Overview
STK-16 – 16′ Stock Trailer
The Bar-M STK-16 is a dependable and versatile stock trailer built for livestock owners who need a durable, easy-to-use trailer for everyday hauling. With a spacious 16-foot stock area and rugged all-aluminum construction, the STK-16 is designed to handle everything from farm chores and sale days to livestock shows and weekend events.
Built on a strong aluminum frame with extruded aluminum sidewalls, the STK-16 provides exceptional durability while remaining lightweight and easy to tow. High and low air gaps along the sidewalls create excellent ventilation, helping keep livestock comfortable in a variety of weather conditions.
One of the STK-16’s most popular features is its center swing gate, allowing livestock to be separated into multiple compartments for improved organization, safer transport, and greater flexibility when hauling different groups of animals. Combined with the rear swing gate with built-in slider and curb-side access door, the STK-16 is designed to make loading, unloading, and managing livestock simple and efficient.
The open stock configuration makes the trailer ideal for hauling cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and other livestock while providing the versatility needed for a variety of farm and ranch applications.
