Ear Tag Applicator
All of our animal identification ear tags are applied with this stainless steel hand-held ear tag applicator.
Designed to seal the ear tags with minimal pressure, while providing a good, secure seal, it can be used with or without the spring, which applies slight closing pressure to help hold the tag in the applicator prior to sealing.

Directions for Use
Ear tags should be washed in alcohol or disinfectant to help prevent infection to the ear. Place the mouse or rat ear tag in the ear tag applicator, keeping the “hole” side with the identification number flat against the jaw of the ear tag applicator. Locate the tag on the ear, applying behind a ring of cartilage. After crimping, be sure the tag point has come through the hole and is bent over, securing the ear tag properly.
Applicator Hints
Place the tag in the applicator keeping the “hole” side of the tag flat against the jaw of the applicator with the indentation. Locate the tag within the ear, applying beyond a ring of cartilage. After sealing, be sure to check that the tag point has come through the hole and bent around, sealing properly.
