-
Less squawking
Round bore liner with reinforced barrel creates a progressive, two-stage collapse for greater vacuum stability.
-
Less ringing and congestion
Shallow vacuum chamber keeps mouthpiece vacuum low,
reduces ringing/congestion, improves comfort and speed.
-
Less twist
Longer skirt with scalloped extension and locking wedges reduces twisting in 06 style shells.
-
Better unit alignment
Short milk tube with compression ribs and hinge points
permits more flexible alignment on a range of cows.
-
High capacity milk tube
-
Long-lasting performance for up to
2,500 cow milkings
Everything you’ve ever
wanted in a low-slip liner. And less.
Twist- and slip-resistant from top to bottom.

Short milk tube: Wider is better.
-
Large inside diameter promotes higher milk flow with greater vacuum stability.
-
Two notches allow bending in the natural direction of the milking machine.
-
Lengthwise ribs maintain inside diameter without kinking for unrestricted
milk flow.
-
Better unit alignment on a wide range of cows.
Why do liners slip?
Liner slips or fall-offs during milking have
several causes, including:
-
Vacuum set lower than 11 inches Hg*
-
Blocked air vents
-
Kinking in the short milk tube
-
Poor alignment or uneven weight distribution in cluster
-
Poor liner condition
* For milking at very low vacuum levels, consider Evolution® X by Conewango
Benefits of low slip:
-
Improved overall cow comfort
-
Reduced kicking and stepping during milking
-
More complete, gentle massage
-
Fewer reattachments and disruptions in milking routine
-
Reduced incidence of new mastitis infections
-
Improved milk flow and yield
A higher standard in milk liners.
-
Variation in barrel wall thickness results in a progressive,
two-stage, controlled collapse.
-
In first stage, inner walls come together at an engineered collapse
point while outer walls resist collapse.
-
In second stage, air continues to flow up side channels
past teat, feeding the vacuum chamber.
-
Controlled collapse provides greater
stability with virtually no slippage in
field tests at significantly lower vacuum.
