The Sternum Bar is designed as an option for Arrowquip’s lineup of livestock crushes. The newest version comes fully sheeted to prevent hoof traps, and is easily installed with two bolts. The purpose of the Brisket Bar is to keep cattle from going down in the crush by supporting the sternum and limiting space at the bottom of the crush to keep them upright during stressful situations such as AI, TB testing, and pregnancy checks. This is an effective option for high-stress cattle who are prone to lying down in the crush, and can be removed quickly and easily when it is not required.
