Parrett H 12-25: A Timeless American Workhorse

Step back in time with the Parrett H 12-25, a rugged and reliable tractor that embodies the spirit of early 20th-century American agriculture. Built in Chicago, Illinois, USA, between 1918 and 1920, this machine is more than just a piece of equipment; it's a testament to enduring engineering and a vital part of farming history.

Heart of the Machine: The Buda Engine

At the core of the H 12-25 lies a robust, liquid-cooled, 4-cylinder Buda engine. This powerhouse, with a displacement of 312 cubic inches (5.1 L), runs on kerosene and features a Kingston 1.25-inch carburetor for efficient fuel delivery. The water bath air cleaner ensures clean air intake, safeguarding the engine's longevity, while the 4.25x5.50 inch bore and stroke contribute to its dependable performance.

Transmission and Drivetrain: Built for the Fields

Navigating the demands of the farm is made straightforward with the Parrett's unsynchronized gear transmission, offering 2 forward and 1 reverse gear. This robust system, coupled with a two-wheel drive configuration, provides the traction and control needed for a variety of agricultural tasks. The open operator station ensures excellent visibility, keeping you connected to your work.

Power and Capability: Ready for Plowing

The Parrett H 12-25 boasts a claimed drawbar power of 12 hp (8.9 kW) and a significant belt power of 25 hp (18.6 kW). This capability translates into real-world performance, as this tractor was designed to confidently handle up to three 14-inch plows, making it a true workhorse for its era.

Dimensions and Build: Solid as a Rock

Measuring 146 inches (370 cm) in length, 72 inches (182 cm) in width, and 67 inches (170 cm) in height, the H 12-25 is a substantial machine. Weighing in at 5,200 lbs (2358 kg) and fitted with 60x10 steel agricultural rear tires, its solid construction provides stability and durability for demanding field operations.
