Disc for a H

beochie · Apr 13, 2009

I was wondering what size disc I should get for my H. it runs really good but I wouldnt say like new

10' too much? I dont want to really strain it(her)

A good 8 foot disk would work well, and not abuse her, also depends on the soil type too.

8ft is about right,10ft is a hek of a pull on an H.

one thing to cinsider it weather you want a cutting or a pulverizing disc, Cutting dick has a wider space between the blades IE; 6' 7' 8' 9'

Get it down to a6 or 7'at the most and you will have it about right.

Minimum 7 foot max 8 foot.

I got a 12' IH and would trade for a 8" Ih if any one is interested.

Guess there's some "depends" here. I used to pull a 1929 IHC double 7' disk with two different H's. The disk originally came with a 10-20 on steel, which could pull the disk in plowed ground only in second. The H, which is supposed to be in the same power category, did exactly the same thing, second gear only in freshly plowed ground.
My "depends" has to do with modern disks, which may have taller disks, cut more, need more power.
Of course it also depends on how rank a cut you try to take with any disk.
Anyway, 7' is probably right. Smaller would not give the tractor much of a load, but you might be able to move faster.
In rough ground, going faster might be hard on the implement. Ten foot disk was considered normal load for an M way back when.
