Description
When you’re pulling heavy implements or working steep ground, reliable brakes aren’t just convenient—they’re critical for safety. If your John Deere 40 or 50 series tractor’s brakes are feeling soft or taking longer to stop, worn brake discs are usually the culprit. This heavy-duty disc set restores the firm, responsive braking you need to work with confidence.
What You’re Getting
- Precise 307mm diameter and 69.8mm width with 15-spline configuration for exact OEM fit
- Reduced 4.95mm thickness design improves brake feel and helps dissipate heat better
- High-quality friction material that grabs consistently, even when wet or muddy
- Built for tractors with serial numbers 668665 and up—the updated brake system design
- Sold as a set so you can replace both sides at once for balanced braking
Built for Real Farm Work
These discs fit the later John Deere 40 and 50 series machines—tractors like the 2555, 2755, 2955, and 3155 that became workhorses on farms from the ’80s through the ’90s. Whether you’re running a disc harrow, pulling a grain cart, or working with a front-end loader, these tractors handle serious work and need brakes that can keep up.
Made to Last
Farm work is tough on brake components, especially when you’re dealing with dust, moisture, and heavy loads. These discs are built with materials that stand up to those conditions while providing consistent stopping power. The improved thickness design helps prevent brake fade during long days in the field.
Good to Know
Always replace brake discs in pairs to keep your braking balanced—mismatched discs can cause the tractor to pull to one side when you brake. Make sure your tractor’s serial number is 668665 or higher before ordering, as earlier tractors use a different disc. If you’re not comfortable with brake work, this is definitely a job for your mechanic.
