The published ballasted weight is 6,003 lb (2,723 kg). That is up to 2,503 lb (71.5%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.

Is the International Harvester B-275 heavy or light for a utility tractor?

It is close to average for its peer group. The representative figure sits at about the 41st percentile, near the middle of the utility tractor peers. That puts it in the average range for this comparison. It is 1,523 lb lighter than the peer-group average of 5,263 lb.

How wide is the International Harvester B-275 for transport?

The maximum published tractor width is 64 in (5.3 ft). That is 38 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.

What is the International Harvester B-275 weight-to-horsepower ratio?

Using the page’s representative 3,740 lb weight and 38 hp power figure, the tractor carries about 98.4 lb per horsepower. A lower lb/hp number means less tractor mass for each horsepower; this is a comparison metric, not a traction or performance rating.
