Overview

This magnet is designed for long-term retention inside a cow’s stomach to help prevent hardware disease. It uses a durable Alnico magnetic core to attract and retain ferrous materials ingested during feeding. The cylindrical capsule shape allows it to pass through the digestive tract and settle in the reticulum. It is encased in a smooth, non-toxic outer coating, making it safe for ingestion and resistant to stomach acids. Its shape and materials are specifically selected to support passive collection of sharp metal objects without harming the animal.

This rumen magnet helps protect cattle from internal injury caused by accidentally swallowed metal objects such as nails or wire. By settling in the reticulum, it draws in and holds these sharp items, reducing the risk of inflammation or infection. It functions passively and remains effective over the long term once ingested, helping to minimise veterinary interventions related to hardware disease.
