Bulkhead Wall.090″ smooth sheet welded on to our heavy duty wall posts.

Lining and InsulationWith 4 tiers of protection, Elite Horse Trailers provide the protection from horses kicking and pawing, and help prevent sidewall damage and exterior dings.

Axles and TiresElite uses Dexter Rubber Torsion axles with electric brakes and name brand tires. Our trailers are engineered with accurate weights that provide proper axle and tire size based on the total weight of the trailer and it’s contents, including living quarters.

HingesElite’s proprietary, heavy duty, extruded hinge is used for doors and dividers. This hinge is fitted with a brass fitting that lubricates and allows for a tighter fit with the stainless pin. This hinge is welded to the structure to give us the strongest hinge possible.

Saddle RacksThe Elite built carpeted saddle racks are designed to hold a large variety of today’s saddles.

Wall RubberThe wall rubber on our trailers is corded rubber matting that is able to absorb impacts that would damage lesser made products.
