Engineered for Strength and Durability
The S650 Semi‑Permanent Sheep Yard is manufactured from high‑quality galvanised steel, precision cut using CNC jigs to guarantee accuracy and consistency. Every hurdle is supplied with 16 mm pins, included as standard, and features an extended foot plate with a hole that allows the pin to be secured or bolted to the ground.
This design ensures stability under heavy use while providing flexibility for semi‑permanent installation. The permanent sheep rail construction adds extra strength, making the S650 suitable for long‑term use in demanding farm environments.
Efficient Sheep Flow with V‑Race and Drafting
At the heart of the S650 system is the V‑Race with 3‑Way Draft module, designed to streamline sheep movement and sorting. The V‑Race encourages natural flow, reducing hesitation and stress, while the draft module enables quick and accurate sorting by weight, tag, or treatment requirements.
For farms requiring more complex operations, the system can be upgraded to a 5‑Way Draft, offering even greater flexibility.
Straight Drenching Race – Practical Efficiency
The inclusion of a straight drenching race makes the S650 particularly effective for routine treatments such as drenching, vaccinating, or health checks. This race design ensures sheep move smoothly and consistently, reducing handling time and improving efficiency during flock management tasks.
