Bear Iron Works Heavy-Duty Steel Feed Tub for Livestock - 5 FT & 10 FT

The Bear Iron Works Heavy-Duty Feed Tub is a rugged steel containment solution designed primarily for livestock feeding, ranch operations, farms, and feedlots. Built from ASTM A36 steel, it provides a durable alternative to plastic or makeshift feeders that can crack, flex, or deteriorate under repeated outdoor use.

The tub keeps hay, grain, seed, and other feed elevated and contained rather than directly on the ground. Its angled-wall design improves access to the contents while helping limit waste, and the tub is intentionally not watertight, allowing rainwater and snowmelt to drain rather than collect inside.

Bear Iron Works also incorporates a reinforced divider into the larger feed tub design, adding structural rigidity while creating separate feeding zones. Angled legs/skids make the tub compatible with suitable forklift handling, allowing it to be repositioned as feeding locations or site requirements change.

Although designed primarily for livestock applications, the heavy-duty steel construction also makes the tub useful as a parts bin, tool container, industrial storage bin, or general-purpose material container in construction yards and shops.

Which model should you choose?

5 FT Feed Tub: Choose the smaller model when space is limited, feeding demand is lower, or a more compact storage or containment solution is preferred.

10 FT Feed Tub: Choose the 10-foot model for larger livestock operations, higher feed capacity, or applications where a long-format industrial or material-storage container is useful.
