2023 Wilson Trailer Roper Equestrian
"You'll Be Glad You Brought A Wilson Along For The Ride."
Ride safe and secure. Ride smooth and quiet. You will appreciate the attention paid towards the safe transportation of your horses and the convenience features Wilson Trailer has designed into this upgraded version of the Roper trailer.
Take a look at the many Advantages like the double walled and riveted construction which Wilson Trailer brings to the horse trailer market and then see the many Options available to customize this equestrian trailer just for you.
Features may include:
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.
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.
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.
NOSE FRAME AND COUPLER AREA- 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.
INTERIOR WALLS- Without vertical posts, the interior walls of the Wilson slat style trailer are some of the industry’s smoothest. Wilson Trailer also takes great care to eliminate sharp edges on their gate connections to help curtail animal bruising. With double walled construction dents, caused by animals on the inside, do not show up on the outside.
FLOORS- 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.
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.
ROOF- Roof skin stretched to maximum efficiency makes it uncommonly tough for extra life.
GATES- Livestock loaded into a stock trailer puts pressure on all connection points within the trailer and those connection points need to be strong especially when the trailer is moving and stopping. Wilson uses full-height, beefy hinges connected to the floor and ceiling of the trailer which actually become part of the trailer’s structure. Wilson’s full-frames gates have solid latches so you will feel confident about the containment of your livestock time after time.
