RPM races ahead with motor sport technology in new headbail

RPM has taken the suspension technology used in motor sport and applied it to a new headbail which we believe will outperform and outlast any other product on the market. Our ÒRose-Joint Linkage HeadbailÓ is fitted with ball-joint links, the same suspension system used in race cars that are fully greaseable, and combine precision fit with a smoother action that bolted joints cannot deliver.

Maintaining precise control and minimal movement while counteracting the force of an animal is a tough job, especially when the headbail is exposed to grit, heat and moisture on a daily basis, which is why we believe bolted connections just donÕt cut it any more. Each ýÓ link is rated to an impressive 3.8 tonnes of static load, and the permissible dynamic loading is more than 1.5 tonnes.

The new Rose-Joint Linkage Headbail will be on display at agricultural shows and field days around the country this year.

There will be no cost for Rose-Joint Linkages on crushes which have the Superlock Headbail, which represents a saving of between $200-$300.
