The Kurraglen Sheep and Goat V Sided Drafting Race: Australian Made Single File Drafting That Actually Works

Getting sheep or goats to move through a drafting race in single file without turning back is one of those yard management challenges that the right equipment solves quickly. The Kurraglen V Sided Drafting Race is manufactured in Australia from Australian steel as a single welded unit, not bolted or pinned together like many imported alternatives, which makes it stronger, quieter, and more reliable in everyday use. The V sided design does the work of keeping animals in single file and reducing the chance of them turning around, so you spend less time wrestling with the race and more time actually getting through the mob.

Why the V Sided Design Makes a Real Difference With the Kurraglen Sheep and Goat V Sided Drafting Race

The V shaped sides of this drafting race are not just a design choice, they serve a practical purpose. By narrowing as animals move through, the V sides naturally encourage sheep and goats to stay in single file and reduce the opportunity for them to turn around and cause a jam in the race. That means better flow, less time spent clearing blockages, and a smoother drafting session overall. It works equally well for sheep and goats, making it a versatile option for mixed operations running both species through the same yards.

Built Stronger and Quieter Than Imported Alternatives With the Kurraglen Sheep and Goat V Sided Drafting Race

One of the key differences between this race and imported options is how it's manufactured. The Kurraglen drafting race is built as a single unit rather than being bolted or pinned together, which means there are no loose connections to rattle, no pins to work themselves loose over time, and no weak points where a bolted joint might eventually give way under pressure. The result is a stronger and quieter race that holds up better under the kind of daily use a working farm puts it through, and that keeps animals calmer during the drafting process because there's less noise coming from the equipment.
