Spillane Concrete Footbath

The Spillane Concrete Footbath appears to be a specialized piece of equipment designed for the management of hoof disorders and lameness in animals, particularly during wet weather. Here are the key features: -Purpose: The footbath is designed to address hoof disorders and lameness in animals. It provides a solution for easily disinfecting and cleaning the hooves of lame animals. -Material: The footbath is made of concrete, which is likely chosen for its durability and resilience in an agricultural setting. Concrete is also relatively easy to clean and disinfect. -Usage: The process of using the footbath is straightforward. Users are instructed to fill the footbath with the desired disinfectant solution and encourage the lame animal to walk through it. This method ensures that the hooves are treated effectively. -Grooved Floor: The footbath features a grooved floor, providing better grip for the animals as they walk through. This is to enhance stability and reduce the risk of slipping during the treatment process. -Drainage System: The footbath is equipped with a drainage bung located 150mm from the floor. The grooved floor gently slopes towards the drainage bung, facilitating quick and efficient drainage once the treatment is completed. -Side Wall Design: The side walls of the footbath are higher and 125mm thick for strength. This design likely serves to contain the disinfectant solution, preventing unnecessary loss as the animal passes through. -Lifting Loops: Lifting loops are provided to assist in placing the footbath in a convenient spot on the farm. Please Note: Gate and side rails sold separately. Delivery is kerbside and receiver must have means to offload (forklift or other).
