Custom Hydraulics

Custom Hydraulics TRACTORS Hydraulics 90-10-91 Getting hydraulic power where it's needed is Don Haacke's business. His company, Responsible Fluid Power, builds stand-alone hydraulic power units of all sizes. "We fabricate all the manifold and reservoir assemblies from scratch, with reservoirs ranging in size from 5 gallons to 2,000 gallons," says Haacke. Haack will custom-build units that meet your needs. They also have standard units in production. With 30 years of experience and a fluid power engineer on staff, there isn't much they can't do. So far his smallest unit is a 4 1/2 hp system to raise and lower trailers. He has also built power units for portable posthole augers, flatbed winches and for use on the back of ATV's. Haacke has standardized his valving options and gear pumps around Subaru engines. However, he will use whatever motor or pto-powered pump the customer prefers or has on hand.
