Case IH 205 Combine Parts
205 parts and accessories
The Case IH 205 combine, manufactured in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was a popular choice among farmers seeking a reliable and efficient grain harvesting solution. Powered by an International Harvester diesel engine producing around 100 horsepower, the 205 offered header widths ranging from 13 to 15 feet. Its conventional separator design provided effective threshing and grain separation, making it a cost-effective and dependable machine for various crops.
The Case IH 205 combine harvester was a staple in the agricultural industry during its production run from the late 1970s to the early 1980s. It utilized an International Harvester diesel engine, typically a 358 cubic inch displacement engine, delivering approximately 100 horsepower. This power drove a conventional threshing system, relying on a cylinder and concave design for grain separation. The grain tank held roughly 85 bushels, and the unloading auger could empty the tank at a rate of around 45 bushels per minute. Operators had the option of using header widths spanning from 13 to 15 feet, allowing for efficient harvesting in varied field conditions. While chopper and spreader options were not as advanced as later models, the 205's simple cab design provided basic operator comfort. The 205 was known for its effectiveness in harvesting wheat, soybeans, and corn, offering a balance of performance and affordability for many farms. Regular maintenance was key to keeping this workhorse running efficiently.
