Allis-Chalmers RT-100 A to RT-165 A – heavy US tractors with six-cylinder diesels throughout, 94 to 145 kW, 5,440 to 7,920 kg
The RT-100 A to RT-165 A line covers heavy tractors from the American maker Allis-Chalmers, whose name is recorded in the register as 'Allis Cleaner Corporation'. Allis-Chalmers was founded in 1901 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and built farm machinery into the 1980s, before its tractor division passed to Deutz in 1985 and continued as Deutz-Allis, later AGCO-Allis; since the 1990s the brand has belonged to AGCO. The six versions listed here, RT-100 A to RT-165 A, all carry the A designation and differ by an ascending number that tracks the power class.

The register lists 6 versions rated at 94.1 to 144.9 kW from six-cylinder diesel engines of 6,596 to 7,365 cm³, torque of 555 to 859 Nm at around 2,200 rpm, kerb weights of 5,440 to 7,920 kg, and a length of 4,656 to 5,334 mm, a width of 2,009 to 2,014 mm and a height of 2,951 to 3,099 mm.
With kerb weights from just over five and a half to nearly eight tonnes and six-cylinder diesels throughout, the line ranks among the heavy standard tractors for large arable operations, of the kind used in North America for high drawbar output and wide implements. The narrow numbering span and the consistent six-cylinder layout point to a stepped line built on a shared platform.
On these heavy machines, check engine condition and the injection system, clutch and power-shift transmission, the hydraulic pump and lines, and the frame and front-axle bearings; on machines of this age, also check for corrosion on the wings and cab and the condition of the tyres. Spares for Allis-Chalmers tractors today mostly run through specialist farm-machinery dealers and the AGCO network.

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.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
