Galvanized panel specification

• Designed for the confinement of small livestock, such as sheep, hogs, and goats.

These versatile panels allow for quick and easy setup. With vertical bars that are set on 4” centers, these panels discourage livestock from rearing up and finding a foothold, the way they often do with horizontal-rail panels, and connect using sturdy pin connections. Each panel features a durable galvanized tubing that helps product to resist rust and corrosion. This 4” spacing is also narrower than most other vertical bar panels and prevents animals from being able to push their heads through the rails.

• Durable galvanized tubing helps the product to resist rust and corrosion. A clear powder coat finish as a second layer of protection against rust.

• height: 49”

• Vertical rails constructed from 1.05” OD 18 gauge tubing

• Vertical Bar Spacing: 4” centers

Galvanized Gate Specification

• Designed for the confinement of small livestock, such as sheep, hogs, and goats.

These versatile gates allow for quick and easy setup. With vertical bars that are set on 4” centers, these gates discourage livestock from rearing up and finding a foothold, the way they often do with horizontal-rails, and connect using sturdy pin connections. Each gate features a durable galvanized tubing that helps product to resist rust and corrosion. Each bow frame offers 80” of clearance to allow for easy “walk thru” access to pens. These gates use a sliding gravity latch that can accept a lock or snap for added security.

• Durable galvanized tubing helps the product to resist rust and corrosion. A clear powder coat finish as a second layer of protection against rust.

• height: 49” vertical rail height, 80” frame clearance height

• Vertical rails constructed from 1.05” OD 18 gauge tubing
