Introduction

Fiat 160-90 Row-Crop Tractor

The Fiat 160-90 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1984 and 1994. Designed for demanding agricultural applications, this model belongs to the Fiat 90 series and was engineered as a high-horsepower solution for large-scale farming operations.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the Fiat-Iveco 8365.25 turbocharged diesel engine. This 8.1-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled unit features direct injection and generates a rated power of 160 hp (119.3 kW) at 2200 RPM. The engine cooling is supported by a dry two-stage air cleaner and a thermostart pre-heating system for reliable cold-weather starting.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Two transmission configurations were available: a 24-speed partial power shift system and a 16-speed mechanical shuttle. The partial power shift variant provides four power-shift gears across three ranges, with an additional creeper mode. Power is delivered through a hydraulic wet disc clutch, and the tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations with power steering and hydraulic differential locks.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system provides a pump flow of 14.8 gpm (56.0 lpm) with three valves and an oil capacity of 14.8 gallons. The rear hitch is a Category II type with a lift capacity of 14,661 lbs (6,650 kg). The independent rear PTO supports 540 and 1000 RPM speeds, engaged via a hydraulic wet disc clutch.

Dimensions and Operator Environment

The 160-90 features a standard cab equipped with air conditioning. The 4WD model has a wheelbase of 113.6 inches and an operating weight of 18,662 lbs, while the 2WD model weighs 17,086 lbs with a 116.7-inch wheelbase. Various tire configurations were offered to accommodate specific soil conditions and row-crop requirements.

Conclusion

"The Fiat 160-90 is a heavy-duty tractor engineered for high-draft work and demanding field tasks. Its combination of a high-torque 8.1-liter engine, substantial hydraulic lift capacity, and versatile transmission options makes it a robust tool for professional agricultural environments."
