The hallmark of any classic design is its popularity and how well it wears over the years and if RPM Rural Product’s Custom Crush is any indication, it will be popular with cattlemen and livestock owners for many more years to come. RPM recently sold its 10,000th Custom Crush since first hitting the market in 1990.

RPM General Manager John Linnan said it was unsurprising the Custom Crush had proven popular as RPM always took pride in listening to the needs of people in the industry.

“Our customers have always commented on how practical and useful the Custom Crush has been to their operations and 10,000 customers can’t be wrong,” he said.

“It’s a very strong piece of equipment, easy to use and best of all it’s a highly effective product at a very affordable price.”

The Custom Crush features RPM’s ingenious Powerlock linkage, the whisper quiet Hydra-lock Ram and their innovative Rose-joint linkages which reduce maintenance issues and increase usability.

Mr Linnan said the Custom Crush would be a popular piece of equipment for years to come.

“It’s one of the most practical and effective crushes on the market and still has a big future ahead of it,” he said.

“Let’s hope there are 10,000 more sold over the next 20 years.”

Our “Hydra-Lock Ram” and “Powerlock” technology, both of which are exclusive to RPM cattle crushes. Read more about each of these below.

This one piece of equipment provides for a myriad of benefits, ensuring our crushes are the best around. Firstly, it has a ‘whisper quiet’ mechanism due to its passive hydraulic nature, which allows for smooth, silent operation. Secondly, the Hydra-Lock Ram allows for infinite adjustment capabilities when locking the animal’s head in place - an important advantage over a ratchet system because the Hydra-Lock Ram is not restricted by defined settings.

The Hydra-Lock Ram is exclusive to RPM and you won’t find anything similar in our competitor’s products. The Hydra-Lock Ram is an award-winning piece of equipment that has been designed with our customer’s needs in mind to make work for the man on the land a lot easier.

RPM’s POWERLOCK TIGHTENS THE GRIP

This unique piece of equipment has received huge amounts of positive feedback from end-user producers nationwide. A key feature of the Powerlock is that its handles have a drop-away ability for operator safety and are at a user-friendly height for both tall and short people alike. It also has a smooth action that makes the system very easy to use. The Powerlock has been particularly praised by females who often have the task of doing the catching, because of its adjustability and easy operation

The RPM Powerlock system provides front and rear operation for the headbail. The transfer bar, which connects the front and rear handles, is designed so it fits snuggly against the main frame of the crush, providing unimpeded access to the side of the crush and a sleek design.

RPM Rural Products is constantly developing and introducing new products to the market and is committed to innovation now and into the future.
