A Tractor PTO Shaft, or Power Take-Off shaft, is a mechanical component that transfers power from a tractor to an attached implement, such as a mower, tiller, or baler. It is a critical part of agricultural and industrial machinery, enabling efficient operation of various tools without the need for separate engines.
Our Tractor PTO shafts are designed with precision and durability in mind. Below are the detailed specifications:
| Model | PTO Type | Length (Min-Max) | Max RPM | Torque Capacity (Nm) | Compatible Tractors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PTO-100 | Category 1 | 800-1200 mm | 1000 | 400 | Small to medium tractors |
| PTO-200 | Category 2 | 1000-1500 mm | 540/1000 | 800 | Medium to large tractors |
| PTO-300 | Category 3 | 1200-1800 mm | 1000 | 1200 | Heavy-duty tractors |
What does PTO stand for?
PTO stands for Power Take-Off, which refers to the method of transferring power from a tractor to another piece of equipment.
How do I choose the right PTO shaft for my tractor?
Select a PTO shaft based on your tractor's PTO category (e.g., Category 1, 2, or 3), the required length, torque capacity, and the implement you are using. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for compatibility.
What maintenance does a Tractor PTO shaft require?
Regular maintenance includes lubricating the telescopic parts, inspecting for wear or damage, ensuring safety guards are intact, and checking bolt tightness. Follow the manual for specific intervals.
Can I use a PTO shaft with different RPM ratings?
No, it is crucial to match the PTO shaft's RPM rating with your tractor's PTO output to prevent damage to the shaft, tractor, or implement. Mismatched RPM can lead to failure.
What are the common signs of a failing PTO shaft?
Signs include unusual noises, vibration, difficulty in engaging or disengaging, visible wear on joints or shafts, and leakage from seals. Address these issues immediately to avoid accidents.
Are there safety precautions when using a PTO shaft?
Yes, always ensure the tractor is off when connecting or disconnecting, keep away from rotating parts, use all safety guards, and never operate without proper training or protective gear.
How long does a typical Tractor PTO shaft last?
With proper maintenance, a high-quality PTO shaft can last 5-10 years or more, depending on usage intensity and environmental conditions.
Can I repair a damaged PTO shaft myself?
Simple repairs like replacing shear bolts or lubricating can be done by users, but for major issues such as bent shafts or worn joints, professional service is recommended to ensure safety and performance.
Tractor PTO shafts are used in various applications, including agriculture (e.g., plowing, harvesting), landscaping (e.g., mowing, tilling), and industrial tasks (e.g., driving pumps or generators). Their versatility makes them essential for efficient machinery operation.
