Low-Level Cattle Feed Trough on Legs

• Low Feeding Height: Designed to provide comfortable access for beef cattle, growing stock and suitable replacement animals.
• Raised Trough Design: Support legs keep the feed channel above the floor, reducing direct contact with mud, bedding and manure.
• Galvanized Steel Construction: Durable metal construction provides corrosion resistance for indoor cattle housing and outdoor feeding areas.
• Straight Support Legs: Four-leg construction provides a stable free-standing structure with good floor clearance.
• Welded RHS Reinforcement: Two rectangular hollow section braces strengthen the trough and help resist deformation during routine farm use.
• Easy Floor Cleaning: Open space beneath the trough provides improved access for sweeping, scraping or washing.
• Multiple Feeding Positions: The long open trough allows several cattle to access feed simultaneously.
• Indoor or Outdoor Use: Suitable for cattle barns, feed yards, pasture feeding areas and temporary feeding layouts.
• Customizable: Length, width, feeding height, trough depth, steel specification and reinforcement can be adapted according to project requirements.

• Galvanized Feed Trough: Long formed steel feed channel for concentrates, grain, pellets and compatible cattle rations.
• Straight Support Legs: Vertical steel legs raise the feed channel above the floor or ground.
• Leg Footplates: Wide contact plates improve stability and allow site-specific fixing where required.
• RHS Cross Braces: Welded rectangular hollow section members increase longitudinal rigidity.
• Reinforced End Panels: Structural end sections retain feed and connect the trough body to the supporting legs.
• Optional Protective Accessories: Additional feed protection or wildlife-control components can be configured for specific farm environments.

• Install the trough on a firm and reasonably level concrete floor or prepared outdoor feeding surface.
• Confirm that all support legs and footplates are stable before cattle are allowed access.
• Secure the footplates where permanent installation or additional stability is required.
• Maintain adequate clearance around and underneath the feeder for routine cleaning.
• Remove spoiled or contaminated feed regularly to support good feeding hygiene.
• Inspect welds, RHS braces, legs and trough panels periodically for mechanical damage.
• Check galvanized surfaces and repair damaged areas when required.
• For prolonged contact with acidic silage or mineral-rich liquids, use a compatible food-safe or non-toxic protective coating where appropriate.
• Re-tighten bolted or assembled components after initial installation and during routine maintenance.

Q: What is the main advantage of a cattle trough on legs?
A: The raised structure keeps the feed channel above the floor and provides better access underneath the feeder for routine cleaning.

Q: What are the reference dimensions?
A: The reference configuration is approximately 2440 mm long, 786 mm wide, 675 mm high and 230 mm deep.

Q: What type of legs are used?
A: The reference design uses straight steel legs with stable footplates.

Q: Is the trough reinforced?
A: Yes. The reference configuration incorporates two welded RHS reinforcement braces for additional structural strength.

Q: Can the trough dimensions be customized?
A: Yes. Length, width, trough depth, feeding height and structural specifications can be customized according to project requirements.

Q: Can it be used outdoors?
A: Yes. Galvanized construction makes the trough suitable for cattle yards and pasture feeding areas when correctly installed and maintained.

Q: Is an additional feed protection system available?
A: Optional protective accessories can be supplied where wildlife access or other farm-specific feed protection is required.

Q: What information is required for quotation?
A: Please provide cattle type, approximate animal size, herd size, feed type, required trough dimensions, installation environment and preferred surface treatment.
