Blackstar Metal Fabricating, building weight pulling carts and rail systems with the safety of the dog and handler in mind.

 

 

Our rail system are built with heavy materials to support the high weights achieved in this sport. No bolts or adjusters protrude from the side of the track at any point. Nothing to cut or injure a dog that might step off the track. Secure stops at both ends prevent the cart from running off the rails, with a backbreak system that stops the cart from rolling back but provides no resistance to the pull. The rail cart has the casters backset from the front , back and sides, which almost eliminates the chance of a dog ever getting a foot under a caster. With the casters set in the weigh platform can be made bigger to provide greater stability and a lower weight stack. The weight platform will hold 20 8"X16" blocks. This gives an 800lb layer with 4" solid blocks. 5000lb stacks less than 30" high from the platform. All systems are built to comply with the rule standards of most pulling associations, or can be modified for any in particular.

Rail system complete ready to pull $2100.00

 

 

 

 

 Our pulling carts use 2250lb rated axles. With axle ratings given at 3/4 tested capacity these will easily support loads of 6000lbs. The wheeled cart is built to deminsions that make it easy to transport in the back of a standard pickup. The axles are spaced so that the wheels set around the trucks wheel wells. No need for tie downs of any kind. The cart rolls in an stays in place.

Weight pull slat mills. Designed so that the dog can work the mill from their pulling harness or top attachment. Entry and exit platforms takes the worry out of breaking claws from being pinched in the slats. Front wheels allow easy moving of the mill as the rear platform acts like handles on a wheelbarrow. Inline skate wheels offer less noise with smooth running. Odometer speedometer and timer keep track of your dogs workout.
