Hydraulic Cattle Chutes
Arrowquip Ranch Equipment
A hydraulic cattle chute is a squeeze chute operated with hydraulic controls for the head gate, tail gate, squeeze, and head sweep. A well-designed hydraulic chute follows low-stress cattle handling practices to keep both livestock and ranchers safe. When choosing hydraulic cattle handling equipment, look for durable, quiet builds with engines placed away from the animal’s line of sight, top-mounted engines can create noise that spooks cattle and makes them chute shy.
