CATTLE CRUSHES
Portable and Hydraulic Cattle Crushes Built for Serious Beef Producers
Australian-Made Cattle Crushes for Every Operation, From Family Farms to Feedlots
A cattle crush is a purpose-built restraint that holds cattle securely so you can safely treat, drench, tag, or pregnancy test them. RPM Livestock Equipment manufactures portable cattle crushes and hydraulic cattle crush models in Australia, from entry-level vet cattle crushes for small operators to commercial-grade crushes for full-scale feedlots.
Every RPM cattle crush is 100% Australian-made from galvanised high-tensile steel, built to handle harsh yards and big stock. All models have split-gate access and a hydraulic head bail, and the Allrounder and Ultimate add a parallel squeeze. Choose from the Vetless Innovator, Innovator, Allrounder, or Ultimate, with vet-ready options to suit a few heads or a full commercial operation.

Why Beef Producers Choose RPM Cattle Crushes
Beef producers choose RPM cattle crushes because they are Australian-made, heavy-duty, and designed for safe, efficient handling, with models for every herd size, from hobby farms to feedlots.
-

Heavy-duty construction: No rattles and no light-gauge gear, just a solid cattle crush that lasts in harsh yards.
-
A model for every operation: From the entry-level Vetless Innovator to the commercial-grade Ultimate, there’s an RPM cattle crush to suit your yard design and workflow. Compare crush options.
-
Smooth, safe operation: Designed for stock safety and handler comfort, with quiet hydraulic head bail operation that keeps cattle calm.
-
Streamlined handling: Split gates, vet-ready options, and easy flow-through designs make the job faster and less stressful for you and your cattle. The Allrounder and Ultimate add a parallel squeeze.
Hydraulic vs Ratchet Head Bails on Cattle Crushes: Why Producers Are Switching
A hydraulic head bail secures cattle with hydraulic pressure instead of a manual ratchet, making it quieter, faster, and easier on the operator. RPM’s hydraulic head bails come on every RPM cattle crush, from the Vetless Innovator to the Ultimate.
-
Faster and quieter: Less noise means calmer cattle and smoother handling.
-
One-touch operation: Saves time and reduces strain on the operator’s body.
-
No ratchet teeth, no chocking: You don’t need to chock cattle while releasing a ratchet, so younger or smaller operators can run the crush safely.
-
Reliable and safe: Hydraulic control gives the power and precision to secure cattle of all sizes with confidence.
Whether you’re upgrading your yard or building from scratch, RPM cattle crushes give serious producers dependable performance, day in, day out. Compare RPM cattle crush models or call (07) 5462 3433 for a quote.
