A teat slitter is a surgical instrument used primarily in livestock management and veterinary medicine to address issues with the teats of dairy animals, such as cows, goats, and sheep
- Purpose: The tool is designed to make controlled, precise incisions in the teat canal to relieve blockages, treat infections like mastitis, and improve milk flow.
- Design: Teat slitters are typically made from surgical-grade stainless steel for durability and easy sterilization. The rings on the handle provide a secure grip for the user to ensure precise control during procedures.
- Usage: The use of this instrument should be performed only by trained professionals, such as licensed veterinarians or certified animal health technicians, to prevent injury, infection, and permanent damage to the animal's udder.
