Stainless Steel Pig Drinking Bowl

Product Overview

The Stainless Steel Pig Drinking Bowl is a wall-mounted watering bowl that gives pigs a clean, reliable supply of drinking water. The bowl is made from food-grade stainless steel, with a round pan and a central valve that releases water when the pig presses it with the snout. This demand-controlled design means that water flows only while the animal is drinking, which saves water and keeps the area around the bowl dry. The bowl is supplied with a mounting plate and bolts, so it can be fixed to a wall or to a pen partition at the correct height for the animals. The stainless body is strong, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, and the smooth surface does not hold dirt or bacteria. The valve is simple and robust, with very few moving parts, so it works reliably with little maintenance. The bowl is suitable for grower and finisher pigs, sows and boars, and it can be connected to the farm water line with a standard fitting. With its clean design and dependable operation, this drinking bowl is a practical and hygienic watering solution for the pig house.

Technical Specifications

The bowl is manufactured from 304 stainless steel with a wall thickness of 1.2 mm. The pan has a diameter of 160 mm and a depth of 70 mm, and the central valve is a spring-loaded type that operates at a water pressure of 0.02 to 0.4 MPa. The water flow is approximately 2 litres per minute, and the valve closes automatically when the pig stops pressing. The bowl has a 1/2 inch female inlet, and the mounting plate fits panels and walls up to 40 mm thick, with four M8 bolts supplied. The complete unit weighs about 2.5 kg. The surface is brushed and passivated, and the pan edges are rounded for safety. Optional models include a larger bowl of 200 mm diameter for sows and boars and a version with a raised valve for young pigs. Every bowl is pressure tested and checked for the valve action before packing, and it arrives complete with the mounting kit and an installation diagram.

Manufacturing & Quality

The drinking bowl is produced in our factory with careful attention to the valve, which is the heart of the unit. The pan is deep drawn from a laser-cut stainless blank in one piece, which gives a strong, seamless body that will not leak. The valve is assembled from precision parts and tested individually for opening, closing and sealing, so that every bowl reacts correctly when the pig drinks. Each unit is pressure tested at the connections and inspected for dimensions, surface finish and the operation of the valve before packing. A sample from each batch is tested for the durability of the valve over repeated use. Because the pan is formed from one piece of metal, there are no joints where bacteria could collect, and the smooth surface is very easy to keep clean. The bowl is exported in a compact carton with the mounting kit, ready to install, and it gives dependable service for many years.

Applications

The drinking bowl is used in grower and finisher pens, dry sow group housing, boar pens and hospital pens, where pigs need a reliable water supply. The bowl is mounted on a wall or on a pen partition at the correct height, and the valve releases water only while the pig drinks, which saves water and keeps the floor dry. The bowl works with gravity tanks and pressurised water systems, and it connects to the water line with a standard 1/2 inch fitting. Because the valve is at the centre of the pan, the pig drinks from a clean surface, and the water is replaced after every drink. The bowl is easy to wash during the daily round, and the stainless body stays bright and hygienic for many years. With its simple, dependable design, this drinking bowl is a sound choice for farms that want clean water and low maintenance in every pen.

For long-term service, the drinking bowl is designed so that the valve can be serviced without removing the bowl from the wall, and spare valves and bolts are available from our factory. The bowl is exported in a compact carton with the mounting kit and an installation diagram, and it can be shipped by sea or by road without damage. Regular cleaning of the pan and the valve keeps the water point at its best, and the stainless surface stays bright for many years with normal care. The bowl is backed by complete technical support, including advice on water pressure and installation height for different pig stages. With its simple valve and strong stainless body, the drinking bowl gives dependable, hygienic service in every pen, and it is a product that farms order again and again for new buildings.
