Big Horn Slide for Sale | 14.2–18m 4-Person Raft Water Slide | FRP 304SS | 12-Year Warranty
Meta Description: Commercial Big Horn Slide (giant horn funnel) with 14.2–18.0m platform, 4-rider raft, FRP shell + 304 stainless steel Ø273×3mm columns, Ashland gel coat, 12-year structural warranty. Custom height/width/color by budget. Free 3D layout from your DWG.
The Ride Experience – “Swallowed by the Horn”
Four guests board a clover-shaped inflatable raft at the 14.2m, 16m, or 18m platform. A short enclosed dark drop builds speed to 12–16 m/s, then the raft erupts into the 18m-diameter fiberglass horn, swinging side-to-side on centrifugal force — weightless at the crest, screaming at the wall, then spiraling down the throat into the splash pool.
It is the signature group thrill of any water park: faster-feeling than a body slide, safer than a freefall, and photographed by every guest in line. Hourly throughput 360–480 riders/lane makes it a payback workhorse, not just a landmark.

Why 12 Years? Material Breakdown
FRP shell: Multi-layer hand-laid fiberglass, 8–12mm, ISO-NPG / Ashland gel coat → anti-UV, anti-chlorine, no peel, no rust.
304SS Ø273×3mm columns: Zero corrosion in humid pool air; 3mm wall takes cantilever horn load without deflection.
SUS304 bolts & grates: No galvanic rust, no annual repaint.
Result: 12-year written structural warranty; 15+ year service life with quarterly rinse and annual bolt-torque check.
Customization — Width / Color / Height / Budget
Height: 14.2m (tight site) → 18.0m (max thrill). Rule: +1m height ≈ +8–12% steel + foundation cost.
Width: Standard 2.73m; widen to 3.0m for 4 large adults, or narrow to 2.4m for smaller horn (cost drops ~6–9%).
Color: Any RAL; dual-tone horn, rainbow stripe, logo embedded in gel coat (no stickers).

FAQ (rich-snippet ready)
Q: Is 14.2m safe for family parks?
A: Yes — slower entry speed than 18m, still 4-person raft, still horn swing. Many resort parks choose 14.2m to cut tower cost.
Q: Can I get 3-person or 5-person raft?
A: Standard is 4. Raft size scales with inner width (2.4–3.0m). Tell us target rider weight and we size the raft.
Q: Does price include pump and filtration?
A: No. EXW quote covers slide + steel + rafts. Pump room (90kW, 960m³/h) quoted separately or as add-on BOM.
