Express Daos Calor Type Gas Dehorner with Hose
Description
Express Daos Calor Type Gas Dehorner
The Express Daos Calor Type Dehorner is a classic gas dehorner supplied with a 1.5m hose and a 2 bar / 29psi regulator, designed to run from large butane or propane gas cylinders. It is built for livestock keepers, stockpeople and farm staff who need a light, serviceable disbudding tool for routine herd work.
The Daos Classic handset weighs just 300g for easy handling and includes a support stand, while the reversible brass tip offers 17mm on one side and 20mm on the other to suit different horn bud sizes. Best for farms already running large gas cylinders who want a straightforward handset rather than a battery or mains unit.
