Arrowquip - Model Q-Catch 87 Series - Portable Cattle Chute, Alley and Tub

The NEW Q-Catch 87 Series portable cattle chute, alley and tub features Arrowquip's signature cattle handling components in a compact and convenient portable unit. Available in multiple options, the new lineup of Q-Catch 87 Series portable cattle handling equipment provides ranchers with the flexibility to get the job done, no matter where it needs to happen.

Taking portable cattle handling to the next level, Arrowquip has introduced a new option, their very first FULL portable system. This new model features an 18' alleyway to improve the way cattle flow through the system. Combining these two cradle-shaped Easy Flow Alley sections with the low-sheeted tub and Q-Catch 87 Series cattle chute that feature our patent-pending 3E components will ensure cattle will flow through your system with ease.

• 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 NEW fully Hydraulic 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!

• 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.
