Agri Health Electric Dehorner Replacement Tip
Description
Agri Health Electric Dehorner Tip - Replacement Heating Head
The Agri Health Electric Dehorner Tip is a replacement heating tip for an electric dehorner, used for disbudding calves. It is a spare part sold on its own and is intended for dairy farmers, beef producers, smallholders and stock keepers who already own an electric dehorner unit.
Tips are consumable. Once the working face is worn or heavily carboned, heat transfer drops and the job takes longer, so most units are kept on the farm with a spare tip alongside them.

- Restores clean, consistent contact with the horn bud

FAQ
Is the dehorner unit included?
No. This listing is for the replacement tip only. The dehorner body is sold separately.
Will this tip fit my dehorner?
Electric dehorners vary between makes and models, so check the tip size and fitting against your own unit before ordering. This is the most common reason a spare part does not suit.
How often should a dehorner tip be replaced?
There is no fixed interval. Replace the tip when the working face is worn, pitted or heavily carboned, or when heating becomes slow or uneven.
What is the tip used for?
It is used for disbudding calves with an electric dehorner, cauterising the horn bud so the horn does not develop.
How do I change the tip safely?
Always switch off, unplug and allow the dehorner to cool fully before removing or fitting a tip. Wear suitable gloves and keep the hot unit away from bedding and other people.
Is disbudding regulated?
Yes. Disbudding is subject to animal welfare legislation covering operator competence, calf age and anaesthesia or pain relief. Follow the rules that apply in your country and speak to your vet if you are unsure.
