New Holland TT55 Horsepower FAQ
How much horsepower does the New Holland TT55 have?
The listed engine output is 55.1 hp, below the 80 hp benchmark average. That is a lower-power result, so the smarter match is lighter implements and jobs that do not demand more than about 55.1 hp.
How much PTO horsepower does the New Holland TT55 have?
The listed PTO output is 47 hp, below the 65 hp benchmark average. For real use, size PTO implements below or near 47 hp rather than using a bigger engine-horsepower number.
How much engine power reaches the PTO on the New Holland TT55?
The PTO-to-engine transfer works out to 85.3%, from 55.1 engine hp to 47 PTO hp. That is a normal usable range for judging PTO implement fit.
How big is the New Holland TT55 engine?
The engine displacement is 179 ci, below the 260 ci benchmark average. Smaller displacement usually means less engine size behind each horsepower number.
Is the New Holland TT55 engine stressed for its PTO horsepower?
The engine has about 3.8 cubic inches per PTO hp, using 179 ci and 47 PTO hp. That is close to the normal benchmark for this category.
How much PTO horsepower per liter does the New Holland TT55 make?
The output density is about 16.2 PTO hp per liter, using 47 PTO hp and 2.9 L of displacement. Higher hp/L means more output squeezed from each liter; lower hp/L usually means a more relaxed engine tune.
How much torque does the New Holland TT55 have?
The listed torque is 136.1 lb-ft, below the 240 lb-ft benchmark average. With 136.1 lb-ft listed, gearing matters more when the tractor is loaded hard.
Does the New Holland TT55 have good torque for its PTO horsepower?
The torque-to-PTO-power figure is about 2.9 lb-ft per PTO hp, using 136.1 lb-ft and 47 PTO hp. A higher number usually points to a slower, gruntier working feel.
What rpm is the New Holland TT55 rated at?
The rated speed is 2,500 rpm, above the 2,200 rpm benchmark average. A higher 2,500 rpm rating can make power well but may feel busier under load.
Horsepower and engine specs can vary by year, market, engine option, fuel system, test standard and tractor configuration. Check the operator manual, spec plate, parts book and official newholland.com website before buying parts, sizing implements or making repair decisions.
