Heavy-Duty Galvanized Bullock Feed Trough

• Heavy-Duty Floor Feeding Design: Provides a low and accessible feeding position for beef cattle and growing stock.
• Fully Welded Construction: Continuous welded construction improves rigidity and durability for intensive livestock use.
• Hot-Dip Galvanized Finish: Provides corrosion protection for demanding agricultural environments.
• Stable Low-Profile Structure: A low centre of gravity helps maintain stability during normal cattle contact.
• Open Linear Feeding: Allows multiple cattle to access feed along the trough length.
• Reinforced Trough Body: Structural sections help resist deformation caused by feed load and repeated livestock contact.
• Freestanding Installation: Can be positioned directly on a suitable concrete floor or firm feeding-yard surface.
• Easy Cleaning: Open trough geometry provides convenient access for removing residual feed and routine washing.
• Indoor and Outdoor Use: Suitable for cattle barns, feedlots, yards and outdoor feeding areas.
• Customizable: Dimensions, steel thickness, reinforcement and protective coating can be adapted according to project requirements.

• Feed Pan: Long formed steel trough for holding cattle feed and mixed rations.
• End Support Plates: Wide end sections provide stable floor contact and reinforce the trough body.
• Internal Cross Bracing: Helps maintain trough width and structural rigidity.
• Welded Joints: Provide a strong continuous structure suitable for repeated commercial use.
• Galvanized Surface: Protects the steel structure against normal agricultural corrosion.
• Floor-Level Base: Allows direct placement without a separate elevated supporting frame.

• Place the trough on a firm, flat and level concrete floor or other stable feeding surface.
• Provide sufficient access space for cattle and feeding equipment around the trough.
• Position the trough so all supporting surfaces contact the floor evenly.
• Remove stale feed and accumulated debris regularly to maintain feed hygiene.
• Inspect welded joints, end plates and reinforcing components periodically for deformation or damage.
• Repair damaged galvanized surfaces promptly to minimize localized corrosion.
• When prolonged contact with silage or mineral-rich material is expected, apply a suitable food-safe or non-toxic protective coating to contact areas.
• Renew the protective coating periodically when the trough is empty, clean and dry.
• Clean and dry the trough before extended periods of storage or non-use.

Q: What is the reference size of the heavy-duty bullock trough?
A: The reference configuration measures approximately 2440 mm long, 420 mm wide and 190 mm deep.

Q: Is the trough fully welded?
A: Yes. The reference design uses fully welded construction for durability and structural rigidity.

Q: Does the trough require support legs?
A: No. It is designed for direct floor-level installation on a suitable firm and level surface.

Q: Can the trough be used outdoors?
A: Yes. Its hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion protection for normal indoor and outdoor agricultural applications.

Q: Can it be used for silage?
A: Yes, but prolonged exposure to acidic silage can affect galvanized surfaces. A suitable food-safe or non-toxic protective coating is recommended for prolonged contact.

Q: Can the dimensions be customized?
A: Yes. Length, width, depth, steel thickness and reinforcement can be customized according to project requirements.

Q: Is the trough suitable for commercial beef farms?
A: Yes. It is designed for beef cattle, bullocks and growing cattle in barns, feedlots and outdoor feeding areas.

Q: Can it be supplied as part of a complete cattle farm project?
A: Yes. Trough specifications and feeding layouts can be coordinated with cattle housing, feed alleys, yards and complete livestock farm projects.
