Cattle and calves feed troughs
Very strong cattle feeding troughs at affordable prices.

Attention is given to detail with the build of feeding troughs, so that we can offer farmers the best quality feeding troughs, which is cost effective and also look good on their farms.

Cattle feeding troughs are 700 wide, 550 high and built in lengths of (meters)
2,4m  -  3 m  -  4m  -  6m.

The feeding troughs are built with a strong steel frame of 38x38 square tube and 50x25 rectangular tube.

The farmer has a choice of steel thickness of 1,6mm - 2mm - 3mm thick steel frame. All the steel use to build 3mm thick steel frames, are 38x38 square tube that is 3mm thick.

Corners  are cut 45 degrees and welded all around, which is much stronger welding. No water can get into the steel frames. The steel frame is painted with red oxide paint and then with black industrial paint.

Almost 60% of feeding troughs that we sell, are to farmers who previously bought feeding troughs from us.

Conveyor
Full thicknesws conveyor used in cattle feed troughs

We only use full thickness ply conveyor, which is strong enough to carry the weight of cattle. We do not use splitted conveyor.

We drill 7mm holes through the steel frame and conveyor. The conveyor is bolted to the steel frame with a 7mm bolt, 20mm washer and nut. The bolt and nut are welded together so that it will not come loose.

For cattle that moves feed troughs
Hit a Y-standard through the square tubes into the ground to stop cattle moving the feed troughs

We weld 50x50 square tube on the corners of the feed trough.

Hammer Y-standards through the square tubes into the ground.

2 x Square tubes on the front two corners
R 40 per feeding trough

4 x Square tubes on the four corners
R 80 per feeding trough
