This heavy duty, completely reversible crowding system features a 135 degree sweep with a 30’ main working alley. This system also includes a side alley that can be used for sorting or as a lead up to a Calf Table. Whether you plan to use this as part of a permanent installation or as a portable working corral, the RSOS-12 helps reduce the labor needed for working cattle. This system features an adjustable alley, two Rough Stock Open Preg Panels, blocking gates, and an 8’ sorting gate as part of the sweep. We also include an Adjustable Alley Frame with Chute Attachment to go at the end of the alley to make it quick and easy to attach a Priefert Squeeze Chute to your main working alley. The adjustable alley frames can be set to one of four widths to better fit the size of cattle being worked. One of the Preg Panels can be used to provide secure access for palpation or AI work, while the other serves as the gate into the side alley. The Adjustable Alley Gates not only lend support to the alley structure, but also serve as heavy duty roll gates for blocking cattle. The 8’ sorting gate gives you the option to sort or load out cattle straight from the sweep, without crowding them down the alley. This system is constructed from our heaviest, most durable panels, Priefert Rough Stock Panels, to ensure that it can handle even the rankest cattle. The Architectural Grade Powder Coat Finish helps the product to resist rust, scratches, and fading to add years of life to your investment.
- The RSOS-12 is great for permanent corrals, but versatile enough for portable applications if desired.
- By pivoting our 10’ wide sweeping bow gate at the inside corner of the alley entrance, livestock flow is improved by eliminating corners that are found in other sweep systems.
- Our Rough Stock Open Curve Panels are specially designed to create our sweep tub and each includes three vertical blocking points that allow the sweep gate to latch. These stops help prevent cattle from pushing the sweep gate back when being crowded.
- This system is constructed from Priefert Rough Stock Panels, our heaviest, most durable panel. As the panel of choice for the NFR and the PBR, these panels are designed to handle the rankest cattle.
- Priefert’s unique Adjustable Alley Frames allow operators to quickly and easily adjust the width of the working alley to better fit the size of cattle being work. The alley can be set to 18”, 21”, 25”, or 28” wide.
- Radius Bars work at ground level to maintain the constant and correct radius for the sweep and the Radius Bow provides support from overhead.
- The RSOS-12 also includes a side alley that can be used for sorting alley or as lead up to calf table. This alley includes 4’ and 8’ access gates on either side of the alley where it attaches to the main working alley.
- Architectural Grade Powder Coat Finish with UV inhibitors add years of life to your investment by helping the product resist rust, scratches and fading.
- 135 degree sweep is easily reversible so that cattle can be loaded from either side of the working alley, and can be expanded into a complete corral system with the purchase of additional pieces.
- The Rough Stock Open Bow Gate includes the sweeping gate, an alley frame that serves as the initial opening into the crowding alley, and a spring loaded Double Piston Lever Latch.

- The 30’ long main working alley can easily be lengthened by purchasing additional panels and alley frames.
- The Adjustable Alley Gates are designed to work with our Adjustable Alley Frames and serve as heavy duty roll gates for blocking cattle.
- The Rough Stock Open Preg Panel situated at the end of the working alley makes it easy for you to palpate or AI cattle. The second Preg Panel is used in the middle of the alley and serves as the entry gate into the side/sorting alley.
