HSGM Tail Docker with Support Bracket for Piglets & Lambs
Safe and Reliable Tail Docking with the Tail Docker with Support The tail docker with support from Kerbl is designed for professional tail docking on piglets and lambs. The heated blade cuts the tail while simultaneously cauterising the wound – significantly lowering the risk of infection entering the fresh cut. The special pincer bracket acts as a tail catcher, letting you carry out the procedure single-handedly. Typically, a stump of around 2–3 cm remains. Docking is mainly used to prevent tail biting among pigs, which long tails can encourage during rearing and fattening. Always observe your local animal welfare regulations.

HSGM: clean cuts with heat
HSGM GmbH is based in Höhr-Grenzhausen. The company develops and manufactures hot cutting tools for foams and technical textiles, with production in Germany. The advantage over scissors or a knife: the hot blade cuts ropes, webbing, fabrics and plastics and seals the cut edge at the same time. Nothing frays, and the material stays strong at the cut.
HSGM at Agrarzone
We stock the HSGM hot cutter with type R cutting tip. Around the farm and the stable you will reach for it whenever plastic ropes and tapes need cutting to length: lead ropes, tie ropes, electric fence tape and rope, nets or straps. It is also a handy helper in the saddlery, for crafts and in the workshop, as sealed ends last much longer than plain cut ones.
Frequently asked questions
Which materials can I cut with the HSGM hot cutter?
It is suitable for synthetic materials such as polypropylene, polyester or nylon. Natural fibres such as cotton or hemp do not melt and cannot be sealed with it.
What do I need to watch out for while working?
The tip gets very hot. Work on a heat-resistant surface, make sure there is good ventilation and put the tool back in its stand after cutting until it has cooled down.
