Heavy-Duty 10-Frame Queen Excluder

Choose a more substantial queen-excluder design for repeated apiary use with the Heavy-Duty 10-Frame Queen Excluder from Hornsby Beekeeping Supplies.

This model combines precise wire spacing with an extra-wide, powder-coated surround intended to improve durability around one of the parts most often contacted by the hive tool.

Powder-Coated Outer Surround

The outer frame is powder coated for extended service.

The broad rim also helps protect the excluder wire from hive tools when supers are lifted and separated.

That additional edge protection can be valuable where excluders are used season after season.

Precise Worker-Bee Openings

Wire spacing ranges from approximately 4.12mm to 4.22mm.

This allows worker bees to move between brood and honey boxes while keeping the queen restricted below.

Keep Brood Out of Honey Supers

The excluder is placed directly above the brood chamber.

Where bees are willing to work through it, the super above can be used primarily for honey storage rather than brood rearing.

That can simplify harvest and honey-frame management.

10-Frame Configuration

This model suits wider 10-frame Langstroth equipment.
