International 955 1055 Tractor Brake Return Spring 3233488R1

Key Features:

• Part Number: 3233488R1
• Application: Specifically designed for International 955 and 1055 tractors, commonly used in agricultural and industrial settings.
• Function: The brake return spring is a critical component of the tractor’s brake system. It is responsible for pulling the brake components back to their resting position when the brake pedal is released. This ensures that the brakes do not remain engaged after the operator releases the pedal, preventing unnecessary wear on the brake system and ensuring safe operation.
• Durability: Made from high-quality, durable materials to withstand the harsh conditions of agricultural work, including exposure to dirt, moisture, and heavy usage.
• Design: Designed to fit the specific brake system of the International 955 and 1055 tractors, ensuring proper functionality and ease of installation.

Applications:

The brake return spring is used in the brake mechanism of the International Harvester 955 and 1055 series tractors. It plays an essential role in the tractor’s braking system by:

• Ensuring proper brake pedal return action.
• Allowing the brake system to disengage fully when the pedal is released, preventing drag on the brake components.
• Reducing wear and tear on the brake pads, discs, and other components.

Common Issues:

• Brake Drag: If the brake return spring becomes weak or breaks, it can cause the brakes to drag, leading to overheating of the brake system and excessive wear.
• Brake Failure: A broken or damaged return spring can result in the tractor’s brakes not disengaging properly, leading to safety concerns.

Compatibility:

• This spring is specifically compatible with the International 955 and 1055 series tractors. If you’re replacing the spring, it is crucial to ensure that you are using the correct part number, 3233488R1, to guarantee compatibility.

Installation:

• Replacement Process: Installing this return spring typically involves disengaging certain components of the brake system, removing the old spring, and attaching the new one in the correct orientation. It’s recommended to consult the tractor’s service manual for detailed instructions or seek professional assistance if needed.

Availability:

This part is commonly available through authorized International Harvester dealers, online agricultural parts suppliers, or aftermarket parts retailers.

Importance of Regular Maintenance:

• The brake return spring, like other components in the brake system, should be inspected regularly for wear or damage as part of your routine tractor maintenance. Keeping the spring in good condition helps maintain the overall safety and efficiency of the tractor’s braking system.

Replacing a worn or damaged brake return spring can help ensure that your tractor operates safely and efficiently, reducing the risk of brake system issues and extending the lifespan of other related components.
