Stainless Steel Pig Feeding Trough with Mounting Kit

Product Overview

The Stainless Steel Pig Feeding Trough with Mounting Kit is a practical feeding pan supplied complete with the brackets, bolts and fittings needed to fix it firmly in the pen. The trough is made from food-grade stainless steel, with a shallow, rounded pan that is easy for pigs to reach and a smooth surface that is simple to wash. The mounting kit allows the trough to be installed on a wall, on a pen partition or on a support frame, so the farm can place the feed at exactly the right height for the animals and keep the pan clear of the floor, which keeps the feed cleaner and reduces waste. This model is designed for farms that prefer a fixed feeding point, because a mounted trough cannot be knocked over by the animals and takes up less floor space. The unit is built entirely from stainless steel, so it resists corrosion and stays hygienic with daily use. The complete kit means the farm does not need to buy extra parts or make its own fittings, which makes installation quick and simple. With its strong pan and complete mounting set, this trough is a dependable, easy-to-install feeding solution for grower, finisher and sow pens.

Technical Specifications

The trough is manufactured from 304 stainless steel with a body thickness of 1.2 mm. The pan is 800 mm long, 450 mm wide and 200 mm deep, with a capacity of approximately 25 litres of dry feed. The mounting kit includes two stainless brackets, four M10 bolts, washers and a fixing plate, and the brackets fit panels and walls up to 40 mm thick. The trough weighs about 18 kg without the mounting kit, and about 20 kg complete. The mounting holes are pre-drilled to match the brackets, so no additional drilling is required on site. The surface is brushed and passivated, and the pan edges are rounded for the safety of the animals. Optional versions include a longer pan of 1000 mm and a version with a galvanised finish for outdoor use. Every unit is checked for dimensions, weld quality and the fit of the mounting parts before it is packed, and it arrives with the complete kit and an installation diagram.

Manufacturing & Quality

The trough is made in our own factory with a strict quality routine. The stainless sheet is laser cut and formed on a press brake, and the pan is welded with TIG welding to give a strong, leak-proof body. The welds are ground smooth, and the unit is cleaned and passivated. The mounting brackets are pressed from stainless steel and checked for strength and thread accuracy. Each trough is inspected for dimensions, surface finish, weld quality and the fit of the brackets, and a sample from every batch is tested for the strength of the mounting. Because the pan is formed from one piece of metal, there are no joints that can leak or come apart, and the stainless surface stays bright and hygienic for many years. The complete kit is packed with the trough in a reinforced carton, so the customer receives everything needed for installation in one package, without the need to source extra fittings from other suppliers.

Applications

This trough is used in grower and finisher pens, dry sow group housing, boar pens and hospital pens, wherever a fixed feeding point is preferred. Mounting the trough on the wall or partition keeps the feed off the floor, which keeps it cleaner, reduces waste and makes the pen easier to clean. The trough works with dry pelleted feed, meal feed and wet feeding systems, and the shallow pan lets pigs of different sizes eat comfortably. Because the unit is fixed in place, it cannot be knocked over, which is valuable in pens with boars or large groups. The mounting height can be adjusted to suit the size of the animals, and the pan can be raised as the pigs grow. With its complete mounting kit and durable stainless construction, this trough is a simple, reliable feeding solution that requires very little maintenance and gives many years of service.

The trough is designed so that the mounting brackets can be adjusted to different panel thicknesses, and the fixing bolts are made of stainless steel so they do not rust in the wet conditions of a pig house. The installation diagram shows both wall mounting and partition mounting, and the farm can choose the layout that best suits its pens. The trough is exported in a reinforced carton with the complete mounting kit, so the customer does not need to source any extra parts. Spare brackets, bolts and washers are available from our factory, and the smooth stainless surface is easy to keep clean with normal washing. With its fixed installation, the trough stays in place under the activity of the animals, and the shallow pan gives every pig easy access to the feed, making it a dependable part of the daily feeding routine for many years.
