Square Front Stockman Drawbar

Square Front Stockman Float – Built for Working Life

When you’re moving livestock, you need a float that works as hard as you do. The Square Front Stockman is our answer to farmers who asked for more storage, better accessibility, and the same rock-solid reliability Kara Kar has delivered for over 60 years.

Why the Square Front Design?

The square front isn’t just about looks – it’s about practicality. You get:

  • Massive storage capacity in the front compartment for feed, tools, veterinary supplies, and everything else you need on the road
  • Easy access from both sides, so you’re not climbing over anything to grab what you need
  • Protected storage that keeps your gear dry and secure, no matter the weather
  • Better weight distribution for improved towing stability on long hauls or rough tracks

Built for Australian Conditions

Based on our proven 16ft Stockman design, this float handles everything from cattle to sheep, working horses to alpacas. The square front addition gives you the storage farmers have been asking for without compromising the durability and functionality you expect from Kara Kar.

Key Features:

  • 3.75m internal length – perfect for versatile livestock transport
  • Heavy-duty Australian steel construction
  • Superior ventilation for animal welfare
  • Robust flooring designed for heavy, repeated use
  • Swing & Slide tailgate for easy loading and unloading
  • Practical, no-nonsense design that gets the job done

Australian Made. Farmer Tested.

Every Square Front Stockman is built right here in our Australian factory using local steel and materials. We’re not just building to a price point – we’re building floats that need to work day in, day out, in real Australian conditions.

Whether you’re heading to the saleyards, moving stock between properties, or transporting animals for veterinary care, this float handles it all with the reliability Kara Kar is known for.

Practical Storage That Actually Works

The square front storage compartment isn’t an afterthought – it’s designed by people who understand what farmers need:

  • Room for hay bales and feed bags
  • Secure storage for veterinary kits and medications
  • Space for ropes, halters, and handling equipment
  • Protected area for tools and maintenance supplies
  • Accessible from both sides without disturbing livestock
