Ultra Tagger Plus for 2-Piece Tags

Tagging goes faster with the right applicator in your hand. The Y-TEX applicator for two-piece tags is built for that job, and it moves quickly through a run of animals without the weight of a heavier tool. Its engineered thermoplastic body and precision metal parts are made for durable work through a busy tagging session.

The applicator is light and fast, so you keep the chute moving instead of stopping to reset a tool. Use it for Y-TEX two-piece tags. RFID and tamper evident tags are not for this applicator, so keep those jobs on their own tool.

Highlights

• Light body for easier handling
• Fast application for a smoother tagging run
• Reinforced engineered thermoplastics
• Precision metal parts
• For Y-TEX two-piece tags, except RFID and tamper evident

Why a dedicated applicator

A tool built for one tag system fits its parts better than a general applicator does. This applicator takes every Y-TEX two-piece tag except RFID and tamper evident tags, so the applicator and its tags work together from the first animal to the last. Keeping the right tool for the job is what keeps a tagging session on track.

It suits a cow-calf operation tagging its spring crop, a sheep or goat flock that needs regular tagging, or a farm that tags a few animals every season. Any operation with a regular tagging run needs one applicator that moves fast and holds up to repeated use.

At a glance

How to use it

1. Check that every tag you load is a Y-TEX two-piece tag, not an RFID or tamper evident one.
2. Restrain the animal in a chute or headgate so the tagging goes cleanly.
3. Position the applicator, then apply each tag in one steady motion.
4. Check that each tag sits flat and secure before you move on to the next animal.

Good to know

• Keep the applicator clean and dry between sessions so the moving parts stay smooth.
• Keep spare tags on hand for the next run, so a short count never holds up the chute.
• Use a separate applicator for RFID or tamper evident tags, so the right tool is always in the right hand.
• Pair it with the chute and headgate you already use for tagging runs.
