Introduction
Eagle Manufacturing H 22-45: Historical Standard-Tread Tractor
The Eagle Manufacturing H 22-45 is a vintage standard-tread tractor produced between 1920 and 1930 in Appleton, Wisconsin, USA. This machine serves as a representative example of early 20th-century agricultural engineering.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by an Eagle Manufacturing 2-cylinder, 4-valve engine with a displacement of 113.5 cubic inches (1.9 L). It utilizes a liquid-cooling system and operates on kerosene. The engine is designed for a rated speed of 450 RPM, with a bore and stroke of 8.50 by 1.00 inches (216 x 25 mm). Starting is accomplished via a traditional hand-crank mechanism.
Transmission and Mechanical Layout
The H 22-45 features a gear-based transmission system delivering power to the rear wheels in a two-wheel drive configuration. Steering is handled manually, and the tractor is designed with an open operator station, providing standard visibility and control for the era.
Power Output
The machine provides two primary power metrics: a claimed drawbar power of 22 hp (16.4 kW) for pulling implements, and a claimed belt power of 45 hp (33.6 kW) for stationary machinery operation.
Conclusion
The Eagle Manufacturing H 22-45 is a classic tractor characterized by its two-cylinder architecture and substantial belt power. It is primarily suited for historical preservation and collection, reflecting the mechanical standards of American agricultural manufacturing in the 1920s.
