High friction rubber flooring can keep your livestock standing and also extend the life of your trailer, says Shelby Trailer Service, a small family owned and operated trailer flooring manufacturing company located in Comanche, Okla. All their products are made entirely from recycled tire rubber and plastic.
“Our rubber flooring is designed to replace the existing wood flooring on trailers. We sell to trailer manufacturers, trailer dealers, ranchers and farmers. The end users can easily install the flooring themselves,” says general manager J’Lynn Olah. “The rubber flooring cushions the ride and provides the animals with stable footing. It’s a great alternative to wood because it won’t crack or rot and provides good traction.”
Their original Cross Lug board is designed to keep livestock standing while on the move. Introduced in the late 1990’s, it has been improved by providing spacing between the cross lugs for easier cleanout.
The company recently introduced a smooth, 1 1/2-in. thick Tongue and Groove board made with “traction surface” and a 1 3/4-in. thick plank board. Both boards are designed for horse trailers, equipment trailers, flatbeds or truck beds.
Shelby rubber lumber comes with a 20-year warranty.
