2023 Wilson Trailer Silverstar 408 Cattle/Hog

When hauling livestock, you want a reliable trailer offering you the strongest gates, the best floors in the business, and the best in guarding against animal bruising. You also want a trailer offering the best in bio security and it is the easiest to clean out. This trailer also needs to deliver the lowest cost of operation and the industry’s best resale value.

The Wilson Silverstar checks all of those boxes. It’s no wonder it out sells all the others combined and the Silverstar is consistently the most sought after, highest valued trailer in the used trailer market.

Features may include:

• Wilson uses the industry’s thickest side skin to produce their trailers. Larger, double embossed, oval slots provide superior airflow with punch patterns designed to minimize leakage. Your livestock arrives with less bruising and less stress with Wilson’s super smooth interior walls.

• Wilson’s heat-treated flooring is 6061T6 hardness aluminum, the hardest aluminum available for the best wearing and with the highest diamond tread height for the best traction. It is fastened, not welded, to 3” u-shaped crossbars, which means it is not subject to broken welds and the associated floor weaknesses.

• The design of Wilson’s exclusive u-shaped crossbars, used in both the stat deck and the belly, offers superior biosecurity, plus greater floor strength is attained since the floor is fastened to both sides of the crossbar. U-shaped crossbars are stiffer than z-crossbars and offer better resistance to twisting and less damage due to belly dragging.

• The exclusive and standard Wilson Z2 extruded long member virtually eliminates corrosion, metal fatigue and loose fasteners in certain areas of the sub frame and deepbar.

• A one-piece .045” aluminum roof skin is standard. Light-emitting ArmorTuf® roof material is available as an option.

• Wilson uses a true extrusion for their rear corner posts, which adds more strength for an area of the trailer receiving daily jolts when backing up to unloading chutes.

• Wilson manufactures their heavy-duty gates with full-framed construction and hinge grease zerks to reduce wear, operate more smoothly and last longer. The full-height hinges reduce sag, lessen movement in sidewalls and provide for stiffer connections.

• All Wilson gates have gate pin storage to help you with getting the gates shut and secured quickly – No fumbling for pins when slamming gates shut.

• The smooth wrap-around front and sweeping nose cap, rounded on three planes, has been wind tunnel tested and proven to be more aerodynamic. The spun corner caps are more resistant to denting and the front skin is thicker, which adds strength to the trailer.

• Wilson uses .125” treadplate flooring in the rear – The industry’s thickest flooring for an area of the trailer receiving the harshest treatment and the most traffic.

• The fold-to-corner bull bars feature vertical tubes on the rear section. This makes the bull bar stiffer with no sagging. Tube construction also provides better ventilation on the punch pan rear ends and full-length hinges gives it superior strength and durability. Bull bar is shown with Punched To Match side option.
