Keep your herd drinking through hard freezes with the API Stock Tank Drain Plug De-Icer. Install it through the tank’s 3/4 inch drain to warm water efficiently while keeping the element away from noses and hooves. Rely on automatic thermostat control to run only when needed, so you spend less time breaking ice.

Key Features

• 1500 watts of targeted heat: Open water fast in deep cold.
• Drain-plug mount: Positions heat low and out of reach for safer use.
• Stainless steel element: Handles plastic or metal tanks without corroding.
• Thermostatic control with thermal feedback: Helps prevent overheating and saves power.
• Over-temp protection: Adds a safety backstop in extreme conditions.
• 6 ft anti-rub cord: Resists wear along tank edges and rails.
• Made in USA, cULus listed: Built and safety tested for farm use.

Applications

Keep 100 to 300 gallon stock tanks open for cattle, horses, goats, and more. Use it in open lots, barns, or remote paddocks where daily ice chopping steals time and energy. Maintain consistent water access to support intake and reduce stress in winter.
