The register lists here 7 versions with an output of 26 kW (35 hp) from four-cylinders of 2,360 cm³ displacement, unladen weights of 1,605 to 1,640 kg, lengths of 2,840 to 2,910 mm, widths of 1,750 to 2,250 mm; also recorded are a height of 1,540 mm, a gross weight of 2,240 kg and a torque of 129 Nm at a rated speed of 1,875 rpm.
The B-275 is among the most-built IH Doncaster tractors of its class and was a widespread all-purpose tractor for smaller and mid-sized farms in Britain and the Commonwealth, with which International Harvester competed against Ferguson and Fordson. Its four-cylinder diesel and simple mechanical layout made it a straightforward tractor to maintain, which contributed to its long service life on many farms.
On the used B-275, engine and injection-pump condition, clutch and gearbox, rust on bodywork, mudguards and radiator, and the originality of seat, mudguards and lighting count; parts run through dealers and clubs specialising in IH classics.

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.
- 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.
