Twin City 16-30

Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Twin City 16-30 is a standard-tread tractor known for its simple yet robust design. This model is built with a 4x2 2WD chassis, consisting of a manual steering system alongside a single-speed gear transmission, reflective of its era where simplicity and durability were paramount. As hinted by its model number, the 16-30 was engineered to handle a variety of agricultural tasks with ease. The heart of the Twin City 16-30 lies in its 4-cylinder, 589 ci liquid-cooled vertical engine that operates on kerosene, which was more common in tractors of its time. The ample bore and stroke of 5.00 and 7.50 inches indicate a motor designed for considerable torque output. Its dimensions, with a length of 179 inches, a width of 70 inches, and a height of 72 inches, coupled with a weight of 7800 lbs, demonstrate the heft and presence of this machine in the field. Completed with steel rear tires measuring 54 inches in diameter and 12 inches in width, the 16-30 was built to last and perform under strenuous work conditions.
