International combine harvester – register of the 1460/1480 range: six-cylinder International DT-436 engine, 7,141.5 cm³, 2,500 rpm

International Harvester was founded in Chicago and was for decades one of the world's largest agricultural-machinery makers before its farm-equipment division became part of Case IH in 1985. This page gathers the register of International combine harvesters with the types 1460 and 1480, belonging to the manufacturer's Axial-Flow range. After the merger with Case, many International sales outlets were absorbed into the new Case IH network.

The register lists 2 versions with the six-cylinder International DT-436 diesel engine (7,141.5 cm³) at 2,500 revolutions per minute.

International's Axial-Flow combines introduced rotary threshing to series production in the late 1970s and stood as the technical counterpart to the established straw-walker combines from John Deere, Claas and Massey Ferguson. Drivetrain parts are usually still easy to source thanks to the kinship with later Case IH models, while body-specific sheet-metal parts are becoming scarcer.

When buying used, check the condition of the threshing rotor and concave, the tightness of the sieve boxes and transport fans, the condition of the header and chopper knives, and the mileage and service history of the DT-436 engine; spare parts today run through the Case IH network and independent agricultural-machinery suppliers. It is also important to check the function of the gearbox and the hydrostatic travel drive, as leaks in these assemblies are common on older combines.
