Hydrabed
The Bale Bed Ranchers Have Trusted Since 1983
Load, haul and unroll hay directly from your pickup. With up to 3,000 pounds of lifting capacity and proven hydraulic power, HydraBed turns your truck into one of the hardest-working pieces of equipment on the ranch.
One Truck. A Whole Lot More Capability.
Feeding shouldn’t require starting the tractor every time. HydraBed gives your ¾-ton or larger pickup the power to load, transport and unroll large round or square bales while remaining ready to pull trailers, haul equipment and handle everyday ranch work.
Feed Where the Cattle Are
Load and unroll hay directly from your pickup, even in remote pastures and uneven terrain. Mechanical free-float arms follow the ground while helping protect the truck from the impact of unrolling.
Built to Handle Heavy Bales
A 3,000-pound lift capacity, automatic arm synchronization and a 28- to 92-inch grip range provide dependable control of large or irregular bales.
More Than a Bale Bed
Pull trailers, move equipment, handle fencing supplies and power compatible hydraulic accessories. An integrated gooseneck ball and receiver hitch keep your truck ready for work year-round.
Choose the Power and Control That Fit Your Operation
Configure your HydraBed with an engine-driven clutch pump, electric-over-hydraulic system or available PTO setup for qualifying Ford trucks. Multiple control options—including cable controls, pendant, wireless remote and the HydraSTX® variable-speed joystick system—let you build the bed around the way you work.
Top Hand Ag Equipment can help match the correct bed, power system and controls to your truck and daily workload.
Proven Power. Built for the Long Haul.
HydraBed introduced the original flush-mounted, self-storing bale handler in 1983. Decades later, producers continue to trust its straightforward hydraulics, rugged arm design and dependable performance through long feeding seasons and demanding ranch work.
