Brake Band – Lined for International Harvester Tractors

Description

When your tractor’s brakes start feeling soft or you notice that parking brake isn’t holding like it used to, chances are you need a new brake band. This lined brake band is what keeps your International Harvester tractor secure when parked on slopes and provides reliable stopping power for transmission-related braking. Whether you’re working hillsides or just need to feel confident your tractor will stay put, a fresh brake band makes all the difference.

What You’re Getting

• Pre-lined brake band that’s ready to install—no need to hunt for separate lining material
• High-quality friction material that grips tight and provides consistent braking performance
• Heavy-duty construction designed to handle the demands of farm work and frequent use
• Direct replacement that fits like the original—no modifications or adjustments needed

Built for Real Farm Work

This brake band is engineered for International Harvester tractors that rely on internal transmission brakes for parking and auxiliary stopping power. These systems are commonly found on older IH models where mechanical brake bands wrap around drums inside the transmission housing to provide reliable holding force.

Made to Last

The lining material is heat-resistant and formulated to maintain its grip even after repeated use. The band itself is built to handle the stresses of expanding and contracting around the brake drum without cracking or losing its shape over time.

Good to Know

Installation typically requires removing the transmission cover, so this is a job that’s easier with the tractor up on stands. Make sure the brake drum surface is clean and free of oil before installing the new band. A light coating of brake cleaner on the drum helps ensure proper contact and break-in.
