Introduction

Case IH Steiger 450 (2011-2013)

The Case IH Steiger 450 is a high-horsepower four-wheel-drive articulated tractor manufactured in Fargo, North Dakota, between 2011 and 2013. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine focuses on high traction capacity and heavy-duty field performance.

Engine and Emissions

The tractor is powered by an Iveco 12.9-liter, 6-cylinder, 24-valve diesel engine. It utilizes wastegate turbocharging and aftercooling to achieve a rated power of 450 hp, with a maximum output of 495 hp. To meet Interim Tier 4 emission standards, the engine incorporates Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The powertrain features a full power shift transmission providing 16 forward and 2 reverse gears. Engagement is managed through electro-hydraulic wet disc clutches, allowing for on-the-go shifting without interrupting power delivery to the four-wheel-drive system.

Hydraulics and PTO

Equipped with a Pressure Flow Compensating (PFC) hydraulic system, the tractor offers a standard pump flow of 35 gpm, with optional configurations reaching 56 gpm (High Flow) or 113 gpm (Twin Flow). The rear hitch is a category 4N type with a lift capacity of 20,000 lbs. The independent rear PTO operates at 1,000 rpm.

Dimensions and Operator Environment

The machine features a 148-inch wheelbase and comes standard with the Surveyor cab, designed for visibility and operator comfort during long field shifts. The base operating weight is approximately 36,048 lbs, which can be increased to a ballasted weight of 49,500 lbs for improved traction in demanding soil conditions.

Conclusion

The Case IH Steiger 450 is engineered for heavy tillage, seeding, and large-scale pulling operations. Its combination of high-capacity hydraulics, robust articulation, and significant ballast capability makes it a suitable choice for professional farming enterprises requiring reliable power for intensive field work.
