Introduction

Case IH STX440 Four-Wheel Drive Tractor

The Case IH STX440 is a high-horsepower four-wheel drive tractor produced in 2001, belonging to the STX series manufactured in Fargo, North Dakota. This machine is engineered for heavy-duty agricultural applications requiring significant tractive effort and hydraulic capacity.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a 14.9-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. Utilizing a turbocharged and aftercooled induction system, it delivers 440 horsepower at 2000 rated RPM. The engine produces a peak torque of 1650 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, providing the high-torque characteristics necessary for deep tillage and large-scale farming operations.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The STX440 features a full power shift transmission providing 16 forward gears and 2 reverse gears, allowing for on-the-go shifting without clutch engagement. Power is transferred to the ground via a four-wheel drive system equipped with compound planetary final drives and hydrostatic power steering for maneuverability. Braking is managed by integrated hydraulic wet disc brakes.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center load-sensing configuration designed to optimize flow based on implement demand. The base pump provides 40 gpm, with an optional configuration reaching 55 gpm. The rear of the tractor is equipped with a Category IVN hitch offering a lift capacity of 19,500 lbs (8,845 kg), supported by 4 to 7 rear remote valves to accommodate complex implement requirements.

Dimensions and Construction

Built on a chassis with a 154-inch wheelbase and a 44-inch frame width, the STX440 is designed for stability under heavy loads. It is fitted with 20.8R42 tires on both front and rear axles. The Surveyor Cab is standard, providing the operator with environmental control and visibility for long work periods.

Conclusion

The Case IH STX440 is a specialized heavy-duty tractor intended for large-acreage operations. Its combination of high torque output, robust hydraulic flow, and power shift transmission suits it for intensive primary cultivation and high-capacity implement management.
