2025 Wilson Trailer Roper Slat Style
If you prefer a slat style combo stock trailer, then you definitely need to compare the Wilson Roper slat style versus the rest. Wilson’s unique double-wall construction consists of interlocking aluminum extrusions which are bonded together to form a very smooth interior wall without the need for welded on vertical posts like single wall designs do. Wilson’s double-wall design is incredibly strong for longer lasting durability and safer transport of your livestock. This trailer comes standard with all the right features and you can set this Roper up just the way you need it with the long list of available options.
Features may include:
NOSE FRAME AND COUPLER- Wilson Trailer provides more strength in the nose area with full-length steel supports. A fully boxed steel frame plus the extra plating and fastening in the transition areas clearly illustrates Wilson’s strength in the trailer nose. Also note the number of crossbars that provide more nose floor strength.
TACK ROOM- The versatile tack room is available with either a straight or slanted wall. Access into the nose area from the tack room creates even more convenient storage space. A lockable, sealed tack room door keeps all your gear secure and out of the elements. Both the tack room door and the additional door can be located on the trailer’s driver or curb sides.
FLOOR- Wilson uses the hardest alloy for the best wearing and the floor incorporates the highest diamond tread height for the surest footing. Also note, the floor of the trailer is fastened and not welded to the floor crossbars. This allows the floor to flex without the worry of a compromised floor from broken welds. The floor of a livestock trailer directly affects the trailer’s resale value – An important element to consider when purchasing a new trailer. Wilson offers the best floors in the business and their trailers fetch the best prices at trade-in time.
ALUMINUM SUB FRAME- With the Roper’s aluminum sub frame, not only are the weight savings big, there are no steel components, other than the axles, to lose paint, cause rust or electrolysis…The enemy of aluminum trailers.
SLAT STYLE CONSTRUCTION- The double-walled Slat Style walls are constructed using aluminum extruded tubes, which are bonded together to form a very strong and durable wall. By forming the wall in this manner, Wilson has created a very smooth interior wall without any vertical posts plus there are no areas to collect animal waste and become a biosecurity problem.
ROOF- Roof skin stretched to maximum efficiency makes it uncommonly tough for extra life.
SKID PLATE- The rear of a stock trailer can drag when pulled across uneven surfaces. This scraping action can roll dirt and gravel up into the sub frame, damage crossbars and potentially pull the rear of the trailer out. To guard against this, Wilson puts in a full-width skid plate across the rear of their sub frames.
SLAM CATCH- Wilson’s spring-loaded catch will firmly grab ahold of the door when you swing it closed behind your load. You will then have more time to safely engage the lock rod and secure the door all the way shut. Feel more confident and more protected with the patented Slam Catch.
