Duke #160 Body Trap

Duke #160 Body Grip Trap

The Duke #160 Body Grip Trap is a heavy-duty, double-spring designed for trappers who need a larger jaw spread and increased striking force. With its 6" x 6" jaw spread, it is the ideal mid-sized body grip trap, offering the perfect balance between the compact #155 and the large #220.

Engineered for a quick and ethical harvest, the #160 is a premier choice for raccoon, fisher, and groundhogs, providing the frame size necessary to handle larger-bodied furbearers with ease.

Key Features

• Powerful Double-Spring Action: Equipped with two heavy-duty springs to ensure maximum firing speed and consistent closing pressure, even in the toughest conditions.

• Optimal 6" x 6" Frame: The increased jaw spread provides a larger target area, making it highly effective for trail sets, den entrances, and "bucket sets" where a larger opening is required.

• Field-Proven Durability: Built with high-grade steel and Duke’s signature rugged construction, this trap is designed to perform season after season in mud, ice, and debris.

• Four-Way Trigger: Features a sensitive, adjustable trigger system that allows for precise customization based on your target animal and the specific set configuration.

Why Choose the Duke #160?

• The Groundhog Specialist: While it is a staple on the fur line, the #160 is also a top-tier tool for property owners looking to manage groundhogs and other burrowing pests.

• Increased "Pass-Through" Rate: The 6-inch opening allows animals to enter the trap with less hesitation, making it perfect for "blind sets" in established runs and trails.

• Versatile Environment Use: Equally effective on dry land (where legal) or in semi-aquatic sets for larger raccoons and mink.

Technical Specifications

• Target Species: Raccoon, Fisher, Groundhog, and Pine Marten.

• Jaw Spread: 6" x 6"

• Spring Type: Double Coil Body Grip

Note: Due to the high spring tension, the use of a setting tool is recommended. Always check your local and state trapping regulations regarding jaw-spread limits and placement requirements for body-gripping traps.
