Tri-Bar piglet slat

The V-shaped slat for perfect hygiene

Tri-Bar USA

The V-shaped bars of the Nooyen steel Tri-Bar slatted floors ensure a perfect drain of manure and, consequently, excellent hygiene. This gives the flooring system an ammonia reducing effect.

Because of their flat tops, Tri-Bar slats have an optimal standing surface and offer outstanding lying comfort.

Tri-Bar is available as a self-supporting construction and is easy to install in a standard position or in a combined position (parallel to the passage) with a steel support. In the standard position, self-supporting spans are possible up to 12-foot length. Tri-Bar is available in various standard lengths. Tri-Bar slat systems can be combined perfectly with a solid concrete area.

The steel Tri-Bar slatted floor for gestation sows is available with 3/8" bar widths in combination with 3/8" wide slots. The optimal standard seating is 1".

The Tri-Bar slatted floors can be equipped, for instance, with a heating system: the Hotpipe slatted floor or de heated convex panel slats.

Additional option:

  • All our floors can be raised to the desired height with our loop system. A nut can be welded to the loop to secure the floor to the concrete. Loops are used to install the slats on the edges of the pit. By using the center-to-center dimension of the pens, these loops fall precisely under the side fences, creating no obstacle for the sows.
     
  • Non-supported: a non-supported floor is a perfect floor to replace woven wire or when it can be installed in an existing working frame.
