Powder River

Powder River Powder River is the authority in livestock working equipment. Our chutes are built of quality steel in a V style, dual sided squeeze.

We focus on one thing, and that is making effective, durable, and simply the best equipment for producers. Powder River offers a full line of livestock handling equipment, including squeeze chutes, sweep tubs, feeders, gates, panels and loading ramps. We offer a lighter line of chutes, a heavy line, a basic hydraulic and an advanced hydraulic. The entire product line is built to last; when you buy a Powder River you have bought your last one.

Some stories about durability are better told by the people who lived them.

In 2023, F3 tornadoes tore through the Cima family's property in southwest Tennessee, leaving significant damage behind. Their barn was a total loss, but the Powder River squeeze chute they purchased in 2008 was still standing—and even helped protect three baby lambs that were inside.

That chute had already proven itself on the ranch. After the storm, it proved itself all over again.

We’re grateful to the Cima family for sharing their story and trusting Powder River for the work that matters.

Every operation has its own way of doing things. Your equipment should work with it. 🐄

This working system in Heber City, Utah, is designed to keep cattle moving efficiently while giving ranchers the flexibility they need to get the job done.

Whether you're building from the ground up or making a few improvements, Powder River can help you design a system around your operation. Our team can visit your ranch and help identify changes that can make a real difference.

Getting cattle into the chute is only part of the job.

Powder River manual squeeze chutes feature a side exit that can be opened and closed from the opposite side of the chute, giving you more control when it's time to release an animal. It's a simple feature designed with both livestock and handlers in mind—especially when things don't go exactly as planned.

Because a good working system isn't just about getting the job done. It's about having the right features when you need them.

A lot goes into every piece of Powder River equipment. 🔨

Behind every gate, panel, and working system is a team of people welding, finishing, loading, and getting equipment ready for the ranch. From the production floor to the yard, every step matters.

Take a look behind the scenes at the people and process behind the equipment built to keep working, season after season.

Good equipment is best understood in the real world. 🐂
Last week, we welcomed the IFA team to Powder River for some hands-on time with our squeeze chutes and working systems—putting the equipment to work where it matters most: in the pasture.
Thanks to the IFA reps for coming out, getting your hands dirty, asking great questions, and learning what makes Powder River equipment built different.
Whether you’re working a few head or running a full-scale operation, the right equipment makes a difference.

A calm animal is easier to work with—and that's better for everyone.

Powder River's V-style dual-sided squeeze is designed to help keep cattle centered and balanced throughout the squeeze. When animals stay more comfortable, they're less likely to struggle, helping reduce stress while creating a safer, smoother working experience for both livestock and handlers.

Built on experience. Improved with every generation. 🐄

This old footage shows one of our earlier working systems in action. Over the years, Powder River systems have continued to evolve with new features, configurations, and modifications designed around the way cattlemen work.

The equipment evolves. The commitment to better cattle handling stays the same.

No script. Just rodeo. 🤠🐂
This is why every ride keeps fans on the edge of their seats.

The bullfighters are set, the rosin is hot, the rider nods, and...

It's all part of the sport—and it's exactly why we love it.
👇 What's the wildest thing you've ever seen at a rodeo?

The nod. The gate. The moment everything changes. 🤠⚡
There’s nothing quite like the seconds before a ride begins.

A final check. Grit your teeth and nod.
Then it’s just horse, rider, and eight seconds of pure adrenaline.
Rodeo is built on grit, courage, and the willingness to step into the unknown. We're proud to be part of the moments that bring the action to life.
👇 What’s your favorite part of a rodeo ride—the anticipation before the gate opens or the action that follows?
