Big Valley® Heavy Duty Use M-Series Headgates
The Self-Catch Headgate yoke is adjustable from both sides for a more precise fit and increased safety.
Optional Nek-Stender® bars pivot with the action of the yoke. Attaches to any Big Valley® chute and can
be set up for either right or left-hand operation. Designed to work on animals 300 lbs. and heavier.
The Manual Headgate features the "Pos-O-Lock" Ratchet System which insures that cattle are caught safely
and can't escape. The opening handle runs parallel to chute, out of the operator's way, providing plenty
of leverage to reduce operator fatigue. Its design makes the handle swing from behind the animal, which
encourages cattle to move through the unit. Right or left-hand operation. Attaches to any Big Valley®
Chute.
The Manual and Self-Catch Headgates have rounded contact points to prevent injury and grease zerks to
insure smooth performance. Both are available with exclusive Nek-Stender® bars.

Big Valley Unsheeted System Kits |
 |
A Durable, Economical System For Handling Cattle
The Big Valley® Unsheeted System is an economical and practical solution for handling cattle.
This unit works with you to promote both animal and operator safety. Its flexible design allows
either right or left-hand setup. Crowding gate includes a strong, automatic double-bar gate latch
to assist you in kickback situations. Standard alley systems are 28" wide, or if you prefer, select
an adjustable alley system with capabilities from 27" to 15" wide.
Rugged drop pin connectors. You get fast assembly and a more stable unit. Units are portable and retain
their value longer. Constructed of heavy gauge 2" dia. round tubing giving you greater lateral strength
than oval tubing of the same size.
Standard Sweep Panels are 5' 4" high while the Overhead Sweep Pen Brace unit is 6' 3-1/2" high. Alley
Arches are 6' 5-1/2" high. Cattle move smoothly with less stress on both the animal and the operator.
Features
• Floor Straps are 3/8" flat steel and last longer. Won't trip cattle.
• All panels use 3/16" x 1-1/2" center tie supports on both sides.
• Optional Sweep Pen Overhead Brace is highly recommended for adding extra strength and stability
to a 2 or 3 section sweep pen.
Crowd Alley Headgate Attachment hooks up to Crowd Alleys. Has 30" wide opening and 4 anchor supports.
For attaching any Big Valley® Headgate.
