Complete Opening-Action Head and Taildoor--Cattle enter and exit without hesitation

SILENCER: The Industry's most advantageous cattle flow in and out of chute, since SILENCER has complete opening-action headdoor and taildoor.

Old-Style Scissorgate: Cattle balk when entering scissor tailgate--narrow "V" at bottom of scissor causes cattle to balk, stumble, jump when entering and exiting.

Rotary attempt to copy: Rotary chute has old-style scissor on rear gate--cattle balk when entering, same as with any scissorgate chute.

Headdoor Closes Only as Far as Needed to Hold a Herd Bull, Yet Closes Only as Far as needed For a Short Yearling Calf

SILENCER: SILENCER's equal pressure, complete opening-action headdoor system combined with pressure relief valve allows SILENCER headdoor to operate at lower pressure than other chutes, yet SILENCER's headdoor closes only as far as needed to properly hold 350 lb. up to 2500 lb. animals.

Old-Style Scissorgate: Scissorgate has only a 400 lb. range of operation; scissorgate can't close down to hold head of small cattle, while the head of a large animal will slip up out of the scissorgate "V" and not be held securely.

Rotary attempt to copy: Rotary gate is a single-position gate--it's either open or it's shut, totally eliminating the option to properly hold different sizes of cattle.

Equal Pressure on Headdoor-Top to Bottom

SILENCER: Again, the SILENCER chute operates at the lowest pressure of any chute on the market, minimizing animal stress and injury. Because the pressure is distributed evenly on the headdoor top to bottom, there is no "nutcracker" effect.

Old-Style Scissorgate: Scissorgate design has the highest pressure located at bottom of the gate, increasing choking and shoulder damage, known as the "nutcracker" effect.

Rotary attempt to copy: Rotary gate causes choking on large cattle because it is a single-position gate and simply can't adjust to fit different sizes of cattle properly.

16" of Extra Neck Access Per Side, Including Adjustable Neck Extension Bars, for Precise Vaccination Placement

SILENCER: SILENCER's adjustable neck extension bars are designed with opening for easy neck access. And SILENCER's extra neck access sidegates provide neck access for even animals weighing under 500 lbs.

Old-Style Scissorgate: Neck bars designed with an opening for neck access are not compatible with the narrow "V" shape of the scissorgates--cattle can get their legs caught in the open neck bar area when exiting the chute, since scissorgates don't fully open out of animals way.

Rotary attempt to copy: Rotary gate has a design flaw of 10" of inaccessible neck area per side. On a 500 lb. animal with a total neck area of 12", the inaccessible 10" on the rotary gate makes reaching the recommended injection site impossible! Neck extension bars with neck access also not available on a rotary.
