Australian Made & Owned

100% Australian Made. Because Quality Matters.

When you work with cattle every day, you need gear that’s built tough to handle it. RPM Livestock Equipment manufactures premium cattle handling equipment - durable crushes, calf cradles and complete yard systems built for the harshest Australian conditions. Owned by a third-generation cattle producer, RPM designs practical, heavy-duty solutions for everyone from small family farms to large NT cattle stations.

High-Quality Equipment for Cattle Yards Across Australia

From heavy-duty headbails and loading ramps to purpose-built calf handling equipment, our solutions improve efficiency, safety and livestock flow while reducing long-term operating costs. Whether you’re managing a small herd in Victoria or running a large station west of Bourke in NSW, RPM builds reliable equipment for your operation.

Air Crushes to Keep Your Cattle Safe

Our air-operated cattle crushes allow for efficient veterinary checks, weighing, hoof trimming, marking and routine livestock management. Designed for smooth, quiet operation, they help reduce animal stress while improving workflow efficiency and overall output.

Locally made tough, for Australian cattle.

Geoff Pearson - a third-generation Australian cattle producer - took over RPM in 2014 and, with the team, built the range to live up to that standard.

About RPM Livestock Equipment

At RPM Livestock Equipment we design and manufacture heavy-duty cattle handling equipment for Australian beef producers who need gear they can rely on when there is work to be done. Proudly Australian owned and operated from Gatton, Queensland, RPM understands cattle handling from a producer’s perspective. Our equipment is designed around the realities of working cattle, helping improve livestock flow, operator safety and efficiency while standing up to demanding Australian conditions.

We do not outsource the manufacture of our cattle equipment. RPM equipment is manufactured at our Gatton facility, giving us control over the materials, fabrication and workmanship that go into every product. From the steel and frames through to the welds, hinges and gates, our equipment is made for long-term use in Australian cattle operations. Our range includes cattle yards, cattle crushes, cattle races, loading ramps, calf handling equipment and cattle yard components, with options to suit different properties, herd sizes and handling requirements.

Home / Spare Parts

Spare Parts

Cattle handling equipment works hard, and over time wheels, pins, struts, seals and other moving components can wear or need replacing. RPM carries replacement and service components for commonly maintained areas of its equipment, so you can repair gear that still has plenty of work left in it. RPM equipment has been manufactured over many years and components differ between models and generations, so before ordering check the model, approximate age, which component needs replacing, measurements where relevant, nearside or offside, and send a photo of the existing part where you can.

A good example is the Headbail Strut: the older version is approximately 1100 mm long and the newer version approximately 750 mm. Send us the model, age, measurements and a photo and we will identify the correct replacement.

Buying through a local consignment stockist also means you can call in, see the equipment and deal with a rural business in your region.
