The Allis Chalmers 5050 low profile is a machine built by Allis Chalmers. Production: 1976-1983. The engine delivers 51 hp (38 kW). The engine comes from Fiat. The engine is water-cooled. The model was built in Italy. Rated output across the Allis Chalmers range ranges from 6 to 305 hp; the 5050 low profile sits in the lower part of that range with 51 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 5045 below it with 48 hp and the D17 Series IV above it with 52 hp. Rated output across the Allis Chalmers range ranges from 7.3 to 227 kW; here the 5050 low profile sits at the bottom of that range with 38 kW. 220 Allis Chalmers models across 18 series are on record.

Allis-Chalmers – other models: the collective page of the orange tractors from Milwaukee outside the named ranges, from the 10-18 and 20-35 through the letter models B, C, WC and WD to the 100s (170 to 220)

This page gathers the Allis-Chalmers tractors the register could not assign to a named range – the brand from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, that began in 1914 with the 10-18, was the first maker to introduce pneumatic tyres on a tractor with the Model U in 1932 and created the affordable small tractor for the American family farm with the Model B of 1937, before being sold to Deutz in 1985. The type logic: the early number types 10-18, 12-20 and 20-35 give drawbar and belt power in hp; the letter models A, B, C, CA, WC and WD of the 1930s to 1950s denote model types, not size; the D series (D-10 to D-21) of the 1950s and 1960s orders in ascending order; the 100s (160 to 220) of 1964 to 1975 give roughly the hp class, XT the turbocharger; the 7000s (7010 to 7080) of the 1970s with the Acousta Cab and the 8000s (8010 to 8070) of the 1980s are the last own ranges, the 4W-220 and 4W-305 the articulated tractors, the 5000s and 6000s bought-in compacts from Toyosha and Fiat. The engines are Allis-Chalmers' own as petrol, LPG and diesel versions, Perkins in some diesel models and Toyosha in the Japanese compacts.

The register lists here 115 versions with 6 to 305 hp from two- to eight-cylinders of 1,002 to 11,973 cm³, widths from 915 to 2,438 mm and heights from 1,191 to 3,531 mm.

From the 1930s to the 1970s Allis-Chalmers was the third big American maker after John Deere and International Harvester; the Persian Orange tractors are collectors' pieces today with their own association, and the brand lived on through Deutz-Allis and AGCO Allis until 2001.

On used tractors, originality, engine condition (carburettor on petrol engines, injection pump on diesels), clutch and transmission (Power Director on the D-17 and the 100s), hydraulics (Traction Booster) and sheet metal count; parts run through collector dealers and AGCO for the late ranges.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
