Description

The 9150166 is the six drink hog bar, with a trough on each side and three drink spaces per side, so pens on both sides of a fence water off one unit and one water line.

The body is 100 percent 304 stainless steel in a heavy 14 gauge, with heavier 12 gauge drink lids. There is no paint to chip and no galvanizing to wear through, so nothing at the water line gives out. Thick styrofoam insulation rated at a 2.7 R factor runs through the body, and electric heat with a self regulating thermostat comes standard from the factory, so the element is only topping up the heat the insulation already holds.

The drink lids are what keep a Smidley from going black. Feed and bedding stay out, the pigs push the lid open to drink, and the water underneath stays clean. The top cover lifts off by gravity when it is time to wash it out, so that job is a bucket and a few minutes rather than a job with a wrench.

Six drink spaces, 32 inches wide by 10 3/4 inches high by 36 7/8 inches long, 150 pounds. Built by Smidley in Britt, Iowa.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many hogs will the 9150166S water?

Smidley allows a maximum of 25 head per drink space, so 6 drink spaces handle up to 150 head. Count the drink holes rather than the pen, because that is what sets the number.

Does it come heated, or is heat an add on?

It comes heated. Electric heat and a self regulating thermostat are standard from the factory. The thermostat is the part that keeps the bill down, because the element only draws when the water actually needs it rather than running all winter.

Will it rust out at the water line?

It is 100 percent 304 stainless steel, a heavy 14 gauge body with heavier 12 gauge drink lids. There is no paint to chip and no galvanizing to wear through, which is what usually fails first on a steel waterer, right at the water line.

Why does a Smidley not go black?

The drink lids. Feed and bedding stay out of the trough because the lid only opens when a pig pushes it, so the water underneath stays clear. Thick styrofoam insulation rated at a 2.7 R factor keeps the temperature steady, which helps too.

How does it ship?

This one ships freight at 150 lb. You can also pick it up in Britt, Iowa if you would rather collect it yourself.
