. A removable locking ratchet will hold any position along the rod, and the cable easily adjusts at the handle.
Repairs and replacement parts are available upon request.
OBJECTIVE: To aid in the humane restraint of swine for the purpose of animal control, safety of handling, and applications related to medical procedures.
APPLICATION: Grasp the hog holder with the rod in one hand and the other hand on the T-handle with the cable loop fully extended. Approach the animal from the front. Insert the cable loop into the mouth and pull on the T-handle to tighten the cable around the snout. When the cable is tight, keep constant tension on the T-handle to secure application. Proceed with caution.
When objective is accomplished, cautiously remove the cable by pushing forward on the T-handle while grasping the rod with one hand and pull the instrument away from the animal.
