Paxton Agricultural AT8 Round Drinking Trough – 675 Litres
The Paxton Agricultural AT8 is a large-capacity, free-standing round drinking trough with a 675-litre capacity, designed specifically for large herds of dairy cows and beef cattle in open field environments. Supplied without a filling mechanism, the AT8 is ideal for locations where a constant piped water supply is unavailable, making it a flexible watering solution for remote paddocks, outlying fields, and extensive grazing systems. Manufactured from UV-stabilised MDPE, it is frost resistant to -40°C and built for reliable long-term outdoor use in all weather conditions.

Applications and Usage
The Paxton AT8 is well suited to extensive grazing systems and remote field locations where connecting to a mains water supply is impractical or cost-prohibitive. Filled by tanker or bowser, the 675-litre capacity provides a substantial reserve that can sustain a moderate-sized cattle group for a full day or more depending on stocking density and ambient temperature, reducing the frequency of manual refilling. The circular form allows cattle to drink simultaneously from all sides, which reduces competition within large groups and supports more even daily water intake across the herd. Smooth internal and external surfaces simplify routine cleaning and reduce the risk of injury to animals pressing against the trough. The low drinking height of 610mm encourages cattle to adopt a natural drinking posture, which is beneficial for water intake efficiency and animal welfare. Frost resistance to -40°C ensures dependable performance through the UK winter without risk of structural damage from ice formation.
