FAQs
Are these springs and caps compatible with other brands of anti kick bars?
No, these spare parts are specifically designed and manufactured for use with NETTEX Agri Anti Kick Bars only.
How many springs and caps are included in a set?
Each set contains two (2) springs and two (2) caps.
How often should I check the springs and caps on my anti kick bar?
It is recommended to inspect the springs and caps regularly, ideally weekly, for any signs of wear, damage, or reduced tension.
Can I use these parts if my NETTEX anti kick bar is an older model?
These parts are designed as direct replacements. However, minor variations in older models might exist. It's best to compare visually with your current parts if possible.
What is the main purpose of the anti kick bar?
The anti kick bar is designed to prevent livestock, particularly cows, from kicking dangerously. This enhances safety for handlers and prevents injury to the animals themselves.
How do I know if I need to replace the springs and caps?
You should consider replacing them if the anti kick bar feels loose, if the springs have lost their tension, or if the caps are cracked or damaged.
Troubleshooting
Spring does not have enough tension
Ensure the spring is correctly seated and the cap is fully secured. If the spring is visibly damaged or stretched, replace it with a new one from the spare set.
Cap will not fit securely
Verify that you are using the correct cap for the spring and that no debris is obstructing the connection point. Ensure the cap is aligned properly before applying pressure.
Anti kick bar feels loose after replacement
Double-check that both springs and caps are installed correctly and fully engaged. Examine the anti kick bar itself for any damage that might be affecting its overall integrity.
