Specs & features.
The pin is a slender, ultra-sharp metal shaft. It securely holds the male component of the ear tag. When the applicator's handles are squeezed, the pin acts as a guide, piercing the animal's ear cleanly to lock the tag into the female backer. It is a consumable part designed to be removed and swapped when worn out.
