Ranch Hand Slat Style

Ranch Hand Slat Style Trailer

The added strength of Wilson’s unique double-walled slat style allows you to haul with confidence. The interlocking extrusions, bonded together to create the trailer’s side walls, do not require interior vertical posts welded on to support them. The result is amazingly stable side wall with a very smooth interior that is much more bio secure and easier to wash out. The Ranch Hand slat style has all the right standard features and a limited but useful list of available options.

Feel the satisfaction knowing you have the most durable, smoothest pulling livestock trailer on the road with Wilson.

STANDARD FEATURES

1
Nose Frame and CouplerWilson Trailer provides more strength in the nose area with full-length steel supports. A fully boxed steel frame plus the extra plating and fastening in the transition areas clearly illustrates Wilson’s strength in the trailer nose. Also note the number of crossbars that provide more nose floor strength.
2
FloorWilson uses the hardest alloy for the best wearing and the floor incorporates the highest diamond tread height for the surest footing. Also note, the floor of the trailer is fastened and not welded to the floor crossbars. This allows the floor to flex without the worry of a compromised floor from broken welds. The floor of a livestock trailer directly affects the trailer’s resale value – An important element to consider when purchasing a new trailer. Wilson offers the best floors in the business and their trailers fetch the best prices at trade-in time.
3
Aluminum Sub FrameWith the Ranch Hand’s aluminum sub frame, not only are the weight savings big, there are no steel components, other than the axles, to lose paint, cause rust or electrolysis…The enemy of aluminum trailers.
4
Slat Style ConstructionThe double-walled Slat Style walls are constructed using aluminum extruded tubes, which are bonded together to form a very strong and durable wall. By forming the wall in this manner, Wilson has created a very smooth interior wall without any vertical posts plus there are no areas to collect animal waste and become a biosecurity problem.
5
RoofRoof skin stretched to maximum efficiency makes it uncommonly tough for extra life.
6
Skid PlateThe rear of a stock trailer can drag when pulled across uneven surfaces. This scraping action can roll dirt and gravel up into the sub frame and potentially pull the rear of the trailer out. To guard against this, Wilson puts in a full width skid plate across the rear of their sub frames.
7
Slam Catch™Wilson’s spring-loaded catch will firmly grab ahold of the door when you swing it closed behind your load. You will then have more time to safely engage the lock rod and secure the door all the way shut. Feel more confident and more protected with the patented Slam Catch.
