Introduction
JCB 145T-65: Heavy-Duty 4WD Agricultural Tractor
The JCB 145T-65 is a four-wheel-drive tractor manufactured in Rocester, England, between 1992 and 1993. It belongs to the 125-65 series and is designed for high-demand agricultural operations requiring significant torque and lifting capacity.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Perkins 1000-6T engine, a 6.0-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel unit. It produces a rated power of 147 hp (109.6 kW) at 2600 RPM and generates a maximum torque of 513.9 Nm at 1600 RPM. The engine uses direct injection and is liquid-cooled, relying on a dual dry element air cleaner for intake filtration.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 145T-65 features a synchromesh transmission providing 18 forward and 6 reverse gears, organized into three ranges. Power is delivered to all four wheels through a 4x4 drivetrain, supported by electro-hydraulic differential locks on both the front and rear axles. It utilizes a 350mm dry disc clutch for gear engagement.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 210.0 bar with a pump flow capacity of 60.2 lpm. It is equipped with two valves as standard. The rear hitch is a Category IIIN/III type featuring position and electronic draft control, capable of lifting 12,122 lbs (5,498 kg) at the ends. An optional front hitch with a 6,174 lbs (2,800 kg) lift capacity is available.
Operator Environment and Chassis
The machine is built on a 300 cm wheelbase with an overall length of 576 cm. Braking is handled by pneumo-hydraulic dry disc brakes, complemented by a pneumatic trailer braking system. The operator station consists of a standard cab factory-fitted with air-conditioning to maintain comfort during extended operation.
Conclusion
With its robust Perkins engine and high-capacity hydraulic system, the JCB 145T-65 is engineered for heavy-duty field work and towing. Its combination of 4WD traction, electronic draft control, and operator comfort features makes it a reliable choice for intensive agricultural applications.
