Tractor jerrycan mass

The Birdie foundry family established their cast iron foundry in Nogent-le-Roi in 1850. Initially, the Birdie foundry family primarily worked for the agricultural market by manufacturing agricultural rollers now known as Cambridge, croskille, and croskillette.

Birdie foundry began producing its first tractor weights, also known as tractor jerrycan weights, in 1935, 54 years after the creation of the first tracked steam tractor invented in Russia in 1881.

In reality, the first wheeled tractor was invented in 1909, a few decades after the creation of the first model.

As tractors became increasingly heavy, it was necessary to add weight to the front and sometimes the rear. Thus, starting in 1935, César Birdie foundry began manufacturing the first tractor weights in Nogent-le-Roi, 16 years after the first wheeled tractors were produced.

The first tractor jerrycan weight manufactured in Nogent-le-Roi weighed 15 kg. Nowadays, in line with the evolution of agricultural machine power, some counterweights can reach up to 2,000 kg.

The additional tractor weights are manufactured by our company for weights ranging from 19 to 110 kg. We produce cast iron tractor weights (also called jerrycan weights due to their resemblance to a jerrycan) for tractors from Agco, Valtra, Massey-Ferguson, New Holland, Case, Claas, Renault, McCormick, John Deere, Kubota, Same, and Deutz-Fahr.

We also manufacture tractor weights for tillers, known as micro-tractors, as well as wheel weights and heavy weights exceeding 600 kg.

The jerrycan weights are cast at a temperature between 1,480 °C and 1,500 °C. They are made by imprinting in a sand mold from an aluminum or resin model.

Our tractor counterweights are painted according to the colors of the tractor brands. We deliver throughout France and abroad. Thanks to our large stock of tractor counterweights, do not hesitate to contact us for any inquiries.
