Transcript of New 2015 Featherlite Livestock Trailers
They can outlast a half-dozen pickups — and no telling how many steel trailers.
Featherlites are priced right and have the best resale available. From bumper pulls
to double-deck semi-trailers, Featherlite builds a stock trailer for any operation.
Note: The specs listed in this brochure for each model are considered ‘base’ specs. Many more choices beyond those listed are available. See your Featherlite dealer.
01
All-aluminum Featherlite stock trailers. Superior value. Super tough. A lighter,
smoother tow that can save fuel.
Aluminum Uni-Body Construction. Featherlite livestock trailers are constructed with high quality, extruded 6061-t6 alloy-tempered aluminum, giving livestock haulers the best of both worlds – unmatched reliability with the classic Featherlite look. All components of the trailer from side posts to roof rails to roof bows to cross members are engineered into a uni-body design. The Featherlite uni-body design gives you a stronger, more durable trailer. With proper maintenance, your Featherlite trailer will give you years of reliable livestock hauling.
Arched Aluminum Roof. Compared to many flat roofs, Featherlite’s arched aluminum roof is stronger, functions to allow rain or snow to run off efficiently and is aesthetically favored by trailer owners. Featherlite’s roof fabrication is unique to trailer manufacturing, utilizing the superior pierce and roll system (used by airplane manufacturers) in the construction of each trailer roof.
Tough, durable self-piercing steel rivets are driven into the aluminum, but no hole completely pierces into the roof. Instead a secure crown forms up and around the bottom of the rivet, reducing the opportunity for water leakage.
Wiring Harness. Many manufacturers wire their trailers with individual wires but at Featherlite, all wires are bundled in a protective jacket, known as the Featherlite wiring harness. The Featherlite wiring harness provides a water-tight seal, protects against wire wear and tear and makes connecting wires easier.
‘Wave’ Side Panels. Sleek, undulating ‘Wave’ side panels are standard on Featherlite stock trailers.
Heavy-Duty Crossmembers. Featherlite stock trailers have a solid support system underneath for the heaviest loads. 4" crossmembers run every 12" under the trailer on most models.
Drop Gate. Brawny new drop gate features convenient, one-handed tailgate hatch. It lays flat against the drop wall and the open beam makes it easy to clean.
Rubber Torsion Axles. Featherlite’s rubber torsion axles provide an unbelievably easy pull and smooth ride. Featherlites are equipped with E-Z Lube axles and forward adjusting brakes as standard features on models with axles of 2.2K through 8K. The E-Z Lube axles make bearing lubrication quick and easy with an E-Z Lube cap that allows for easy access, extra protection and virtually no mess. Forward adjusting brakes adjust to proper clearances during travel allowing you to stop with confidence. It also eliminates the need for manual brake adjustments, saving you time and money.
FARMeRS: The facts are clear!
Step-Safe Gates. Optional patent-pending “Step Safe” rear and center gates make loading and unloading dramatically easier, especially for those livestock unaccustomed to loading. Livestock don't have to step over the gate track, instead it slides with the door.
PerfectFit™ System. Easily customize your livestock trailer around your life and your livestock with the Featherlite PerfectFit System.
Quiet-Ride Heavy Duty Flooring. New optional flooring serves as a cushioning surface for livestock, giving them firmer footing and minimizing the risk of injury and stress on joints. It’s quieter and more inviting for livestock when entering the trailer. What's more the value and life of the trailer will increase due to its durability and 20-year warranty from the vendor.

I love my Featherlite! It is bigger than my previous trailer but much lighter and easier for me to hitch, load and haul to my cattle shows by myself. Before Featherlite my fuel mileage dropped greatly when I hauled even a few head of cattle. Now it is about the same whether hauling or not. This trailer has been a tremendous time and money saver for me. MODEL8127OWnER
