Tail Docker for safe and fast piglet tail docking

The Kerbl tail docker is ready for use in less than a minute, making it ideal for direct use in the farrowing pen. The powerful transformer keeps the blade at a constant, optimal 750 °C during continuous use, enabling efficient, even work while significantly extending the lifespan of the heat-resistant stainless steel blade.

Thanks to its clever design, you can place the device securely on a surface or mount, leaving both hands free for precise work. The included adjustable spacer ensures uniform tail lengths of typically around 2 to 3 cm, supporting you noticeably in professional, consistent application in the barn.
