  • Engineered For Transport

    Towing is one of the biggest differences in the new portable cattle handling system. The entire unit folds up into a compact and secure package for travel, ensuring your equipment will get to your destination safely. The enhanced frame features 2” x 6” beams on the top, and 3” x 3” beams on the bottom for structural integrity, and setup when you get to your location only takes a matter of minutes with our electric jack system.

  • Even More Compact Collapsible Tub

    The collapsible tub on all Arrowquip portable cattle handling units has been completely redesigned to be truly compact. The tub is folded in a way that shortens the unit by up to 5’ 8” when towing. This brilliant engineering has made the NEW 18’ alley portable unit the same length as the previous Q-Catch 86 Series Portable Cattle Chute, 8’ Alley & Tub model was!

3E BudFlow® vs Crowding

The new 3E BudFlow® system allows cattle to see more light, which enhances flow through your handling system. The 3E BudFlow tub is designed to work with natural cattle behaviour by providing them with extra space to prevent stops and encourage cattle to move into the alley seamlessly.

The 180° Crowding Tub provides effective cattle movement from the tub into the alley. The sweep gate features a lock out to keep it from moving back towards the handler when crowding cattle into the alley.

  • NEW 18' Easy Flow Alley

    The NEW 18’ Alley section turns your portable cattle chute, alley and tub into a fully portable handling system. By providing enough space for you to move all cattle out of the tub and into the alley, it provides the capacity you need to move your cattle though the system without having to stop and start the flow of cattle repeatedly.

    The Easy Flow Cattle Alley sections are equipped with our patent-pending 3E technology which helps to draw cattle in the right direction using light. Two removable panels on each alley section can be moved into multiple positions to control what cattle see, giving you enhanced control of cattle movement.

    Also available in an 8’ alley model.
