400 Gallon Portable Metal Livestock Water Trough with Removable Hitch

The 400 Gallon Portable Metal Livestock Water Trough with removable hitch version, is a field-proven solution for ranchers, designed for use on Crown land range sites during spring, summer, and fall grazing. With its removable hitch and wheeled design, this trough offers portability and convenience for livestock watering without the need for additional post and rail stabilization.   This mobile water trough holds approximately 300 US gallons (with a 2-inch freeboard) and can water up to 6 cows simultaneously, making it an efficient solution for grazing operations in remote or seasonal areas. The portable design allows for easy relocation to different grazing sites.   Constructed from 3/16 inch welded mild steel plate, the trough features flat ends and sloped sides for strength and effective drainage. Measuring approximately 8 feet long, 2 feet high, and 4 feet wide at the top (tapering to 3 feet at the base), it is both spacious and practical for livestock use. The trough includes a removable hitch and durable wheels for easy transportation across your property, ensuring flexibility and convenience. The inlet and outlet piping are installed underneath to protect them from livestock and vandalism, while the overflow drain is welded onto the outflow end plate to prevent spillage. To ensure wildlife safety, the trough includes a "critter escape" on two of the four inside corners, allowing small mammals to escape if they fall into the water. The trough is also equipped with a plumbing/float cover and float for a 1” pipe to help maintain optimal water levels.   FEATURES   Made from 3/16 inch welded mild steel plate for strength and durability Approximately 300 US gallon capacity with a 2-inch freeboard Watering capacity: up to 6 cows at once Dimensions: 8 feet long, 2 feet high, 4 feet wide at top (tapers to 3 feet) Removable hitch and wheels for easy portability No exposed piping—inlet and outlet enter from underneath to prevent damage Overflow drain welded to the outflow end plate for efficient drainage Iron braces welded at the top for added stability Wildlife safety: "Critter escape" included on two inside corners Equipped with plumbing/float cover and float for 1” pipe Simple to install, winterize, and maintain Ideal for Crown land range sites and seasonal grazing   SPECIFICATIONS   Specification Details Model 400 Gallon Portable Metal Livestock Water Trough Capacity 300 US Gallons (1135 L) Construction Welded 3/16 inch mild steel plate Dimensions 8 feet long, 2 feet high, 4 feet wide at top (tapers to 3 feet) Watering Capacity Water up to 6 cows at once Piping Inlet and outlet enter from underneath to prevent damage Wildlife Safety Critter escape on two inside corners Maintenance Simple to install, winterize, and maintain Weight Approximately 700 lbs
