Bray – further models: the collective page for British industrial tractors and loaders built on Fordson chassis, Centaur, Four 10/60, Four 4/65 and T100, four-cylinder BMC diesel engines with 45 to 48 kW

This page brings together the Bray tractors that the register could not assign to a named series – the Centaur, Four 10/60, Four 4/65 and T100 types. Bray was a British manufacturer that built industrial tractors and wheel loaders on Fordson chassis during the 1950s and 1960s; such conversions strengthened standard Fordson farm tractors for use as loading and construction vehicles with their own hydraulic system and attachments.

The register lists 4 versions here with 45 to 48 kW, or 60 to 65 hp, from four-cylinder BMC diesel engines.

Fordson-based industrial tractors such as the Bray models formed a cost-effective alternative to purpose-built wheel loaders in Britain and its export markets: the robust Fordson chassis and the four-cylinder BMC diesel engine provided the base, while bodybuilders such as Bray added loading gear and lifting attachments. Such conversions were common in construction, ports and agriculture, where a versatile carrier vehicle was needed for earthmoving and material handling.

For a used Bray, the condition of the Fordson chassis, the engine and cooling system of the BMC diesel, the tightness and operation of the loading hydraulics, and wear on the axles, steering and tyres are the key checks. As a small British converter, spare parts today run mainly through Fordson and vintage-vehicle specialists.
