The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter is a heavy-duty cattle lifting sling designed to provide broad body support when lifting and supporting weak, injured or down cows. It provides a practical way to assist cattle using suitable lifting equipment such as a front-end loader or bucket.
Rather than concentrating lifting pressure over a small area, the Supreme Cow Lifter uses a large supportive sling extending from the backside towards the brisket. This helps distribute the load over a larger area of the animal while providing controlled support during lifting.
The sling also incorporates an open area for the udder, helping reduce unnecessary pressure on the udder while the cow is being supported.
Available in Standard and X Large sizes, the Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter can accommodate different cattle types, including dairy and larger beef cattle.

The Standard Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter is designed primarily for medium-size dairy breeds and other appropriately sized cattle.
The X Large Cow Lifter is approximately 20cm longer than the Standard model and is designed to accommodate larger dairy breeds and beef cows.
Choosing the appropriate size is important because the sling needs to provide suitable body support while allowing the animal to be positioned correctly.
If you are uncertain which size is appropriate for your animal, contact Pet & Rural Supply Co before ordering.
A cow that is unable to stand can require careful management. The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter provides a means of supporting suitable cattle while lifting them with appropriate mechanical equipment.
The design differs from lifting systems that concentrate support around a relatively small section of the animal. Its large main sling supports the cow across a broader body area, helping spread the load and reduce concentrated pressure points.
The cow is supported from the backside towards the brisket, providing broad support underneath the animal during lifting.
The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter has been developed for medium-term support of weak and down cows for periods of up to approximately four hours.
The broad sling design makes it useful where an animal requires more than a brief lift and needs appropriate body support during the lifting period.
Animals using lifting or support equipment should be monitored carefully throughout use.
Dairy cattle require particular consideration around the udder when being lifted.
The Supreme Cow Lifter incorporates an open section that allows the udder to hang through the sling. This design helps prevent the main sling from placing unnecessary direct pressure across the udder.
This is an important feature when supporting dairy cows and other cattle with a developed udder.
The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter is manufactured using heavy-duty materials selected for livestock handling applications.
Construction includes reinforced PVC together with strong polyester webbing and thread. Metal components are plated, while the support system incorporates a leather-covered pad.
The result is a purpose-designed cattle lifting system intended for demanding farm and livestock applications.
The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter has a recommended maximum lift load of 1,000kg.
The weight of the animal, condition of the lifting equipment and suitability of all attachment points should be considered before attempting to lift livestock.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommended load or the safe working capacity of the equipment being used to perform the lift.
The Supreme Cow Lifter provides a practical way to lift suitable cattle using appropriate mechanical lifting equipment, such as a front-end loader or bucket.
Any lifting equipment used with the sling must be appropriate for the weight being lifted and operated safely by a competent person.
The animal should be positioned carefully and monitored throughout the lifting process.
The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter and a hip lifter provide different forms of cattle support.
The Supreme Cow Lifter uses a broad sling to distribute support over a larger section of the cow's body, while a hip lifter provides lifting assistance around the hip area.
For producers comparing these two cattle lifting systems, see the Vink Hip Lifter – Complete Cow & Cattle Lifter.
The appropriate lifting method depends on the animal's condition, size and the type of support required.
The Bainbridge Supreme Cow Lifter is supplied as a complete lifting kit including:
This provides a convenient way to keep the main lifting components together when the equipment is being transported or stored between uses.

For a different style of lifting assistance, compare the Vink Hip Lifter, which provides support around the hip area rather than using a broad full-body sling.

A down cow may be affected by injury, metabolic disease, calving complications, nerve damage, illness or another underlying condition. Lifting equipment assists with physical support but does not treat the underlying cause of an animal being unable to stand.
Seek veterinary advice for down, injured or seriously unwell cattle.
Always inspect the sling, webbing, hooks, lifting equipment and attachment points before use. Use only appropriate lifting machinery with sufficient capacity for the animal being supported.
Monitor the animal continuously while it is being lifted or supported and follow the manufacturer's operating instructions.
