Find the Right Calving Equipment for Every Stage

Build a practical calving kit with equipment for assisted delivery, newborn care and ongoing maintenance. This collection of calving aids includes manual ropes, Vink calving jacks, replacement components, umbilical clamps and iodine, helping you prepare for the different jobs that may arise during and immediately after birth.

Calving Ropes and Replacement Ropes

Reliable calving ropes provide a straightforward option when controlled manual assistance is appropriate. Choose from double-loop ropes and replacement Vink ropes, whether you are putting together a new kit or replacing ropes that have become worn, damaged or difficult to clean.

Keeping a spare set available also means clean ropes can remain ready while used equipment is being washed and disinfected.

Calving Jacks and Mechanical Aids

A suitable calving jack can help apply controlled traction while reducing reliance on manual strength alone. Different shaft lengths, head designs and pulling methods are available to suit varying cattle sizes, farm setups and working preferences.

Farmers working alone or managing larger beef cattle may benefit from a model designed for easier positioning or alternate traction. Existing equipment can also be maintained with replacement heads, ropes, plates, springs and bolts, avoiding the need to replace a complete unit when only one component is worn.

Umbilical Clamps, Iodine and Navel Care

Good preparation continues once the calf has been delivered. Umbilical clamps provide a dedicated option for cord management when required, while iodine supports a consistent calf navel care routine immediately after birth.

Keeping these products beside the calving pen removes the need to search the shed or improvise during the calf’s first important hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Choose according to the size of your cattle, the type of traction required and how you expect to use the equipment. Standard models may suit many dairy and suckler herds, while larger beef or continental cattle may require a wider or more robust calving jack.

The right shaft length depends on the size of your cattle and the amount of working space available. A 1600 mm model may be easier to handle and store, while an 1800 mm calving jack provides additional working length for larger animals or farmers who prefer a longer aid.

No, a complete replacement may not be necessary if the worn component can be changed separately. Replacement ropes, heads, springs, bolts and ratchet plates can help extend the life of compatible calving equipment.

Look for a suitable shaft length, secure head design, appropriate traction method and an easy-to-release ratchet. Durability, ease of cleaning, replacement-part availability and suitability for the size of your cattle should also influence the decision.
