Product Information
Full details
The Stubbs Tyre Bowl is a highly practical feeding solution designed for stable and paddock use, perfect for horse owners and livestock keepers who need a sturdy, stable container that resists tipping. By fitting securely into a standard 14-inch tyre, the bowl stays firmly in place even when animals nudge it, preventing spilled feed. A key caveat to remember is that the tyre itself is not included with the product, requiring you to source a compatible 14-inch tyre separately.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does this product come with the tyre?
No, the tyre is not supplied. You will need to source a standard 14-inch tyre separately.
Can I use this for water as well as feed?
Yes, the material is suitable for water, but ensure you clean it regularly to prevent algae growth.
What is the total capacity of the bowl?
The bowl has a capacity of 18 litres.
Is the bowl resistant to UV light?
The product is designed for outdoor use and is robust, but like all plastics, it may show wear if left in direct, intense sunlight for many years.
Can I use a 13-inch or 15-inch tyre?
The bowl is designed for a 14-inch tyre. A smaller tyre will not fit, and a larger tyre will result in an insecure, loose fit.
How much does the bowl weigh?
The bowl weighs approximately 1.59kg.
Troubleshooting
The bowl feels loose inside the tyre.
Ensure the tyre is a standard 14-inch model; if the tyre wall is damaged or deformed, the bowl may not sit level.
The bowl is difficult to clean.
Use a pressure washer or stiff scrubbing brush with warm soapy water, ensuring all corners are rinsed to remove trapped feed residue.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: obtain a standard 14-inch tyre, ensure it is clean and free of sharp wires, and simply drop the Stubbs Tyre Bowl into the center aperture.
- Compatibility: Ensure the tyre is precisely 14 inches to allow for a snug fit.
- Cleaning: Periodic cleaning with a mild disinfectant and water is recommended to prevent mold or feed buildup.
- Care: Avoid leaving the product in extreme, prolonged freezing conditions if it is brittle, as the impact from animal hooves could cause damage. Periodically check the tyre base for debris that might cause the bowl to sit unevenly.
