Case IH engineers first introduced the QUADTRAC design in 1996 and it has led
the industry ever since. Like its predecessors, the STX Series QUADTRAC tractor
continues the tradition of setting new industry benchmarks.
The QUADTRAC 380, 430, 480 or 530 in a version with 76 or 91cm tracks
practically “floats” through the fields, giving you a smooth ride with less soil
compaction. That can result in better seed placement, a healthier root zone,
uniform germination and higher yields.
As weight transfer is the key to putting power on the ground, the QUADTRAC
tractor maintains an ideal 50/50 weight distribution under full draft loads. Unlike
a two-track system, which shifts weight from the front to the rear of the track,
the QUADTRAC design evenly divides the weight under load to an almost identical
PSI load at the front and rear of the track. Two-track systems transfer more weight
to the rear, which decreases traction in the front and increases compaction
at the rear. Another advantage of the QUADTRAC design is the positive drive
system. Lugs intersect with bars on the drive wheel to eliminate internal slippage
and ensure minimal ground slippage.
A QUADTRAC tractor offers full-power turns under load, unlike two-track
systems that vary power to each track during turns. This makes it more efficient
in contour and hillside operations because no additional power is required to turn.
Thanks to its built-in weight, a STEIGER or QUADTRAC tractor offers an advantage
over competitive four-wheel drives. Greater gross vehicle weight reduces the
amount of additional ballast needed for peak performance and pulling power. When
necessary, weight can be added to the front or back by attaching cast brackets to
the tractor frame. With the correct ballast, right tyres and recommended PSI, a
Series STEIGER tractor will respond with more pulling power, a smoother ride, and
maximum fuel efficiency.
