Ludomed’s sleeveless primate jackets are a durable and refined alternative to traditional monkey jackets, designed specifically to accommodate the natural behavior of macaques that often chew or tear sleeves. Based on our proven NHP jacket design, this version omits the sleeves while preserving core restraint functions, device protection, and study compatibility.
Sleeveless jackets reduce damage during use, increase longevity, and maintain comfort for the animal without compromising experimental integrity. Each model is tailored for species such as Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgus) and Macaca mulatta (rhesus), ensuring proper fit and support.
Key Applications
Intravenous infusion studies with tethered or ambulatory systems.
Surgical recovery where arm access is not needed.
Telemetry or implant protection without sleeve interference.
Long-term studies in environments where monkeys frequently damage sleeves.
Veterinary monitoring and general NHP restraint.
Animal Welfare & Refinement
Eliminates irritating sleeve materials.
Supports longer use without compromising restraint.
Reduces stress from repeated jacket replacements.
Minimizes handler intervention by improving durability.
Ordering & Customization
Available for rhesus and cynomolgus macaques in a full range of sizes. Optional accessories such as tether plates, rear rings, and leg loops can be included. Custom design modifications (fabric type, reinforcement zones, or additional access features) are available based on your study protocol. Contact us with details for tailored support.
