Hager Equipment:
designing with your mine in mind
H
ager Equipment Co. is a leading innovator in the underground mining equipment industry. It is what we do and it is all we do. Located in Bessemer, Ala., our sole focus is on the underground miner, and to provide him or her with the safest, most cost-effective and durable equipment possible. We understand the demanding environment in most mining operations. Through our products, we have been improving safety and productivity for customers in Canada and the United States for more than 40 years. We offer a wide range of coal, potash and salt mining equipment including shuttle cars, undercutters, loading machines, locomotives and personnel carriers.
Tailored design One of our main core competencies is building custom mining equipment. We understand that conditions are different in every mine and that tailoring our design to meet your needs is paramount to successful operation. Our highly-skilled team of engineers, draftsmen and salesmen will work with you to create the best solution for your mine. We take pride in our work and focus on every detail — even the small ones. If the machine needs to be wider, we will make it wider. If you prefer using a different type of engine or component, we can make that happen. Even if it is something as small as changing the location of one light, we will work with you until the machine fits your specifications.
Safety first Many underground mines require the use of heavy machinery in close quarters with mine personnel. Our number one focus when designing and building our equipment is the safety of the underground miner and his or her colleagues. Every operator cab we build is F.O.P.S. (Falling Object Protection System) and R.O.P.S. (Rollover Protection System) certified. We take this very seriously and do our best to provide the safest equipment possible.

Built to last The underground environment can be harsh and unforgiving, and the employees of Hager Equipment Co. know it well. In fact, many of us are former miners or have spent countless hours underground. Our focused experience enables us to better understand the conditions in your mine and design accordingly. We build every machine with a super-duty frame that is fully welded. Combining this with heavy-duty components and a maintenance-friendly design, Hager Equipment Co. can provide a quality machine that will last for years to come.
